Cyber Security Threats Facing Small Businesses--June 2019Dawn Yankeelov
This presentation was made by Cloudnexus Founder Jay Rollins at the Technology Association of Louisville Kentucky's Cybersecurity Summit on June 14, 2019.
This paper discusses how information security function in enterprises must engage with business users and stakeholders to ensure innovation and adoption of digital transformation.
The promises of the digital new world is inextricably locked with cloud computing technologies.
Cloud computing technology is central to the converging interconnecting forces of collaboration, mobility, BYOD, IoT and social enterprise.
The information/data security and entitlements of users of these services and apps is bound to their identities and the contexts within which they may partake in this ecosystem.
Traditional security models, information governance, identity management and role based access control don’t quite cut the mustard.
However, new technologies are yet to be tested both commercially and functionally.
The potential benefits to the enterprise such as seamless collaboration, agility and efficiency are too rewarding to ignore. The security industry must help organisations balance the risks and rewards.

Jason Harrell - Compliance and Security: Building a Cybersecurity Risk Manage...centralohioissa
Global regulations are driving the needs for businesses in all sectors to have cybersecurity programs that are designed to fit the organizations risk profile. At the same time, there is a lack of clarity on how much one should spend on managing these risks and the sophistication and number of risk mitigants that are required to manage these risks.
Company executives and board of directors are held personally liable for having the appropriate oversight and management of these controls and are looking for their CISO and CIROs to provide them assurance that these controls are in place and operating effectively. An attempt to balance the requirements and the expectations is a delicate balance. This presentation will look at the regulatory landscape and how this landscape is affecting client, executive, and board-level expectations for cybersecurity risk management. It will also provide some recommendations on how to approach the development of a cybersecurity risk management program.
Business Continuity, Data Privacy, and Information Security: How do they link?PECB

The emails that you want are only the tip of the iceberg that you get.
Your Challenge
Within the email security gateway (ESG) marketplace, there are numerous vendors with varying options who all claim to be the perfect fit for your organization. It becomes challenging to sift through all the offerings and find the right one.
An ESG must serve a multitude of functions for the organization, as well as meet an array of requirements, all of which can be hard to accurately assess and include confidently.
IT security always struggles with costs. An email gateway can become expensive, but it is vital and thus needs to have a strong case made for implementation, improvement, or replacement scenarios.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
Cloud adoption among business functions is already high. Moving email to the cloud is just another step. Take this into consideration when selecting an ESG.
Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) and Zero-Day attacks are changing the way organizations deal with threats. Recognize the need for greater visibility and tools that stay current with these developments.
Impact and Result
Understand developments within the ESG market to properly evaluate all capabilities and functions of an ESG.
Evaluate ESG vendors and products based on your enterprise requirements.
Determine which products are most appropriate for particular use cases and scenarios.

How close is your organization to being breached | Safe SecurityRahul Tyagi
Traditional methods are certainly limited in
their capabilities and this is easily proven by
the multitude of breaches businesses were a
victim of, across the globe. The 2020 Q3 Data
Breach QuickView Report revealed that the
number of records exposed in 2020 has
increased to 36 billion globally. The report
stated that there were 2,953 publicly
reported breaches in the first three quarters
of 2020 itself! 2020 is already named the
“worst year on record” by the end of Q2 in
terms of the total number of records
exposed. With the growing sophistication of
cyber-attacks and global damages related
to cybercrime reaching $6 trillion by 2021, we
need a solution that simplifies
cybersecurity.

2015 Energy Industry Cybersecurity Research UpdateGridCyberSec
ScottMadden, Inc., one of North America’s leading energy consulting firms, has released a report on cybersecurity within the energy sector. This new report helps utilities understand how their cybersecurity practices and perceptions compare to those of industry peers. It is a resource for utility executives evaluating their cybersecurity capabilities. Additional industry cybersecurity information can be found on ScottMadden’s sponsored website: GridCyberSec.com.
The Next Great Challenge for CISOs
I am honored to be recognized! Cybersecurity is truly a team effort at a strategic level, either we all work together or the threats will tear us down piecemeal! Every person, no matter their role, can play an important part in making digital technology trustworthy and keeping the Internet secure, private, and safe.
Alert Logic Cloud Security Report analyze a year of security data to find insights to better help defend against latest threats.
Three interesting things found in the report are:
1. Differences between threats in the cloud and in traditional infrastructure
2. what makes a company more vulnerable to attacks
3. why having a good understanding of the Cyber Kill Chain could help take a preventative approach to cloud security
Today, the delegation of risk decisions to the IT team
cannot be the only solution and has to be a shared
responsibility. The board and business executives are
expected to incorporate the management of cyber risk
as part of their business strategy since they are
accountable to stakeholders, regulators and
customers. For the CROs, CISOs, and Security and Risk
Management Professionals to be on the same page,
there has to be a single source of truth for
communicating the impact that cyber risk has on
business outcomes, in a language that everyone can
understand.

Scalar Security Roadshow: Toronto Presentation - April 15, 2015Scalar Decisions
On April 15, 2015, Scalar hosted our Security Roadshow in Toronto where we'll be focused on defence in three key areas - endpoint, application, and network. Led by our team of experts, these quick-fire, interactive sessions will arm you with the knowledge you need to improve your cyber security posture in some of the most common areas of vulnerability.
Defend the Endpoint with Bromium
Bromium is a new security protection tool for the host that relies on task-based virtualization. In this demo we'll look at how Bromium runs and protects the endpoint. We'll invite 0days from the audience and bring our own to show how the system really works. Much like how each virtual server is contained in a hypervisor, with Bromium each individual task on a host is contained in its own task-based virtual container. If you’ve ever looked at the Windows Task Manager, or the output of a Unix ‘ps’ process list, imagine if each group of processes, that makes up the task, was contained in its own hypervisor. That can be 40-50 tasks or more, each isolated in its own little hypervisor with no real access to the host.
Why is task virtualization helpful? By keeping each task in its own hypervisor, Bromium gives you a bottoms-up view of each individual task’s behaviour – without impacting system performance. If each process is contained in its own hypervisor, it’s easy to see when a process begins spawning other activities or creating any unusual traffic. Basically, it can very easily identify anything shifty. This is the most granular level of inspection you can get at a host level – Bromium is there at the very beginning when the virus begins to execute.
Defend the Application with WhiteHat
In this session we will look at a newer approach to application security and penetration testing, which combines persistent and automated testing processes to continuously monitor applications for vulnerabilities, as well as deep inspection of the business logic by trained specialists. This approach exceeds newer PCI 3 requirements and provides ongoing assurance that web application vulnerabilities are quickly detected and tracked to remediation.
We'll walk through the WhiteHat Security client management portal and discuss the WhiteHat methodology that can now be used, by you, to leverage the 150+ application specialists at WhiteHat to build a continuous application assessment process for your company's active web applications and software development teams.
Defend the Network with LogRhythm
As the security landscape changes, Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools that detect and investigate security breaches and threats have become increasingly complex to implement, integrate, and support. Inefficient solutions leave organizations slow to defend against and respond to complex attacks.
LogRhythm’s Security Intelligence Platform has removed the complexity from SIEM, while leveraging real-time threat intelligence with behavioural an
XtremIO finally delivers the breakthrough scale-out architecture, consistent performance, data reduction, thin provisioning, and manageability you’ve been waiting for in an enterprise flash array.
Hyperconverged Infrastructure: The Leading Edge of VirtualizationScalar Decisions
Hyper-convergence is today's leading edge of virtualization. Technologies have entered the market that have greatly simplified the deployment and maintenance of virtualized workloads. In this session, we will discuss the complexity associated with these types of highly virtualized environments and the modern approaches to reducing it.

Scalar Customer Case Study: Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am GamesScalar Decisions
Toronto will soon host the largest international multi-sport Games in Canada, when more than 7,600 athletes from 41 countries across the Americas will compete at the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. Understandably,
IT security is top of mind for the Organizing Committee (known as TO2015). The event will rely on a number of applications and web portals, which include an interactive volunteer portal, athlete accreditation management
tools and a travel logistics site. Securing the data centre where these applications reside is of critical importance, ensuring risks are mitigated, threats are prevented and regulatory requirements are met.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
