Title: What I Learned at Gartner Summit 2019 Abstract: The Gartner Summit 2019 agenda featured five comprehensive programs to cover your security and risk management key priorities and challenges. Digital transformation continues to challenge the conventions of information risk and security management. It requires a coherent digital security program based on a clear vision and strategy. Businesses have been inundated with information on what recent privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA require, but many are still trying to figure out how to comply with them on a practical level. The new Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) provides perspectives on how Criminals simply shift their focus and adapt their tactics to locate and steal the data they find to be of most value. Gartner includes data ethics and privacy on their list of the top 10 strategic technology trends of 2019, placing it on the same level as AI-driven development, blockchain, and edge computing. Many companies are focusing on data privacy from the legal and security side, which are foundational, but are missing the focus on data. The cloud, SaaS applications, and user mobility are powerful enablers of digital transformation, but many IT organizations are grappling with legacy network and security architectures that haven't evolved in decades. In the era of Cloud 3.0, companies are re-imagining business processes from and for the cloud. With these new opportunities comes a new cybersecurity reality for IT leaders in a hybrid, multicloud world. At a minimum, cloud computing breaks into 3 primary layers: SaaS, PaaS and IaaS. This presentation will explain primary security controls. You’ll learn how to take a strategic approach to risk, improve business and data resilience, build digital trust and implement a new generation of continuously adaptive security strategies. Cloud security remains a top priority. This presentation summarizes the problems, recommended processes, and new product types to address key issues.
