PCI and Your Organizational Liability

  Presented by Structured Communication Systems

Payment card processing is a critical service many companies and organizations offer. But with this service comes the added responsibility to comply with PCI requirements, and the technical, administrative, and physical controls applicable to card processing environments. Failure to comply can result in costly fines. Plus, a breach of card holder information could have disastrous financial and public relations consequences for compromised merchants. Want to know more? With compelling and engaging content delivered by Rob Wayt, a PCI Qualified Security Assessor (QSA), you will learn the intricacies of these requirements, proper scoping, and how to mitigate risks that merchants have while card processing.

Mitigate Cyber Risks: Visibility & Response

  Presented by RSA, the Security Division of Dell EMC

Cyber-attack risks are more prominent and widespread in today’s digital environment. Organizations struggle to respond to the evolving threat landscape—a challenge compounded by visibility and process gaps created by functional silos. This results in uncoordinated responses to cyber incidents that magnify financial, operational, reputational and compliance risks for businesses. This session will cover recommended steps to gain visibility and mitigate ongoing risk.

Adapting to Fight Back: How Cyber AI Neutralizes Never-Before-Seen Threats

  Presented by Darktrace

In a world that is increasingly digital, cyber-attack has become the most significant risk confronting today’s businesses, smart cities, and critical infrastructure. Online crime cost the world more than half a trillion dollars last year, while recent attacks have managed to influence the U.S. presidential election and disrupt the Ukrainian power supply. This troubling state of affairs is the product of several fundamental weaknesses with the traditional approach to cyber defense, which relies on predefining what threats look like at a time when criminals launch never-before-seen attacks daily. Moreover, these attacks increasingly strike at machine-speed, preventing security professionals from responding before their damage is done.

Building the SNOC: How to Integrate SecOps and NetOps

  Presented by ExtraHop

As the IT environment becomes more complex and distributed, it is more important than ever that Security Operations and Network Operations teams work together. This presentation explains the opportunities for optimizing budgets, cross-training staff, accelerating threat response, and improving end-user experience that come with integrated security and network operations. Attendees will also learn practical steps they can take toward building an integrated Security and Network Operations Center (SNOC).

Cloud Security: Top Use Cases for Modern Cloud Protection

  Presented by Xiologix

With enterprises embracing multiple cloud environments, the attack surface is growing immensely—but security visibility and coordination are shrinking. In this presentation, we will discuss why and how to bring the cloud conversation into hardware purchase conversations and who is responsible for securing the different types of cloud resources. We will also walk through the six most common use cases for cloud protection.

The Monsters We Build: Apps from Pieces and Parts

  Presented by F5 Networks

The way we build applications today differs greatly from how they were built just a few years ago. The rise of architectural approaches to development like microservices, function-as-a-service, and injectable components have simplified some aspects of application development but has made our applications into lumbering Frankenstein’s monsters in other ways. Learn how to properly map out your monster’s anatomy and identify hidden, critical weaknesses in delivery, security, and operability…before they come after you with torches.
