The amount of data created is staggering. Many turn to AI and machine learning to manage and utilize the data they have, but what if it does more harm than it is helpful? Join us as we discuss:

As the threat landscape rapidly expands, enterprises across all industries are seeking approaches and technologies to safeguard their interest from advanced and persistent threats. Mounting regulatory and financial penalties against a talent shortage, the need for better cybersecurity only becomes more apparent.
Startups are emerging to offer solutions that address vulnerabilities arising from the growing threat vectors introduced by the expansion of the enterprise domain. Understanding trends and technologies that are driving the future of cybersecurity is critical to both individual contributors and leaders.

You rely on the network to deliver applications. But as IT scales in size, connectivity, and environments outside the network to public cloud, we cannot rely solely on the network to secure applications. The answer is to decouple security segmentation from the network. This allows us to protect applications wherever they run – because they do not live exclusively on our networks anymore, and enforcement must go wherever they do.
During this informative session, we’ll discuss:

Adoption of cloud services has driven enterprises to re-think WAN architecture. Architectures based on traditional, manually-programmed routers can’t keep pace. A business-driven SD-WAN can provide secure direct connections from the branch to SaaS/IaaS across the internet, significantly increasing application performance resulting in a superior end-user QoEx (Quality of Experience). By integrating SD-WAN, WAN optimization, routing and security in a single unified platform, enterprises can simplify branch WAN edge architecture, accelerating time to value and dramatically reducing operational costs. From a centralized SD-WAN orchestrator, application priorities and QoS and security policies may be configured and assigned to automate traffic handling across the WAN. A single mouse click distributes SD-WAN configuration parameters to all sites, improving operational efficiency and minimizing the potential for human errors that can negatively impact application availability and enterprise security. This session will describe why SD-WAN adoption continues at a breakneck pace because of the user productivity, agility and cost savings benefits that a business-driven SD-WAN delivers.

Businesses with large office or task-based workforces are increasingly moving to application and desktop virtualization. This is because virtualization technologies, both applications and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), offer IT organizations and their end users an array of choices in accessing applications and desktops. And, as organizations adopt digital workspaces, they naturally expect a higher-quality user experience. Unfortunately, virtualization brings both new and unique security challenges with it.
This presentation will cover the top challenges that enterprises face and will cover suggestions to identify a security solution that complements your virtualization initiatives and makes both the Infosec team and users happy.
Presented by Trend Micro
This presentation will talk about research on radio remote controllers used in industrial settings, and how they can be used for attacks in this environment. This will shed light on how a cyberattack can inflict physical damage or harm. The goal is to inspire the audience to think outside the box in terms of what can be compromised and impose a sense of urgency in the IoT/IIoT security space.
Presented by Zerto
In today’s always-on, information-driven organizations, business continuity depends completely on IT infrastructures that are up and running 24/7. Being prepared for any data related disaster is key!
In this presentation we will address the challenges, needs, strategies, and solutions.
Presented by Unitrends
We are living in a “Less is More” world. In a landscape that’s rapidly changing, IT professionals are managing more work, projects, and risk than ever before. While external threats such as malware and natural disasters cause significant downtime and data loss without proper BCDR implementation, organizations must also be prepared to safeguard from within. Data continues to grow at an exponential rate, and not only on-premises. As cloud-delivered solutions such as IaaS and SaaS are rapidly adopted by an increasing number of organizations, and the workforce itself is becoming increasingly dispersed and mobile, organizations must consider data protection strategies to address gaps in BC/DR outside the traditional data center. Join Adam Marget, Technical Specialist from Unitrends, as we explore the evolving landscape of data protection, clouds growing role, BC/DR strategies to safeguard local, remote, and cloud-based workloads, and best practices in planning your DR approach.
Presented by Malwarebytes
Malware has become one of the biggest threat challenges faced by security and IT teams. Malwarebytes Labs conducts extensive proprietary research and analysis. The findings are periodically published to help security teams better understand the nature and evolution of these threats.
This presentation will cover key findings from our newly released annual report. It will highlight malware category trends and discuss new and emerging threats to be on the watch for. There will also be a discussion of industry best practices and technologies that can help your business to prevent, detect, and remediate these threats.
Attendees will leave with insight into the current malware threat landscape, as well as an understanding of steps they can take to mitigate breaches.
