Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from a leading industry practitioner on why it’s time to “go hack yourself” and build resilience in today’s borderless threat environment.

[1 CPE] From Chaos to Control: How Zero-Trust Networks Run Themselves

  Presented by Sukesh Garg, Vice President of Products • Nile

Many organizations still manage and secure their campus and branch networks based on a trust model designed for days past — a fragile web of switches, controllers, and security tools stitched together, never designed to secure IoT, sophisticated malware, and evolving AI threats.

The result is operational chaos, well-known vulnerabilities, and the constant feeling that something is missing. In this session, we’ll outline how leading enterprises are shifting to a Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) with completely re-designed architecture that’s built on top of modern Zero Trust Fabric — where Zero Trust security is delivered on day one. No complexity, add-ons, or legacy vulnerabilities.

With Nile, every user and device is isolated by design, micro-segmentation and granular policies provide enhanced identity-based enforcement — without the cost, complexity, and traditional risk.

Key Takeaways:

  • Traditional network security no longer meets today’s evolving security and compliance demands.
  • Zero-Trust compliance is within reach, without years of integration projects and missed timelines.
  • Reducing incidents and regaining operational control starts with a modern approach that aligns network and security requirements.

[1 CPE] Modernizing the SOC: Transforming your Security Operations

  Presented by JR Silverthorne, Partner Solutions Consultant, West • Palo Alto Networks

So many industry players want to speak to and about tool consolidation and a platformization play in the cybersecurity space. We want to examine the classical SOC model and turn it on its head and reveal how a suite of capabilities enable root cause analysis, risk context, correlation, and automation across an open platform that accepts the widest and largest variety of data sources from the endpoint to the data center to the cloud. Our approach –– Xtended Security Intelligence Automation Management.

If your interest is in achieving the lowest MTTR and MTTD, if you want to detect security incidents and remediate faster, then your path forward has to unify workflows, utilize embedded intelligence, and provide automated responses. Let us show you how Palo Alto with 20,000 employees operates their SOC with just 15 people.
