Collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams, Google Docs and Slack are now an integral part of everyday working life where online communications with team members, vendors, partners and customers are par for the course. However, in today’s hyperconnected world, collaboration tool communications were not designed with security in mind. And phishers have taken notice where they can now attack one of the companies in your supply chain with the ultimate intent of getting past your own company’s protections. Join us for an insightful discussion as we delve into the range of security gaps and most active cyber threats that are associated with collaboration tools ---ranging from cryptomining malware, phishing, trojans, and ransomware. We will deep dive on how these simple endpoint attacks are evolving into complex, multi-stage operations giving an easy foothold into company networks. We will also explore how security teams can thwart massive data leaks and expensive ransomware payouts as well as take a look at the vast, new, complicated threat landscape and how we’re seeing phishing used in cyberwarfare.

For years, communicating effectively with the C-suite and board of directors has been an ongoing exercise for security leaders and their teams. While we haven’t reached nirvana, tremendous strides have been made. However, there are still significant communication challenges that present themselves when it comes to certain topics, such as the single biggest unknown cybersecurity threat; Highly Evasive Adaptive Threats (HEAT). While ransomware tends to make headlines and capture your C-suite’s attention, it’s HEAT attacks that make those possible. Join us for an insightful discussion where we explore what HEAT attacks are and how they drastically increase business risk, but most important, what can be done about them. We will also explore how to maximize security investments in the face of economic downturns and how to augment existing security stacks to prevent HEAT attacks.

Modern enterprises are accelerating their digital transformation initiatives to gain agility and maintain a competitive edge. No matter how many times you’ve heard it, the cliché “you can’t secure what you can’t” see still remains true. As organizations move to increasingly complex hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructures, the need to gain and maintain visibility into all data-in-motion – including East-West, encrypted and container traffic – becomes more critical. Join us for an engaging discussion on how the deep observability enables organizations to realize the full transformational promise of the cloud and set the stage for delivering significant value. With the uncertainty of today’s economy, we will also explore how to minimize the expenses that are associated with managing hybrid and multi-cloud IT infrastructures by identifying and eliminating security and performance blind spots, breaking down silos, and containing runaway complexity.

Today’s attack surface is continuously expanding due to hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructures and more cloud-based applications. Security operations are having difficulties in scaling and managing the volume of data and variety of security tools due to resource constraints and escalating costs. This leads to limited visibility, manual detection, and slow investigation efforts leading to delayed response to complex targeted attacks. Join us for an insightful dinner discussion on how security leaders can adopt an analytics-driven approach that goes beyond current SIEM, XDR and other SOC solutions to reduce alert fatigue, manual efforts, and inadequate response. We will explore the best practices associated with how to improve threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) for security teams.

Multi-cloud networks, new AI applications, and unstructured data systems are often added without the security team’s knowledge, expanding the attack surface without adherence to security policies. While cybersecurity tools have matured and are more capable of detecting threats and vulnerabilities, improving data protection with data discovery and classification is an ever more important priority. Complicating the situation further, regulations such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and U.S. state laws such as the CCPA mandate the protection of sensitive and personal information. At the end of the day, you can’t protect what you don’t know you have. It is time to capture the elusive risk of sensitive dark data.

You’re invited to an engaging evening of networking, best practice sharing, and wine tasting with your executive peers to discuss how to optimize your efforts for security, privacy, and compliance. And no matter how strong your data privacy and security efforts are, planning for and having knowledge of accurate data discovery is essential to protecting your enterprise.

In today’s digital world, applications have become mission-critical for organizations looking to drive rapid growth and to stay connected with customers. As technology evolves, the attack surface becomes more sophisticated offering threat actors a range of vectors to target and compromise. Combined with stagnating budgets, fluctuating economic trends and limited team sizes, these challenges cause security leaders to feel the pressure to consider the increased threat landscape to include sensitive data that's exposed through APIs.

Join this insightful discussion to participate in a conversation about how security leaders can enable and empower their teams to safeguard sensitive data using modern security platforms that protect your applications, continuously scan for APIs that expose sensitive data and shield them, and provide automation tools that let you achieve increasingly complex tasks without growing your team. We will also explore how a comprehensive Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) stack that secures from edge to database is essential to reducing the risks created by third-party code.

Join us for an engaging discussion on how to best defend against the broadening attack surface where security teams can garner an improved level of visibility across workloads, devices, users and networks to detect, protect, and respond to cyber threats. We will also explore how security teams can make more informed decisions to detect and stop lateral movement of attacks that are stymied due to the limited context of their systems.

Just like any business or industry, cybercriminals are continually on the lookout for ways to innovate and remain relevant as trends and market dynamics evolve. The shift to remote and hybrid work and acceleration of cloud adoption has transformed the daily routines for most workers, with most of it revolving around the browser. It only makes sense from an attacker’s perspective to cast a line where the majority of fish are swimming because they can evade detection from traditional security tools. It then comes as no surprise that Highly Evasive Adaptive Threats (HEAT) represent an important evolution in attacker techniques to exploit key gaps in traditional security defenses. Join us for a forward-thinking discussion on how organizations can focus on three key tenets to limit their susceptibility to these types of attacks: shifting from a detection to a proactive mindset, stopping threats before they hit the endpoint, and incorporating advanced anti-phishing and isolation capabilities. We will also explore how HEAT attacks evade existing security defenses where hackers exploit the weaknesses of the existing security stack, are building sophisticated delivery mechanisms to evade detection as well as how to prevent them.
