Accelerating Digital Transformation 2022

– Understanding the goal for security automation in your public cloud.

– Implementing infrastructure automation solutions to build security at the base layer.

– Building a strong detection and automated remediation pipelines to address misconfigurations.

– Continuously improving your automation to fit compliance frameworks.

In the face of skyrocketing cyber risk, detecting and responding to attacks is no longer enough. Organizations must take proactive steps to prevent threats before they happen, and to recover if compromised. In this session, Darktrace unveil an ambitious new approach to security, with core engines powering AI technologies to prevent, detect, respond, and ultimately heal from attacks. Together, these engines combine to strengthen organizations’ security posture in a virtuous AI feedback ‘loop,’ which provides powerful end-to-end, bespoke, and self-learning solutions unique to each organization.

The complexity of software supply chains, and the risks of getting supply chain management wrong are highlighted in President Biden’s Executive Order on Cybersecurity making this a top priority for all DevOps teams. This session will cover several common supply chain attacks, ranging from typo-squatting and project take-overs through to attacks on package managers that lead to dependency confusion.

• Familiarisation with the cyber criminal’s toolkit: which threats are the panel most fearful of?
• How have digital transformation initiatives exposed businesses to new attack vectors?
• Understanding the reputational impact of an unmitigated cyber-attack.

• How to achieve data confidentiality, integrity, and availability in a multicloud environment.
• Whether the cloud or on-prem is more secure.
• The must-haves of data at scale.
• The opportunities for safeguarding data at scale.

• Understanding how much better protected your data is with MFA. 
• Learn how to establish the right MFA model for your needs. 
• How MFA can be a key lynchpin for securing your digital transformation objectives. 

With so many different variables to consider when designing and implementing a security strategy for your cloud infrastructure, you need a clear plan for setting priorities and building a course of action. Best practices and compliance standards are a good first step. But they don’t give you a tool for assessing the maturity of your current cloud security practices and a roadmap for continuous improvement.

We created a lightweight and easy to understand framework to help you assess the maturity of your current cloud security practices and build a roadmap for continuous improvement.

In this workshop, we will introduce the Security Maturity framework and explain how to adapt it to the needs of your organization.

Find out how to:

1. Gain a clear picture of where your organization currently stands on its path to a secure cloud environment
2. Design a cloud security strategy for your enterprise in reachable, practical and clear milestones
3. Create a common language between various stakeholders in your organization and getting them on-board
4. Leverage automated solutions to help you on the road to cloud security maturity across AWS, Azure and GCP
