APIs are ubiquitous in today's application infrastructure. Driven by rapid mobile device adoption, the move towards container-based applications, serverless computing, service mesh architecture and cloud adoption, API usage has seen exponential growth. Often publicly exposed and well documented to accelerate and simplify adoption, APIs have become the next frontier in application fraud. The same benefits that APIs bring to the development community are now leveraged by bad actors to commit application fraud and other types of cyber-crime. As a result, API security is top of mind for CIOs, CISOs and security practitioners alike. Researching the wide range of API security alternatives is confusing. This session will delve into the different approaches to protecting APIs from a range of security risks and how security and development teams should approach a consistent protection philosophy.

Fifty-four percent of survey respondents say their institutions' digital authentication measures are average or below when compared to their peers. And 55 percent rate themselves at average or below when it comes to their institution's current ability to apply the right amount of security to the right transactions at the right time. These are among the key results of The State of Adaptive Authentication in Banking survey.

In this session, learn more about the survey results and receive live, expert analysis about:

• How to benchmark where your organization is on the road of adaptive authentication;
• Business benefits to be gained;
• Tools, skills and partnerships to get you there.

Security professionals are facing today a reality where the balance between attackers and defenders in the Cyber arena has broken. Attackers have attained a significant advantage, unmatched to the means and security controls that the cyber defenders have developed.

Discussion topics will include:

• How to stay ahead of the attackers?
• Are we watching all angles / aspects?
• What are the transitions we should be paying attention to?
• How do we Identify the collisions between Trust management and Risk management?
• How to define the risks of Zero Trust architecture?
• How could "watching in all directions" weaken our security? And what can we do about it?
• Situational analysis perspectives - could that improve our Cyber resilience?

Six misconceptions about PAM in hybrid environments Privileged access solutions often bring the image of massive IT projects, armies of consultants invading your corridors and deployments that take months on end. We want to change this perception and demonstrate you that a best-of-breed PAM solution is a viable option for cloud-driven teams, small and medium-sized enterprises and bigger players alike when they all adopt multi-cloud services.

Join this session to learn:

• What type of PAM solution is the best option for multi-cloud-driven teams
• How a PAM solution can be deployed within days instead of months for great ROI
• How to mitigate the risk of always-on permanent credentials with just-in-time access

As businesses become more dependent on the cloud for innovation and growth, what's holding them back? Applying traditional security thinking and practices can often lead to problematic or even failed cloud deployments. This session will cover how security teams need to adapt to enable efficient cloud deployments and enable their business to thrive. We'll also discuss how the Open Cybersecurity Alliance (OCA) is helping to break down data and solution silos and move the industry towards a true open, interconnected security platform.

This session will delve into:

• Major challenges with moving to cloud
• A new, structured approach to efficient cloud migration
• How the OCA is helping to address the "tools that don't talk to each other" issue

Cybersecurity tool sprawl has reached unsustainable levels, and research shows 66% of businesses are striving to consolidate their security portfolio. But over-consolidating to a few platform solutions risks creating a vulnerable, innovation-stifling monoculture. If every organization uses a nearly identical set of security tools, compromising one means compromising them all. Heterogeneity of cybersecurity systems is itself a defense, so security teams need to approach consolidation differently. In this session, attendees will learn:

• How a data-first approach to security architectures can illuminate natural consolidation points
• How collaboration with other parts of the IT organization can improve security posture and reduce tool sprawl.
• How this collaborative approach also creates an opportunity to leverage other parts of the organization to improve security posture through smarter processes and practices.
