• The Journey to the Security Service Edge 10:30 am

  Presented by Axis Security

  Due to the growth of “Cloud” over the past ten years, organizations have moved from the data center to “centers of data”. As applications are now distributed, the networks and security solutions have become more complex and brittle. Adding fuel to this fire of complexity, network and security solutions must now address the demands of the hybrid workforce. In this talk, John will discuss how you can use Security Service Edge in a simple way to solve some of the complex network security problems no matter how large your organization.

• Refuse the Ransom: Need for a Scaleable Response Strategy 11:30 am

  Presented by Cohesity

  An adversary who attacks an organization from within can prove fatal to the business and is generally impervious to conventional defenses. Social science research has been used to explain why traditional methods fail against these trusted betrayers.  Every company must identify and utilize new management techniques, increase security, and revise workplace strategies for categorizing and defeating insider threats.

  There are key players in positions to either effectively support or undermine the insider threats.  Leadership style can make a difference in the way an institution recognizes and identifies these threats from rethinking background investigations to recognizing deception and using lawful disruption. Join this session to learn about how organizations must circumvent these predators before they jeopardize the workplace and sabotage business operations.

  We’ve seen the real-world consequences of cyberattacks – from the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline to the slowing of care for hospital patients, to major disruptions in the food supply lines.

• Guest Keynote Presentation – Mark Sangster 3:40 pm

  Finding Factors not Fault: Building Cyber Resilience

  Given 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 an organization’s security, or worse, bury the true causes of incidents and lead to repeated data breaches or operations disrupting cyber incidents. Join Mark Sangster, author of No Safe Harbor and Adlumin Chief of Strategy, as he explores a famous aviation accident to identify human biases, best practice root cause analysis, and explores how blaming single factor robs us of the opportunity to identify system causes and make the changes necessary to prevent repeat incidents. 

  • Explore human biases and how they skew our findings
  • Examining a full range of factors and documenting impact
  • Continuous improvement through impartial examination
