Gradient Cyber | Can an AI-Infused MXDR lead to an Autonomous SOC?

Organizations must detect and respond to cyber-attacks before the attacker’s objective is completed. Managed XDR is central to the job. AI is poised to be the force multiplier we’ve been awaiting. But is it a near-term reality? This presentation will cover:

 

  • Typical attack sequence and observable signals
  • Why is it so hard to catch the bad guys?
  • What is the detection and response process?
  • Historical AI in cyber, changes with LLMs
  • The next wave of AI: Agents
  • Whether to be bullish or bearish on SOC AI near-term potential

ESET | Cyber insurance is an important part of cyber resilience, but is it creating monoculture cybersecurity

As a cybersecurity product and services company, we are aware that recent events have caused many organizations to revisit their cyber resilience strategy – where cyber risk insurance is often seen as an essential element. Join us to gain a comprehensive insight into some of the recent major cyber-incidents, discoveries by researchers, the role insurers are playing in improving cybersecurity posture and their approach to managing risk. Understanding insurance requirements and how they change could provide valuable insight into risk reduction. We will also discuss how insurers may be increasing the danger of a monoculture cybersecurity ecosystem.

Contrast Security | The Radical Future of App and API Security Testing

Application security testing (AST) in pre-prod can be highly effective but robust regimens for doing so are shockingly rare. What you see instead are a few underutilized tools introduced mostly to check a compliance box without significantly reducing actual risk. On the other hand,  current tools and techniques for doing AST in production are very limited.

This talk explores technology and techniques to do it effectively in production which in turn fundamentally changes the economics of being able to do it well in pre-prod.

The parallel is that over the last decade or so, application performance and load testing moved from pre-prod to production with the introduction of efficient APM agents and practices like canary deploys. The motivations are the same. Production is the REAL context, not mocked or assumed. User behavior is also REAL, not simulated with automated or manual tests.

What are the equivalent technology and techniques so we can create an application vulnerability monitoring (AVM) movement? How close are we to perfecting them? What can you do to accelerate their adoption?

Adlumin | Multiple Personalities: Making Decisions in a Cyber Crisis

In a cyber crisis, the decisions made can be the difference between a controlled event and a business disrupting incident. The question is, who should be making these decisions: The senior person? The technical expert? The self-appointed hero? In this session, Mark Sangster will delve into the critical aspect of crisis leadership-removing the emotion. Human biases, office politics, and perceived personal fears often influence or delay sound decision-making. The key to success lies in our ability to harness these human factors to share expertise and ensure personal benefit does not trump organizational objections.

We invite you to join us for this insightful session with cybersecurity expert and author, Mark Sangster. He will be identifying common crisis personalities, exploring human bias, and considering leadership and learning models to help navigate the pitfalls of the human element in cyber incidents. Your presence and participation will add value to the discussion.
