Fast-moving cyber-attacks can strike at any time, and security teams are often unable to react quickly enough. Join Brianna Leddy, Director of Analysis, to learn how Autonomous Response takes targeted action to stop in-progress attacks, without disrupting your business. Explore today’s threats and challenges and learn how advances in AI have been leveraged to allow for very surgical actions to be taken autonomously – where humans can no longer react fast enough. Includes real-world threat finds, case studies and attack scenarios.

This presentation will discuss the difficulties of becoming and staying compliant with Payment Card Industry (PCI) requirements. Although currently in version 3.2.1, the updated Data Security Standard (DSS) 4.0 is coming soon and there are numerous changes and enhancements that must be complied with. Whether you are just beginning with PCI for your organization or have many years of experience, there are many challenges, both old and new that can create roadblocks to compliance. With emerging technologies such as zero-trust architecture ready for implementation, find out how to best use these controls for your organizational goals. This presentation will cover the requirements, trouble areas to be aware of, and how you can utilize specific technology in your compliance effort.

Backup is often the last line of defense against ransomware attacks, which have exponentially increased over the last year. Hear how Sky Lakes Medical Center chose a joint solution from strategic partners Cisco and Cohesity for a modern, efficient data management system to replace an aging backup solution while beating an unexpected ransomware attack. During this session, we’ll give you a brief overview of Cohesity for context and then roll into a 40-minute interview with the Sky Lakes Medical Center Team.

First, GDPR came into law in the European Union. Then in January of 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act took effect. Privacy laws are now a reality for all IT professionals to deal with. Are you sharing any data with third parties? How is your data stored? Have you verified all the needed compliance regulations for data in the cloud? These are just some of the many questions IT professionals need to be ready for when it comes to the current state of data privacy.

Join the INTERFACE Portland Advisory Council for a discussion on these topics and more. We will discuss setting up the right program for your operation. There will also be tips shared from handling the newest privacy laws and how these items differ from traditional cyber security preparations. Our panel of local IT leaders will offer their experiences from the last couple of years with the rapid growth in data privacy laws and how it affects the IT industry.

  Presented by Palo Alto Networks

Fueled by digital transformation and a massive shift to work-from-home, traditional enterprise networking and security infrastructures have been stretched to the breaking point. Legacy on-premises point-product approaches of yesteryear simply don’t make sense anymore. It’s time for a new model with the Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE (pronounced “sassy”).

SASE is quickly becoming the predominant network and security architecture that underpins our post-COVID world. SASE is the convergence of network services like SD-WAN, and security services like FWaaS, SWG, CASB, and ZTNA, into a single, cloud-delivered service model.

Join this presentation to learn:

• Why networking and security must converge in the cloud
• The key use cases driving SASE adoption
• Real-world case studies of customers who have adopted SASE

Data Loss Prevention is a misnamed and misapplied technology – not all data is in scope, you will never cover every loss scenario, and while protecting data sounds like a great idea in theory, in practice data protection isn’t always the optimal goal. Many organizations are required to deploy DLP technology to comply with a regulatory compliance requirement or to protect specific intellectual property. Most DLP projects end up in a much different state than their original design and intent.

This session will cover a brief history of DLP, how you should go about taking a people-centric approach to designing your information protection program, and using metrics for success that matter, as well as how to communicate your program to a non-technical audience.
