Details

Organizations face challenges from many directions and include threats to the business from state-sponsored cyberattacks, geopolitical turmoil, inflation, extreme weather conditions, and a shortage of security skills. The CISO must balance these threats with new approaches in continuous risk assessment, protecting digital assets, and managing the rapid pace of innovation in security technologies. For CISOs, and their teams, the new paradigms include cyber resilience, digital trust and data and digital sovereignty, and compliance with legal obligations.

Protection of IT assets, whether data, applications, network or device, is a fundamental requirement, usually made compulsory by an enterprise’s technology or legal department. Failure to protect these assets can result in disastrous, highly publicized breaches that can cause customers, partners, and stakeholders to lose trust in an organization — and for an organization to lose competitive advantage and profits.

All the companies are rethinking their cyber resilience and proactively ensuring their organization maintains good cyber hygiene.
Join us in this event, where some relevant topics will be covered as help available from MSSPs, new capabilities in AI-ML-enabled automation, better orchestration tools provide options to shore up the business' resilience in the face of disruption. Protecting critical business assets from breaches and attacks from cybercriminals is key to engendering trust and complying with new and emerging digital sovereignty rules. Ransomware, DDoS, and system intrusion attacks continue to rise as cybercriminals prospers.
