Machine learning is a big step forward in combatting cyberattacks but is still no silver bullet. Many traditional cybersecurity solutions available today are causing huge operational challenges as they are not adequately fighting against today’s complex and sophisticated threats. Detection and response-based solutions are no longer sufficient as damage can already be done while waiting for the execution of an attack. Executives and security leaders need to start adopting a preventative approach to cybersecurity, which is made possible through Deep Learning.

Fortunately, AI technologies are advancing, and deep learning is proven to be the most effective cybersecurity solution, resulting in unmatched prevention rates with proven lowest false positive rates. As you evaluate new technologies for your organization, understand the differences and benefits of AI/ML/DL.

For forward-looking organizations, SIEM technology promised to identify security blind spots, reduce noise and alert fatigue, and simplify the detection and response to complex attacks. How well has it lived up to the promise? What gaps have emerged as the pandemic accelerated our digital transformation and adoption of cloud services? In this session, we’ll explore these issues and identify new ways to think about cybersecurity, threat detection, telemetry, and the converging technology needed to meet the challenges of the current threat landscape.

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.

As companies double down on time to innovation, time to market, time to revenue, they are inherently introducing more risk from the inside. The more cloud-based, collaborative, and fast an organization becomes, the greater the Insider Risks posed to its people, technology, and data. The upside is that cloud collaboration tools make employees more productive. The downside is that these same tools make it easier to exfiltrate data. Add the complexities of working from home and off the corporate network; more employees are routinely using unauthorized devices, tools, and cloud-based applications to share files and ideas with colleagues.

Join us to discuss the growing insider risk problem and how the right data protection methods can set security teams up for success, without slowing down company productivity.

Assessing the resilience of your network can dramatically improve your ability to fend off prospective breaches. New applications and services introduce new avenues of attack. Without knowing the potential weaknesses within your network, you cannot successfully defend it.

Join us to hear about:

• how assessments give you the visibility you need to make more informed, data-driven decisions
• how you can prioritize strategic initiatives and obtain budgeting more easily by running assessments
• how certain verticals (education, healthcare, et al.) can benefit from understanding their specific threat landscapes and common industry-wide threats.

During this session we will also cover:

• a firsthand demonstration on how data is collected and processed, and logs are analyzed from your network during an assessment
• contents of a sample findings report and how recommendations can help prioritize your security strategy

Assessment offering:
Schedule an assessment, and you will receive a complimentary Fortinet branded Basecamp Rapids Wireless Speaker. Once the assessment has been completed, will receive a pair of FortiVans (limit 50). Note that SLED customers may not be eligible for giveaway items.

As SOCs have matured, they have employed a number of solutions to combat cybersecurity threats. Traditionally, SOCs have relied on SIEM and EDR tools for their detection and investigation needs. While these tools are critical to security operations, they have their visibility limitations. As such, modern security teams have turned to the network for added detection visibility. Network Detection and Response (NDR) solutions provide the necessary visibility not available in SIEM or EDR solutions and help SOCs complete their security architecture.

In this session, we discuss traditional security architectures and how they are being optimized using NDR into a modern security architecture.
