Movin' On Up to the Cloud: How to Migrate your Application Connectivityshira koper
Migrating applications to the cloud or to another data center is a complex and risky process. First, you need to understand the applications you are currently running (application discovery). Then, you need to define and map the existing application connectivity flows (pre-migration), so that you can easily reestablish them post-migration.
If done manually, this is a difficult and time-consuming process, and a single mistake can cause outages, compliance violations and create holes in your security perimeter.
Understanding the migration destination is just as important; cloud security architecture is fundamentally different from physical networks, and it is extremely difficult to translate the network connectivity flows to the cloud security controls and then manage network security policies cohesively across the entire hybrid enterprise environment. All in all, migrating application connectivity is a complex, tedious and error-prone process that can take months and often compromises security, compliance and business agility.
In this webinar, Avivi Siman-Tov, Product Manager at AlgoSec, will explore how to simplify and accelerate large-scale complex application migration projects, while making security a priority.
Attend this webinar to discover best practices to:
- Automatically discover applications and their existing connectivity flows

Presented by renowned industry expert Prof. Avishai Wool, this new technical webinar will cover best practices for incorporating security into the DevOps lifecycle. This insight will help ensure better collaboration between security and the development teams right from the start and reduce the time, cost and risk of deploying applications into production.
In this webinar Professor Wool will cover how to:
•Identify and map existing applications and their connectivity flows to establish a baseline
•Adjust application connectivity for each stage of the DevOps lifecycle – without coding
•Automatically deploy connectivity throughout the development lifecycle using templates
•Proactively assess risk and compliance throughout the DevOps process
•Manage and maintain security in the production environment

Data Privacy, Security, and Sovereignty in a Cloudy WorldNetskope
Jon Oltsik, ESG Senior Principal Analyst and widely recognized information security expert, reviews what it means to ensure data privacy, security, and sovereignty, and what you should be looking for from your cloud providers.
Despite the cost advantage, organisations across several sectors remain resistant to the shift to cloud. This is due to the concerns around data security in cloud computing. This concern is not entirely misplaced.
What kept your CISO up last night? What market forces and threats are most impactful to your peers? How will these shape the future of enterprise security? Bill Burns, Informatica CISO and former Scale Venture Partners Executive-in-Residence, formed an InfoSec investment thesis by combining his 20+ years of domain expertise with over 100 CISO peer interviews and online survey responses. In this session Bill will share his results and perspectives on what's ahead for practical enterprise security.
The borders of enterprise network infrastructure are porous at best. It’s too late to close them, and it’s probably best that you don’t. Cloud services, mobility, and technology adopted by lines-of-business (also known as shadow IT) may erode much of the control you once had over your infrastructure, but your business is using these technologies for a reason. They get the job done.
What you need to do is gain as much visibility and management as possible over these networks and services. The Borderless Enterprise enables this transformation.
These slides - based on the webinar featuring Shamus McGillicuddy, research director at Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), Doug Roberts, director of products at Fluke Networks, and Mike Pennacchi, owner and lead network analyst at Network Protocol Specialists - cover:
- How enterprise IT organizations are succeeding with these new technologies
- Real-world examples of how IT can be an enabler and a partner in this new era

The Secure Path to Value in the Cloud by Denny HeaberlinCloud Expo
Even as cloud and managed services grow increasingly central to business strategy and performance, challenges remain. The biggest sticking point for companies seeking to capitalize on the cloud is data security. Keeping data safe is an issue in any computing environment, and it has been a focus since the earliest days of the cloud revolution. Understandably so: a lot can go wrong when you allow valuable information to live outside the firewall. Recent revelations about government snooping, along with a steady stream of well-publicized data breaches, only add to the uncertainty.
In his session at 16th Cloud Expo, Denny Heaberlin, Security Product Manager with Windstream's Cloud and Data Center Marketing team, discussed how to manage these concerns and how choose the right cloud vendor, an essential part of any cloud strategy.
Public cloud providers operate on a shared responsibility model, which places the onus on the customer to define and secure the data and applications that are hosted within cloud infrastructure.
To that end, it is critical that organizations accurately and selectively pinpoint which cloud workloads and virtual IT assets must be monitored, updated and patched based on developing threats to customer data and applications.
In this webcast, Mark Butler, Chief Information Security Officer at Qualys, and Hari Srinivasan, Director of Product Management for Qualys Cloud and Virtualization Security detail how you can gain complete visibility of your organization’s entire cloud asset inventory and security posture to help you keep up with shared security responsibility models across public cloud infrastructure.
The presentation covers:
• Challenges surrounding increased migration to public clouds
• Using automation for secure DevOps
• How to ensure effective and efficient operations

Simplifying Security Management in the Virtual Data CenterAlgoSec
As enterprise data centers evolve to private and hybrid clouds, orchestration and automation are key to unleashing business agility.
But for most organizations, managing security and application connectivity involves manual, time-consuming processes that are error-prone and slow down the business. Complex application connectivity requirements, bloated firewall policies, poor processes and lack of communication between application developers, network and security teams create business disruptions and expose organizations to risk.
Join AlgoSec and guest Forrester Research to learn how organizations can automate security operations in the data center to manage security at the speed of business. By attending you will learn:
* How the concept of Zero Trust enables the business and minimizes risk
* Why management is the new backplane and security policy orchestration is critical in virtual environments
* How to ensure security policy accuracy throughout data center migration and consolidation projects
* How to securely deploy, maintain and decommission connectivity for data center applications
The Imperative for Visibility into Cloud Native Web Services TrafficDevOps.com
Containers allow for organizations adopting the cloud to rapidly scale their operations to meet customer demand. But with speed comes security risks: the east-west traffic between microservices that power distributed modern applications can be susceptible to attacks just as north-south (client to app or API origin) traffic.
In this webinar, we'll discuss why application layer protection is even more important with containerized apps and services using cloud-native technologies like Istio and Envoy. We'll also demonstrate how to integrate and automate next-gen security protection to inspect east-west services traffic so DevSecOps teams can secure their applications without rapid iterations to release market-leading features. Attendees will learn:
Why cloud native is not just “lift and shift” and operating legacy apps in the cloud;
How cloud-native applications using frameworks like Istio and Envoy Proxy differ from legacy applications;
How a next-gen WAF and RASP can provide visibility into east-west traffic to detect application layer attacks;
How to embed next-gen WAF security in the CI/CD automation pipeline so DevOps teams can deliver features faster, with better security.

Compliance made easy. Pass your audits stress-free.AlgoSec
Don’t fail an audit ever again. Yes, it’s possible.
It doesn’t matter what regulation you are talking about, whether your own internal compliance standard or a common global framework such as PCI DSS, SOX, HIPPA, SWIFT, or even HKMA.
Radically reduce firewall rules with application-driven rule recertificationAlgoSec
Does your network still have obsolete firewall rules? Do you often feel overwhelmed with the number of firewall rules in your network?
To make sure your network is secure and compliant, you need to regularly review and recertify firewall rules. However, manual firewall rule recertification is complex, time-consuming and error-prone, and mistakes may cause application outages.
Discover a better way to recertify your firewall rules with Asher Benbenisty, AlgoSec’s Director of Product Marketing, as he discusses how associating application connectivity with your firewall rules can radically reduce the number of firewall rules on your network as well as the efforts involved in rule recertification.
In this webinar, we will discuss:
* The importance of regularly reviewing and recertifying your firewall rules
* Integrating application connectivity into your firewall rule recertification process
* Automatically managing the rule-recertification process using an application-centric approach
Cessation of Misconfigurations: Common Network Misconfiguration Risks & How t...AlgoSec
Misconfigurations aren’t simply inconvenient mistakes but serious security threats. According to Gartner, 99% of all firewall breaches will be caused by misconfigurations by 2020 and misconfigurations made OWASP’s list of Top 10 most critical web application security risks.
A single change to a network device can have far-reaching effects on your business and create security holes for cybercriminals, impact your audits, and cause costly outages that bring your business to a standstill.
In this webinar, Avivi Siman-Tov, AlgoSec’s Director of Product, will show examples of common misconfigurations, including device changes, business application connectivity changes, and data center migrations. He will also reveal specific techniques to help you avoid them.
Watch the webinar to learn how to:
Understand and map your entire network before you make a change
Proactively assess the impact of a change to ensure it does not break connectivity, affect compliance or create a security hole and understand the impact of changes to your entire network
Maximize the capabilities of network management automation to avoid common misconfigurations
Avoid common mistakes when making changes to your network security devices
Put out audit security fires, pass audits -every time AlgoSec
Compliance with network and data security regulations and internal standards is vital and mission-critical. But with increasing global regulations and network complexities, it’s harder than ever to keep up.
Firewall management and network security policies are critical components in achieving compliance. Firewall audits are complex and demanding and documentation of current rules is lacking. There’s no time and resources to find, organize, and inspect all your firewall rules. Instead of being proactive and preventative, network security teams are constantly putting out fires.
In this webinar, you will learn:
• The golden rules for passing a network security audit
• Best practices to maintain continuous compliance
• How to conduct a risk assessment and fix issues
Learn how to prevent fires and pass network security audits every time.
Tal Dayan, AlgoSec’s product manager, will reveal the Firewall Audit Checklist, the six best practices to ensure successful audits.
By adopting these best practices, security teams will significantly improve their network’s security posture and reduce the pain of ensuring compliance with regulations, industry standards and corporate policies.

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).

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
