Topic for this Executive Dinner

 

Secure the Cloud, Transform Your Business

 

Please join a peer-to-peer discussion on how cloud risks are evolving and growing more sophisticated in today’s world. Sensitive data is rarely exposed by one risk—it takes an interplay of factors that combine to allow entry, lateral movement, and access. In a threat landscape where SOC teams can be inundated with risk alerts, prioritization is critical. We have to stop sorting risks by technical description—workload, platform, identity, data—and understand them by the way they can combine to expose sensitive data.

 

Join this session to learn how workload, identity, data, and platform risks most commonly interact to expose data. Also learn how identity’s indirect access can be hidden in multiple trust relationships and how to prioritize risks when you’ve got alert overload.

 

Discuss what’s next for cloud security and hear the story of how one UK organization was able strengthen its cloud security, simplify cloud operations, and reduce risk in their public cloud.
