However, don’t just buy the penetration test and wait for the results; there are numerous things you can do to ensure you wring out every last drop of value.

Add to Calendar 07/27/2023 10:55 AM 07/27/2023 11:15 AM Getting Ahead of The Breach

The day of a breach, commonly referred to as "cyber game day," is not the opportune moment to determine your ability to effectively counteract an attack and execute an effective incident response. One must adopt an attacker's mindset as the sole means of honing their craft. It is imperative to assess one's capabilities prior to the actual breach proactively. Learn how to rigorously challenge and evaluate the efficacy of your preventive and detection measures in the face of real-world attacks on a continuous basis. Quantify your security posture and how to ensure confidence in your resilience to everyday threat actors in an ever changing threat landscape.

You Can Stop Stupid

Add to Calendar 07/27/2023 04:20 PM 07/27/2023 04:30 PM America/Los_Angeles Signed Books by Keynote Speaker Ira Winkler

Stopping Losses from Accidental and Malicious Actions

Around the world, users cost organizations billions of dollars due to simple errors and malicious actions. They believe that there is some deficiency in the users. In response, organizations believe that they have to improve their awareness efforts and making more secure users. This is like saying that coalmines should get healthier canaries. The reality is that it takes a multilayered approach that acknowledges that users will inevitably make mistakes or have malicious intent, and the failure is in not planning for that. It takes a holistic approach to assessing risk combined with technical defenses and countermeasures layered with a security culture and continuous improvement. Only with this kind of defense in depth can organizations hope to prevent the worst of the cybersecurity breaches and other user-initiated losses.

Using lessons from tested and proven disciplines like military kill-chain analysis, counterterrorism analysis, industrial safety programs, and more, Ira Winkler and Dr. Tracy Celaya’s You CAN Stop Stupid provides a methodology to analyze potential losses and determine appropriate countermeasures to implement.

Minimize business losses associated with user failings
Proactively plan to prevent and mitigate data breaches
Optimize your security spending
Cost justify your security and loss reduction efforts
Improve your organization’s culture

Business technology and security professionals will benefit from the information provided by these two well-known and influential cybersecurity speakers and experts.
