Security debt is a real problem for most organizations in the world today, and attackers will utilize this to their advantage. In addition to keeping system hygiene at front of mind, defenders need to focus on proper network zone segmentation or, the more popular term these days, zero-trust networks. The old conceptual style of a castle wall and moat to defend a network was deprecated several years ago. As a result of the dissolution of the traditional perimeter, a stronger focus has to be placed on the strength of authentication, authorization, and trust models for the users.

The antiquated notion of an information security practitioner running through the office brandishing their flaming sword of justice above their heads screaming "thou shall not pass" has at long last reached the denouement. Whether you are responsible for the security in a financial organization or one that makes teddy bears it is necessary to adapt and learn to trust, but verify.

Join Cisco for this talk on Zero Trust.

Sam Curry, Chief Security Officer, Cybereason

Somewhere out there, in a market crowded by over-qualified workers deluged by job offers, the next generation of CISOs is maturing. But how can CISOs train tomorrow's security executives when today's well-known security talent deficit makes it difficult to fill even the most basic roles?

Retaining cyber professionals isn't just a matter of offering the biggest paycheck - it requires getting creative with cross-training, hands-on experience and developing collaborative solutions with fellow CISOs.

Attend this talk with Sam Curry, Chief Security Officer at Cybereason, to explore strategies for identifying and developing the next generation of CISOs, as well as how to excel in your own role and lay the foundation for a stronger security practice.

A poor customer experience and insufficient security in the account opening process has been shown to directly negatively impact long-term customer loyalty, retention and profitability. New technologies, such as digital identity verification, facial comparison, e-signature, liveness detection, biometrics, and more - are helping banks reinvent how they attract and convert new applicants into happy customers during the digital account opening and onboarding process - while reducing abandonment rates and application fraud.

Key Topics in this session will include:

Dan Fein, Director of Email Security Products, Americas, Darktrace

Today, 94% of cyber-threats still originate in the inbox. 'Impersonation attacks' are on the rise, as artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to automatically generate spear-phishing emails, or 'digital fakes', that expertly mimic the writing style of trusted contacts and colleagues.

Humans can no longer distinguish real from fake on their own - businesses are increasingly turning to AI to distinguish friend from foe and fight back with autonomous response. In an era when thousands of documents can be encrypted in minutes, 'immune system' technology takes action in seconds - stopping cyber-threats before damage is done. Find out how in this session.

Renee Tarun, Deputy CISO, Fortinet

With unprecedented levels of remote working, organizations have had to respond quickly and prioritize IT and security requirements in a rapidly changing environment. In these uncertain times, organizations will need to be prepared for a variety of challenges to ensure secure operations. Organizations will need to shore up their networks to prepare for the influx of applications, devices, and other technologies necessary to support and protect customers, employees, and their business. This session will help organizations understand how to pivot quickly, where to focus their attention, and be strategic in their planning for both today's and tomorrow's security challenges.

Brad Beutlich, Vice President of Western and LATAM Sales, Entrust

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.

We'll discuss why nCipher's general purpose hardware security modules (HSMs) are used to solve real-world issues; regardless of company size or vertical market. You'll also discover why it's important to protect the crypto keys associated with Database Encryption, File Encryption, Digital Signatures & Certificates, IoT Device Certification, Blockchain, Digital Payments, SSL, PKI and more. Crypto keys are everywhere: We directly integrate with F5, Palo Alto, CyberArk, Gigamon and BeyondTrust, just to name a few.

Any and every one is a target for nation-state grade cyber attacks, especially during a global crisis. During times of crisis there is a shift in focus which allows cyber-attacks to grow and intensify, and a large portion of them are nation-state grade. The private sector, all verticals and industries, have always been a target for these, and the pandemic has only worsened it. These highly advanced mechanisms of cyber assault are continuously evolving and readily available for sale on the darknet, enabling hackers and new players looking for alternative income due to COVID19 to become extremely powerful attackers. The question arises - How can organizations protect themselves in today's crisis cyber reality? And what happens the day after? Fortunately, there are answers and solutions.

In his presentation, Ran Shahor, IDF Brigadier General (Ret.) will discuss the challenges organizations face during a time of crisis, the solutions, the holistic approach and the secret sauce needed in order to be protected and stay ahead of the curve.

Paul Dant, Vice President of Product Management, Digital.ai

When it comes to finance, mobile banking or payments apps, maintaining customer trust is crucial to protecting brand equity and revenue. But according to recent analyst research, a majority of mobile finance apps lack the security controls and code hardening necessary to prevent applications from being compromised. And relying on legacy methods - like network or perimeter protection that is incapable of detecting these kinds of attacks - can have dire consequences.

In this session, Arxan senior security engineer Paul Dant will discuss the impact of reverse engineering mobile applications and exposing vulnerabilities that can lead to a devastating breach. He'll share how to harden applications using code obfuscation, key and data encryption, and provide best practices for building a comprehensive security strategy that includes real-time visibility into active threats.

• Gain knowledge on the ease at which mobile apps can be reverse engineered - the first step in circumventing traditional security approaches
• Understand how common app vulnerabilities and development mistakes can lead to data exposure
• Learn what's necessary to implement a comprehensive mobile app security strategy

Strong identity and access management (IAM) is one key to preventing data breaches and limiting the blast radius should a security incident occur. But cloud IAM presents a new set of constructs for organizations to build and manage. Is cloud IAM the best identity and access control ever, or yet one more reason to tear your hair out in frustration? Join Jeremy Snyder, Senior Director of Solutions Engineering, and Alex Corstorphine, Senior Solutions Engineer, from DivvyCloud by Rapid7 for an active discussion and debate. Topics will include why managing cloud IAM is so complex, what challenges this creates for IT and cybersecurity professionals, and how leading organizations governing cloud IAM to reduce risk and the chance of a data breach.

Key takeaways include understanding how to:

• Gain visibility to assess, prioritize and remediate improper permission combinations that grant unintended or overly permissive access.
• Reduce access down to least privilege.
• Work to minimize cloud security blast radius.
