Sep 7, 2023 12:00pm - 1:05pm (Eastern) | Keynote | "Understanding and Managing Neurodivergent Staff" This presentation is the product of 25 years of managing cybersecurity staff, before researching the Neurodivergent mind to realize I’ve unexpectedly developed unique and effective approaches in helping staff, who were written off by other managers, to become focused and productive. I will describe the different traits of the spectrum and how to capitalize on the unique “superpower” that different people have. I will provide specific guidance on different ways peoples’ minds works, and how to make them as individuals, and the entire team, successful. Even if you don’t currently manage staff, you will find this talk informative and helpful in better understanding some of your colleagues, and maybe even yourself. | |

Sep 7, 2023 2:00pm - 2:20pm (Eastern) | OPSWAT | Zero-Trust: What it means and how to take a holistic approach to securing modern IT ecosystems From web applications to email and software supply chains – every facet of an organization’s digital ecosystem requires robust protection. A zero-trust architecture can mean a lot of things and be daunting to implement, but it’s critical to prevent the pervasive risk of file-borne threats that could include malware, viruses, ransomware, and malicious scripts, often camouflaged within innocuous file formats. The foundational steps to fortify defenses begin with asset and data identification, data flow mapping, access controls, network segmentation, and incident response planning. However, what’s next, and how do you continue to build a zero-trust security architecture? The answer lies in a layered defense strategy, incorporating true zero-trust technologies to not only drive compliance but mature your cybersecurity posture. This layered approach should include multiscanning to significantly enhance threat detection rates, data sanitization to ensure file safety before use, country of origin detection to prevent potentially malicious code or files from infiltrating the organization, and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) to ensure the integrity of sensitive data by scrutinizing files prior to their transit. Finally, emerging technologies like adaptive threat analysis can provide actionable threat intelligence, enabling organizations to stay one step ahead of potential adversaries. Experts at OPSWAT know first-hand what it takes to safeguard digital assets and ensure the resilience of organizations’ IT and OT infrastructure. Hear Joe Edwards, VP of Global Sales Engineering share his insights on implementing and maintaining robust zero-trust security in this evolving and complex threat landscape. | |

Sep 7, 2023 2:40pm - 3:03pm (Eastern) | Seemplicity | DevSecOps Alchemy: Communications, Processes and Visibility The August 2023 SANS DevSecOps Survey shows that latest automated tools — such as CNAPP, CSPM, and CWPP — by themselves are not enough to succeed with DevSecOps. The survey reported that automated application testing grew by 52% between 2022 and 2023, yet organizations reported that tools like these were seen as less useful than in 2022. How is that possible? Great DevSecOps requires a foundation of solid testing data plus good communications and consistent processes. Join Seemplicity as we share our insights from the SANS survey and talk about a foundation for successful DevSecOps. | |
