In the immediate aftermath of a ransomware attack, executives too often face a difficult dilemma: either pay a ransom or shut down critical systems and services. In today’s increasingly complex digital ecosystems, the collateral damage that ensues from ransomware attacks can be broad-ranging and destructive, with organizations taking days, weeks, or even months to recover.

But what if there was another way out – a way to surgically contain ransomware in its earliest stages, without disrupting normal business operations? Join this presentation to learn how Cyber AI is helping thousands of organizations fight back against ransomware. We’ll discuss:

• The impact of ‘double-extortion’ ransomware and ‘ransomware-as-a-service’
• Real-world examples of ransomware detected by Cyber AI
• How self-learning AI responds proportionately to ransomware, thanks to its deep understanding of an organization’s pattern of life

Organizations spend more money on cyber security tools every year, yet the number of breaches and the cost of these breaches continues to increase. A new approach is needed that relies on autonomous analysis that can respond at machine speed. By embracing automation, AI, and big data analytics, organizations can better prevent threats, find, and detect what is missed, provide contextual linking for forensic and threat hunting ¬– and even more importantly – self-heal and fully recover when necessary.

Everything You Need to Know About CMMC:

In 2007, Chinese hackers successfully targeted a Department of Defense (DoD) subcontractor leading to the creation of a powerful fighter jet. During this cyberattack, the Chinese stole enough data to make their J-20 stealth fighter jet a real threat to the USA. The reality of this attack is that it wasn’t just a one-off event—over $600 billion is lost globally due to cyber theft every year. With that in mind, the DoD knew something needed to change.

Changes to cybersecurity compliance are coming. Before the introduction of the cybersecurity maturity model certification (CMMC), any self-attesting defense contractors could say that they were compliant with specific cybersecurity guidelines—without having to prove it. This not only left room for contractors to become complacent but diminished all compliant defense contractors’ credibility. In short, contractors who were reckless with sensitive information weren’t held accountable—until now.

With the rollout of the CMMC, contracting with the DoD is more specialized than ever—especially if you’re dealing with controlled unclassified information (CUI). But these new guidelines also mean the space will become more lucrative. It’s estimated that 129,810 businesses will likely pursue CMMC certification in the first 5 years.

CMMC boils down to 3 major points:

1. It’s mandatory. All CMMC requirements will explicitly address what level your company needs to be at to send or receive any future federal agency RFIs and RFPs.
2. It’s verifiable. Proof of certification will be accessible electronically.
3. It’s a long-term investment. Many organizations see between 12-18 months of continual effort to complete their compliance projects fully.

Presented by Rob Thurston, Chief Technology Officer at Ampersand, Alaska’s leading technology services provider, attendees will learn about compliance requirements, sustainability, and risks for DoD contractors.

CISOs say that what they need most in their security program is the confidence that people, processes, and technology are working and effective, and that controls are in place to ensure resiliency in the case of a major event. “Risk” is the vocabulary of the business, yet measuring and discussing this all-important concept in an actionable way remains a unique challenge. In this session, we will discuss:

• Actionable risk metrics, both for use inside the security function and with outside stakeholders
• How the language and awareness of information security risk has evolved
• How the right metrics will benefit the business and win investment for security

Mobile workforces were already an increasing trend in business even before we all had to deal with sending our teams home during the pandemic. As many of us work through our return to office plans with hope in our hearts, it is clear that the remote work trend has intensified and will likely continue to do so in the future.

Remote work has challenged traditional security approaches and forced us to think harder about how we can best support the changing nature of work. Thankfully, many of the technology, process, and people changes needed to support remote workers have significant benefits in our overall security posture.

For this session, we’ll talk about trends our security operations center saw in remote work environments and their impact on security operations, discuss theories around how to plan and support these workers, and talk about technology approaches that may help your organization support these workers better while improving your overall security posture.

A few months ago, the U.S. White House released cybersecurity executive order 14028, an attempt by the United States government to use its purchasing power to create positive changes to the way cybersecurity is addressed around the world.

Recent high-profile breaches like the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack or the SolarWinds software supply chain attack have shown that our cybersecurity defenses are woefully inadequate. This executive order forces a higher standard of cybersecurity for any organization selling software to the federal government, which in turn makes it the de facto global standard for all software in the future.

Tidelift CEO and co-founder Donald Fischer shares his perspective on how the cybersecurity executive order impacts software supply chain security. He’ll brief attendees on the key issues addressed by the executive order, including software bill of materials (SBOM), supply chain security, and provenance requirements. He’ll outline the gaps that most organizations will need to close to stay in compliance. And he’ll share a proactive approach to addressing open-source software supply chain health and security upstream.

If you want to ensure your organization is fully prepared for the coming changes, you won’t want to miss this session.

Security and compliance teams both strive to design, establish, and enforce controls to protect an organization. But even with shared goals in place, security and compliance teams often manage business risk in relative isolation. So how can these teams set aside tension and work better together to create a winning alliance?

In this session, we explore the key differences between security and compliance initiatives. It’s crucial to understand that being fully compliant doesn’t necessarily mean an organization is fundamentally secure. We’ll cover how the two initiatives complement each other when it comes to minimizing risk and how both teams can collaborate to create efficiencies. Attendees will learn how to leverage compliance policies to set the foundation to a robust information security program, while providing true visibility and coverage, consolidating toolsets, and reducing costs. Lastly, we’ll discuss how to ensure that a successful security program can help organizations prepare for an upcoming audit to ultimately achieve and maintain continuous compliance.

Attackers are continuing to successfully set off cyber disasters across the globe. Organizations that focus solely on detection and response find that they can’t detect or respond fast enough. Cyberattacks and ransomware break through perimeters and then leverage common ports to stay undetected until they have spread throughout an organization.

There are new advancements that allow organizations to protect their key assets from cyberattacks and ransomware in minutes - across multi cloud, containers, hybrid and on-premises environments.

We'll discuss how these innovations can help you:

• Immediately enforce security policy across your organization to protect high-value assets.
• Dramatically reduce the risk of supply-chain attacks like the recent Kaseya ransomware.
• Scale as needed to enforce more than 100,000 workloads in cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.
• Get real-time visibility and insights to create, enforce, and test security policy.
• Monitor workloads in and out of applications hosted in public clouds to simplify and secure cloud migrations and automate multi-cloud security.
