[1 CPE] Open-Source Developers Are Security’s New Front Line

  • Analyze and detail the events leading to today’s “all-out” attack on the OSS industry
  • Define what the future of open source looks like in today’s new normal
  • Outline how developers can step into the role of security to protect themselves and the millions of people depending on them

[1 CPE] Top 10 Myths and Misconceptions About Ransomware

  Presented by Bitdefender

2021 was “the year of ransomware.” But so were 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 – and so far, 2022 is not very different. Ransomware is no longer a problem discussed only in the cybersecurity and tech communities – it is now a regular topic in mainstream media headlines and executive board meetings.

So why is ransomware such a menace, and why can we not seem to get rid of it? One of the reasons is that we seem to miss the continued evolution of ransomware. We keep preparing for the last war. Ransomware in 2022 is very different than ransomware in 2017, yet we still treat it the same way.

Roy Correa, Enterprise Field Engineer will help you to learn more about:

  • Ransomware evolution and what we need to un-learn to effectively combat it
  • The most common myths, misunderstandings, and misconceptions about ransomware and the threat actors behind it
  • The most effective tips to become more cyber resilient and prevent security incidents from turning into catastrophic breaches
