[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

[1 CPE] Navigating Today’s Threat Landscape: A Current State of Cybersecurity

  Presented by Fortinet

Join this session for a comprehensive look at the current state of cybersecurity. Today’s ever-evolving threat landscape requires an integrated, automated approach to security.

[1 CPE] 2022 Threat Review

  Presented by Malwarebytes

The Malwarebytes 2022 Threat Review is an annual report on the latest threats, attack trends, and privacy breaches impacting individuals, organizations, and national security. Researchers detail threat intelligence across operating systems and examine how privacy has shifted and the ways that cybercriminals and crimes are evolving. With a stronger understanding of the threat landscape, organizations and individuals can make more informed security and cyber-protection decisions.

[1 CPE] What is “Universal Zero Trust Network Access” for IT and OT Environment?

  Presented by Airgap

Hybrid workforce is forcing IT to manage two sets of access products for remote work and for in-office work. This inefficiency leads to higher costs, operational complexity of managing duplicate policies, and different experience for on-prem and remote workers. Why must IT organizations deal with VLANs, ACLs, port, 802.1x, NACs and their configurations for when your employees are on-premises versus when the employees are working from remote locations?

In this session, you’ll learn the key principles of Universal Zero Trust Network Access and how a unified stack across hybrid workforce can reduce operational complexities, improve user experience, and reduce downtime for IT and OT organizations.

[1 CPE] Stopping Attacks, Not Your Business: AI & Autonomous Response

  Presented by Darktrace

With cyber-attackers continuously searching for new ways to outpace security teams, it can lead to a struggle to fight back without disrupting business operations. Join this session to explore the benefits of Autonomous Response as a must-have that goes beyond ‘defense,’ including real-world threat finds and attack scenarios.

[1 CPE] Disrupting the Means to Prevent the End: A Guide to Detecting Ransomware

  Presented by Red Canary

Ransomware has been a dominant cybersecurity threat for the better part of the last decade. However, it doesn’t walk alone. It’s almost always the eventual payload delivered by earlier-stage malicious software or activity. Luckily, if you can detect the threats that deliver the ransomware, you can stop the ransomware before it arrives.

In this talk, we’ll extensively reference Red Canary’s 2022 Threat Detection Report, examining the malware and other malicious tools that adversaries often use to deliver ransomware. While the specific trojans and strains of ransomware may change from one attack to the next, adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures are often similar across campaigns and threats. By developing robust detection coverage for the techniques adversaries abuse most often, rather than focusing on individual threats, security teams can achieve defense-in-depth against the many threats that leverage those techniques and the broader trends that dominate the infosec landscape.

Want to learn more about the prevalent adversary techniques and threats that can lead to a ransomware infection? Attendees will leave with:

  • A better understanding of the threats and tools that commonly precede a ransomware infection
  • Guidance on relevant collection and data sources that offer visibility into the threats and techniques that adversaries use to deliver ransomware
  • Actionable information on how security teams can develop the capacity to detect, prevent, and mitigate ransomware and other threats
  • Strategies for testing their ability to observe and detect common threats with free and easy-to-use tools like Atomic Red Team

[1 CPE] Asset Visibility is Foundational to Effective Attack Surface Management

  Presented by Armis

Organizational assets are everywhere, across any network, and with diversified asset types like IT, IoT, OT & IoMT. Today’s organizations struggle to manage this extended attack surface, leaving unseen gaps in risk posture. So why is it that in 2022 organizations still fail to instantly and accurately answer basic questions of what they have, never mind understanding risks and threats across the heavily expanded footprint? Is it the manual effort to find and understand the asset landscape or that existing tools are only focused on a particular asset types like IT? Join Armis for this informative session where we’ll explore what the expanded attack looks like and how to address the increased threat that most organizations face.

[1 CPE] Digital Transformation is Built on a Foundation of APIs – But are Your APIs Secure?

  Presented by 42Crunch

APIs are the core building block of every enterprise’s digital strategy, yet they are also the number one attack surface for hackers. Traditional security and management approaches are failing every day as the scale and reach of API attacks increase. The time is now right for enterprises to consider a new end-to-end continuous approach to protecting their APIs. In this talk, you will learn how Global 2500 enterprises are embracing a positive security model combining shift-left and shield-right methodologies to protect their APIs throughout the API lifecycle.

[1 CPE] The Future of Observability

  Presented by Cribl

Digital transformations, cloud migrations, and persistent security threats turned observability from a niche concern to an essential capability in today’s organizations. We’re still in the early days of observability maturity, but early stumbles point to where observability must go in the future. This talk discusses where observability is today and the three critical areas necessary for observability to deliver on its promises throughout the enterprise.
