Vendor Management and Data Privacy

  Presented by AT&T

Among rapidly evolving technological advancements, the emergence of AI-enhanced malware is making cyber-attacks exponentially more dangerous and harder to identify. In the near future, we will begin to see supercharged, AI-powered cyber-attacks leveraged at scale. To protect against Offensive AI attacks, organizations are turning to defensive cyber AI, which can identify and neutralize emerging malicious activity, no matter when, or where, it strikes.

In this session, learn about:

  • Paradigm shifts in the cyber landscape
  • Advancements in offensive AI attack techniques
  • The Immune System Approach to cyber security and defensive, Autonomous Response capabilities
  • Real-world examples of emerging threats that were stopped with Cyber AI

Why Protecting Crypto Keys is More Important Than the Data They are Protecting

  Presented by nCipher

In Part 1 Mr. Beutlich talked about the history of cryptography. As Brad discussed, throughout history, the weakest link of every encryption solution (no matter how simple or complex) was exchanging and protecting the cryptographic key. In Part 2 of this series, Brad will discuss in detail why, in the 21st century, the creation and protection of a crypto key is even more important than it’s ever been. Join Brad for another lively presentation on how important it is to protect crypto keys.

Master the Edge: How to Achieve Context-Aware, Zero Trust Network Access

  Presented by Structured & Aruba

Have you been tasked with implementing Zero Trust Network Access but are unsure of how to go about it? Are you confused about how to achieve “minimum access”? Are you struggling with employing “continuous adaptive risk & trust assessment” on your network? If so, attend this session. Learn how to deploy an open, multi-vendor Enterprise security framework that gives security and IT teams an integrated way to gain visibility, control, and advanced threat defense. See how security prioritization and machine learning helps organizations leverage existing third-party solutions to better protect investments and implement proactive risk controls.

What You Don’t Understand About Crypto Can Hurt You

  Presented by nCipher

For over 2000 years, governments, armies, businesses and lovers have been encrypting messages. For the same amount of time, the keys used to perform the encryption have been the weakest link in the chain. After 2000 years, technology has advanced such that the keys can be protected but many companies don’t understand how important it really is. Mr. Beutlich will explain in an entertaining (and sometimes graphic) fashion why protecting the encryption key is more important than the encryption itself.

An Appeal for Cybersecurity Consolidation

  Presented by Fortinet

Come participate in a discussion about the Cybersecurity counterculture of platform consolidation. Learn of the potential benefits like reduction of complexity, and greater visibility and control.
