The Last Line of Defense: The Importance of Having a Robust and Comprehensive Data Protection Strategy 11:15 am
Presented by Pure Storage
Click to ExpandData protection is experiencing a resurgence. Historically its been seen as an innovation backwater and as “insurance”, but with the growth of ransomware and cyber crime, and increasing risk, organisations are having to modernize their data protection architectures and strategies to ensure that data can be recovered quickly to ensure that an Organisation can survive an attack. Join this session to learn about the latest innovations in the data protection space and how they can be deployed to provide a comprehensive last line of defence.

Should Be Stopping Attacker Movement They Reach Your Crown Jewels 11:35 am
Presented by Illusive
Click to ExpandDuring a normal workday, credentials and connections proliferate within a network. Once inside, attackers use Mimikatz and other attack tools to automate and accelerate credential harvesting, network discovery, and privilege escalation. Until now, defenders have lacked the ability to get ahead of this process. Identifying and removing excess, high-risk, and rogue connections has been a manual effort and impossible to scale. The giant, sudden transition by millions of employees to working from home has only made the attack surface even more volatile.
In this webinar, we examine the various ways to deprive attackers of what they need to move laterally in your network by identifying and removing the riskiest pathways that lead to your crown jewels including:
How normal business activity creates dangerous opportunities for malicious lateral movement
The cyber hygiene functions needed to harden the network against modern APT attacks
How continuous visibility into your attack surface can augment other core security functions, such as privileged access management (PAM) and vulnerability management

Pragmatic Protection From Insider Threats 1:10 pm
Presented by Sherpa Software
Click to ExpandEven prior to COVID-19, more people were working from home than ever before. According to the Bureau of Labor, 25% of Americans performed some work from their homes in 2017-2018. Additionally, the Federal Reserve reports that the share of the workforce that works from home has tripled in the last 15 years. In this session we’ll talk about the insider threat considerations — both intentional and accidental — that a dispersed workforce can present. We’ll also share some real-world examples of the steps our Fortune 100 customers are taking to mitigate their insider risk factors.

Identity and Access Management: Embracing the Complexity 1:30 pm
Presented by Auth0
Click to ExpandAdmittedly, IAM can be intimidating. Ensuring company assets are being accessed only by those who are authorized is a crucial, non-trivial task but we should embrace the challenge. In this session we will discuss the complexities of IAM by reviewing what digital identity really is, and what challenges exist when implementing access management controls. We will discuss a typical IAM use-case and how we can embrace its complexities while avoiding the need for large architectural changes.

Q&A: Grey Crime - The Rise of State Sponsored Attacks on Business 2:10 pm
Click to Expand
Nation-State attacks are not always focused on political or military adversaries. Recently, below-military-grade action can create havoc or destabilize adversaries, or manipulate markets. Hard to trace and even harder to convict, they may affect stock price or even influence the outcome of elections.
Our panelists today will talk about the problem, and what US enterprises are doing to prepare themselves for these situations

Building Cyber Resilience: Finding Factors Not Fault 4:00 pm
Presented by eSentire
Click to ExpandGiven an outcome, we often exaggerate our ability to predict and therefore avoid the same fate. In cybersecurity, this misconception can lead to a false sense of corporate security, or worse, bury the true causes of incidents and lead to repeated data breaches or business disrupting cyber incidents. In this session, we will explore real-world incidents and threats to assemble an actionable cyber resilience framework that adapts to distributed assets, remote workers, and virtual workloads.

Do’s and Don’ts for Business Email Compromise (BEC) and Email Account Compromise (EAC) 4:15 pm
Presented by Proofpoint
Click to ExpandEmail fraud leads to two main threats- one is Business Email Compromise (BEC) where attackers pretend to be you; the other one is Email Account Compromise (EAC) where attackers actually become you. BEC/EAC scams have cost the victimized businesses over $26 billion since 2016. What they have in common is that they both target people. They both rely on social engineering and are designed to solicit fraudulent wire transfers or payment. Unlike malware attacks, BEC and EAC don’t typically include detectable malicious payload. These types of threats can be hard to recognize because to the target these business requests sent by the impostors seem very routine and reasonable.
Join our session and learn about:
- What is BEC and EAC? And how do they work?
- What are the common attack tactics regarding this new form of email threats?
- Best practices to defend against BEC and EAC
