Aligning Your Cybersecurity Program With the Corporate Business Goals and Objectives

Abstract: Cybersecurity is business risk, not simply an IT problem and  security should be intrinsic, foundational and not an afterthought. Taking a proactive approach facilitates board-level cyber initiative buy-in, supports traction across all business lines, improves management alignment for key priorities, and makes data complexity more applicable. Alignment of these complex issues is critical to better business efficiency and security. Our subject matter experts will share their thoughts on how this can be achieved.

No Zero Trust Without Full Network Visibility

Abstract: The concept that we can implicitly trust network users, devices and applications has proven to be a major vulnerability that has repeatedly been used against us, forcing the adoption of the Zero Trust concept.  But, you cannot build a Zero Trust Architecture without comprehensive network visibility. You must have visibility across users, devices, networks, applications and data for north-south as well as east-west traffic across physical, cloud, and hybrid environments. In this session, the panelists will discuss how network visibility helps in creating a framework before we can establish trust and give access to users and devices. We’ll also talk about best practices for network visibility including people, process, and technology issues and risks associated with implementation of network visibility projects.

Cult of the Dead Cow and the Battle for Hacker Hearts and Minds

Abstract: Cult of the Dead Cow is the oldest and most influential U.S. hacking group, known for inventing the word hacktivism and releasing tools that allowed almost anyone to hack Windows machines, which helped pressure Microsoft into doing security better. The group’s members then founded influential security companies @stake and Veracode and ran cybersecurity grantmaking at DARPA.

Though it began as a group of teenage Bulletin Board Service operators and morphed many times over the past 35 years, cDc has long been about finding new way to make people more secure.

The stakes continued to rise after the group’s heyday, with cyberwar, mass surveillance and disinformation now commonplace issues inside mainstream tech companies as well as government agencies.

What does this mean for security companies, agencies and tech more broadly? The way to get the best hackers is to make a play for idealists who want to get things done. 

Moderated by 20-year security journalist and bestselling Cult of the Dead Cow book author Joseph Menn, this panel features four veterans of @stake: founders Chris Rioux and Chris Wysopal, who went on to found Veracode; bug bounty entrepreneur Katie Moussouris; and Alex Stamos of Stanford, the former chief security officer at Facebook.

Security Implications of Digital Transformation

Abstract: The world has changed. Business and personal use of social media and modern digital engagement platforms have blurred over time, creating new enterprise protection challenges for organizations. These modern platforms—such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Slack, Instagram, the deep & dark web, mobile app stores and more—are becoming the #1 business driver and #1 security challenge of fast-growing organizations. In this session, the panel will dig into their experiences with rapidly increasing risks across the digital & social media realm. We will shed light on a range of threats that exist “beyond the firewall” that are often invisible to an organization’s current tech stack and SOC processes. The panel of experts will discuss their views on the threats their industries and organizations face and practical advice on gaining visibility and mitigating against these new and emerging risks.
