Dallas Cybersecurity Conference

Thank goodness 2023 is over! Recession, staff reductions, continued cyber attacks, and more breaches! The time is now to consider changing things up! Traditional security solutions such as basic firewalls, vulnerability management, and endpoint detections is just not sufficient for the onslaught of different tactics by attackers. Let 19X Microsoft MVP Derek Melber guide you through some radical thinking regarding the various aspects of securing your endpoints, servers, data, resource access, and more. Just a hint: good core security starts with good security hygiene! By the time you are finished with this engaging keynote, you will want to start analyzing your current approach and considering how you will revamp your security strategies to make a bigger impact in your overall security risk and hygiene.

The rapid proliferation of SaaS has created new challenges for organizations as they struggle to effectively manage access and entitlements across applications. Unmanaged access and identities have emerged as the primary attack vectors, leaving organizations vulnerable to identity-related breaches as threat actors exploit unchecked access. In this session, learn how Zluri can serve as your frontline defense against security threats in the modern, SaaS-first workplace.

Key Discussion points:

• Comprehensive visibility into all apps, users, roles, and entitlements
• Enforce access controls through policy-driven workflows that govern who gets access to what app/resource.
• Mitigate security risks & insider threats with automated access reviews.
• Continuously monitor access to detect anomalous entitlements and revoke unauthorized access before it leads to a breach.

With cybersecurity, success is not solely determined by technological fortifications but by the collaboration, synergy, and unified efforts of an organization. This keynote delves into the strategic imperative of treating cybersecurity as a “team sport.” Hear insights into the CISO’s playbook, exploring the vital role of cross-functional collaboration, organizational culture, and effective communication in achieving cybersecurity triumphs. Learn how fostering a united front can elevate your organization’s resilience and position it as a formidable force against evolving cyber threats.
