Bridging the gap between business and technology is not easy and requires discipline and balance between technology, people, and the business. For so many organizations today, technology is the business. Technology needs to be understood as a critical enabler in every part of the organization from the front line to the back office. It creates new value by crunching data to deliver new insights, it spurs innovation, and it disrupts traditional business models.

For business and technology leaders alike, new actions and behavioral changes can help their organizations make this shift. CIOs must take responsibility for problems, they should convey that when technology fails, many people typically share responsibility.

The only way to get honest, accurate, and relevant knowledge of where you're most ripe for exploitation is by taking an attacker’s perspective and routinely attacking your own respective environments like they would. Then, once you're finished with your discovery, fix what matters most, and consequentially, verify those fix actions are operational by attacking yourself again. Learn why this is one of the absolute best ways to improve your security posture. Best thing is, you can do this in an automated fashion quite easily with the right approach that is safe, affordable, and very reliable.

The digital era has ushered in a new wave of opportunities and challenges, with AI emerging as a driving force behind transformative business strategies. Join our in-person panel to explore how CIOs and CISOs can orchestrate AI-driven transformations while safeguarding their organizations against evolving threats.

Gain valuable insights from industry leaders on leveraging AI for competitive advantage and creating a resilient business environment in the face of growing cybersecurity risks.

Social engineering attacks are a growing concern for businesses and individuals alike, as cybercriminals continue to use advanced techniques to trick people into divulging sensitive information or performing actions that can lead to data breaches. In 2023, these attacks are expected to become even more sophisticated, making it increasingly challenging for individuals and businesses to identify and prevent them. To protect themselves, individuals and businesses must be vigilant and aware of these tactics. They must also implement comprehensive security measures, such as security awareness training, anti-phishing software, two-factor authentication, and access controls. Additionally, businesses must establish policies and procedures for responding to social engineering attacks, including incident response plans, data backup and recovery, and regular security assessments. By taking these proactive steps, businesses and individuals can better protect themselves from the risks associated with social engineering attacks in 2023 and beyond.

You’ve heard that “data is the new oil”. More accurately, “data is your currency”. It gives you the ability to conduct business. Mismanage it and there can be serious consequences. Lose it and you lose your business. 

With your “bills” spread across your environment, managing and protecting the “money” can be a monumental task. $100s, $50s, $20s, $10s, $5s, and lots of $1s are strewn about. Knowing where your most valuable bills are is foundational to any data security process. This session will examine the impact of placing appropriate controls to protect your most important business asset: your data.

Cloud computing services have become a cornerstone of modern business operations, providing organizations with the agility and scalability needed to thrive in the digital age. However, in 2023, the threat of cloud vulnerabilities will continue to grow as more companies adopt cloud services. Cybercriminals are constantly finding new ways to exploit vulnerabilities in cloud infrastructure, which can result in data breaches, unauthorized access, and financial losses. To mitigate the risks of cloud-related security incidents, businesses must prioritize implementing robust security measures such as multi-factor authentication, encryption, and regular penetration testing. Additionally, businesses must develop comprehensive incident response plans that take into account the unique challenges of cloud-based attacks. By taking these steps, businesses can protect themselves and their customers from the growing threat of cloud vulnerabilities in the digital age.
