Presented by Herb Williams, Field Technical Director • Cohesity
Join this session for a walk-through of a real-world ransomware attack and the necessary steps to recover. We will cover a cyber insurance form to show how it aligns with our “Protect, Detect, Recover” point of view, and we will speak to the specific capabilities associated with each point.

Legacy backups are vulnerable to attacks, can’t help you find threats, and force you to do wholesale restores that drag out recovery times. Rubrik Zero Labs found that only 5% of organizations were able to return to business continuity or normal operations within one hour of discovering a CyberAttack. A modern cyber recovery solution is critical for Security and IT teams to be cyber-resilient. Learn how you can make your data indestructible.

If an attack happens and makes it all the way to your data, then they have already broken through all your walls. Where your data lives IS your last line of defense, which is why the Armed Forces that protect the USA trust Hitachi to protect them. Prevention is great but without that last line of defense, you’re a sitting duck. Attend this session to learn how Hitachi serves as your last line of defense against ransomware attacks.

What’s all the hype about AI? Heard of OpenAI and ChatGPT? What does this mean for cybersecurity? How is, and will, AI be used to help us manage the enormous threat landscape? How will threat agents use AI to thwart our defenses? Join this dynamic session to learn more about AI, what it is, how it’s being used, and why the current conversation is so divided regarding this emerging technology – both good and bad.

IAM didn’t rank in the NASCIO priority list before 2019 but has now moved up to #5 and will continue to climb. Yet, many State and Local Government entities find it difficult to articulate a comprehensive IAM strategy and governance framework. To address challenges posed by legacy applications, technical debt, and organizational inertia, a vision of Identity as a Platform can allow for rapid adoption, improved user experience, reduced administrative burden, and contribute to your Zero Trust initiatives.

Many organizations discover a cybersecurity breach many months later, too late for any substantial mitigation. With the average cost of breaches in the US at $9.4M, (without including ransom paid), it is advisable for organizations to take a more offensive stance. What if there was a way to detect compromised corporate credentials well before they were used to cause widespread fraud? Dark Web Monitoring goes where cybercriminals traffic stolen emails, usernames, and passwords, and can alert an organization if personal or corporate user information shows up in the Darknet layers. Learn how using a tool like this can help protect an organization’s employees, consumers, and vendors, as well as its reputation.

The inversion effect of cloud applications, users, and data outside of the corporate network, along with the new hybrid workforce, demands a new approach to IT security and network architecture. Cloud application traffic has overtaken web traffic in the enterprise, creating blind spots and complexity with existing legacy security and network solutions that were designed for access to data centers through on-premises security stacks. These challenges demand a new approach to cloud security that delivers the simplicity and agility for access, security, and performance that businesses need for their successful digital transformation journeys while securing their critical data assets and embracing zero-trust principles. They also demand an intelligent solution approach based on a converged, cloud-native architecture.

Modern attack surfaces are dynamic. Without clear visibility that is constantly updated, it is all too easy to have persistent exposures and unmanaged assets. Security practitioners can only be as good as the data they have, so having a strong foundation of continuous discovery and monitoring ensures you can keep up with modern, dynamic attack surfaces in order to find, prioritize, and mitigate exposures as they arise.

When faced with unrelenting cyberattacks, many organizations turn to their insurance company to cover their losses. However, not all organizations are adequately protected.
Presented by Grant Asplund, Growth Technologies Evangelist • Check Point Software
A journey through cyber – from stand-alone Apple II computers using PFS or Ashton-Tate software to today’s ubiquitous, always-on, hyper-connected, cloud-first computing. This session is a fun compilation of short stories and excerpts spanning four decades in the cyber industry. Grant will discuss the transition from single systems to networking to the internet… and how cyber security has evolved from securing virtually nothing to virtually everything. Grant will also share his thoughts on the constantly evolving threat landscape including IoT, Cloud, and the still-reigning champion, Email. Finally, Grant will offer considerations for improving your overall security posture today as well as future trends… you’ll even have a chance to win some cash.
