Managed Threat and Response Services 9:14 am
Presented by Sophos
Click to Expand“It’s dangerous to go alone! Take this.” So read the first lines of dialogue in the 1986 Nintendo classic The Legend of Zelda when your character, a young adventurer, is bequeathed a sword to fend off the forces of evil he will face on his impending quest. It’s a reference that may not be as familiar to you as it is to me, but the sentiment should still hold true as we begin our partnership: You are no longer alone… Is Managed Detection and Response (or MDR) something that’s been on your radar? And if not specifically by name (after all, we love our acronyms in security), have you ever had a discussion about the potential of using a partner to support your security program? In this session we will explore Managed Services as a concept, explore its beginnings, and differentiate between the options offered by the industry.

Shifting PAM into High Gear with Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) 10:15 am
Presented by Remediant
Click to ExpandZero Standing Privilege (PAM) was a new term introduced in 2019 and might just be the best approach to shift your PAM strategy into high gear. In this short presentation, we’ll discuss how PAM projects were managed historically and highlight a new PAM approach to reduce the impact of compromised admin credentials.
Do you know what admin credentials exist today or even how they change over time in your organization? This is just one of several challenges we’ll discuss, offer a solution and discuss the need and value of frequent scanning of admin rights, reporting on current standing privileges and the adoption of a ZSP and Just-In-Time administration.
So, if you’re looking for quick wins in PAM, including removing local admin rights and support for DevOps+PAM use cases, join the discussion and learn how other organizations like yours have succeeded.
