A cybersecurity framework helps businesses develop a structured approach to securing their systems. This session will focus on the practical implementation of security measures; how to prioritize and get the maximum benefit from your resources. The discussion will be framed around the Center for Internet Security's Critical Controls, although several frameworks will be briefly discussed. The focus will be on protecting against ransomware while still taking a holistic approach. The discussion will be directed from the management or IT governance direction rather than from an engineering or systems approach.

User Experience Insights: Organizations of all sizes are increasingly focused on improving line-of-business and end-user experience. Managing distributed or remote locations adds complexity and can quickly consume resources. Continuous growth of mobility, IoT and cloud apps highlights the importance of operating your network with the most complete view possible. This session will introduce new tools to help engineers, managers and CTOs understand the experience that people are having on their network. Join us to learn how User Experience Sensors can be deployed in minutes, have a low entry cost and work on any vendor’s network.

Ransomware attacks continue to rise in volume, severity, and costs to businesses attacked while cyber criminals continue inventing new and unexpected methods to spread malware and encrypt critical data. As attacks continue to specialize, no organization is immune to ransomware. So how do you avoid being forced to pay a ransom, disruptions to services and supply chains, and damage to your brand in the news? Join recovery and data protection experts from Zerto to discuss best practices for when – not if – ransomware strikes. Be prepared to minimize downtime, data loss, and mitigate the risks of ransomware. In this session, you’ll learn:

• Ransomware 101: A breakdown of a ransomware attack and how it affects systems
• Steps you can take to reduce the likelihood of attacks on your system
• How to choose a best-in-class recovery solution for ransomware
• How you can best harden your recovery systems against attacks
• How to create a recovery plan to react and recover quickly
• Real example of a company hit twice by ransomware and how they improved recovery time from weeks to minutes by planning ahead

This discussion will cover a set of policies that will address the necessary functions to implement a standard Information Security Management System (ISMS) which aligns with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Framework for Cybersecurity and provides for compliance with most statutory requirements.

Multi-Cloud. A new buzzword? Or a path of digital transformation on which many have unknowingly already embarked?

During this session, we will explore the definition of "Multi-Cloud", the maturity level of various providers - including your private cloud(s), and the competencies required to manage mission-critical applications in these cloud(s). We will review multiple migration and consumption models as well as business outcomes. The move to Multi-Cloud deployment is a strategy generally explored for greater efficiency, greater flexibility, and reduced complexity. However, these deployments often include increased compliance and security requirements, potentially additional cost, and certainly a new skill set which may not exist within your organization. We will explore these topics and more in our discussion on migrating a data center to a Multi-Cloud environment.
