SentinelIPS | CIS Controls in the Real World | Ted Gruenloh, Chief Operating Officer

As a vendor, we witness first-hand the tangible effect that best practices like the CIS Controls have on our customers’ network security. From our perspective, it’s easy to see who is on top of their security game … and who could really benefit from the guidance these controls provide. In this discussion, we’ll walk through several of the CIS Controls, review the changes to the new V8,  and provide real-world case studies to illustrate how different security tools and services can work together – sometimes in not-so-obvious ways – to reduce risk, and keep your network safe and secure.

Check Point | A Strategy For Securing Your Everything; How Non-Integrated Solutions Challenge Overall Enterprise Security | Grant Asplund Chief Cyber Security Evangelist

Security practitioners understand the need to implement new controls that help their organizations’ defend against the rising number of attacks and Fifth Generation threats like the SolarWinds Orion supply chain hack. But slowed economic growth and the push to secure systems from sophisticated new threats challenges many companies.

These global market conditions underscore the importance of employing a consolidation strategy with a unified security architecture at its center that protects cloud, networks, endpoints, and mobile devices.

Join Grant Asplund, Growth Technologies Evangelist for Check Point Software Technologies, as he shares the building blocks for putting in place a consolidation strategy that:

  • Increases security efficiency with a unified security architecture
    • Improves your organization’s overall threat prevention profile
    • Eliminates complexity caused by managing disparate systems
    • Reduces total cost of ownership

Keynote | SentinelOne | What Elon Musk and SpaceX Can Teach Us About Ransomware and Cybersecurity | Morgan Wright Cyberterrorism and Cybercrime Analyst, Network Television Chief Security Advisor, SentinelOne
As a kid I always assumed that when you shot a rocket into space, other than the capsule, all the other parts burned up on re-entry into the atmosphere. Elon Musk asked why couldn’t you just reuse the rocket? And SpaceX was launched. To change cybersecurity, we have to change our mindset. In 30 minutes I will challenge conventional thinking, proverbial wisdom, and ask a new question.
