Assaf Pilo - AI as an Enabler for Detecting PI Across Large Data Infrastructures

Numerous malware variants are being created daily. To adjust to this evolution, machine learning tools are being utilized by security companies to detect the novel threats and new attack vectors. Same for the threat hunting, where the ML helps in proactively and iteratively parsing through networks detecting the advance threats. Important question is where we want to apply these advanced techniques. The technology should be applied in a smart way to tackle specific problems. In this panel we will discuss the current state of AI in cybersecurity and what the future will hold.

For over 12 years, Helsana used an IAM solution based on NetIQ Identity Manager, which was extended and adapted to individual needs. Not only did the system's maintainability suffer as a result, but its usability also no longer met today's expectations. A new, leaner and more modern system with SailPoint IdentityIQ should not only help to standardize the processes, but also offer the possibility to tackle old and new challenges in the field of IAM/IAG. It shows where Helsana was at the beginning of the project, where she is today and what the company has learned along the way.

The term Cyber sounds very attractive and everyone wants to use this term nowadays. Although many people talk about cybersecurity, however only some of them pay some attention to cybersecurity governance.
On the one hand, it is a challenge for top management to govern cybersecurity on the other hand it is challenge for internal audit to give an appropriate assurance on cybersecurity. Should Internal Audit give an assurance on cybersecurity – that is one of the most difficult questions? If yes – how? If not – who should? 
Cybersecurity is more about people, management and risk management and less about technologies. Although there are plenty of important, highly recommended technical fixes, new tools and techniques to adopt and implement, however if organizations’ management do not show appropriate leadership, if organizations do not have appropriate structure and processes for cybersecurity governance, than these organizations will be victims of hackers today or tomorrow.

Globalisation has spread business and production sites all over the world. Companies are faced with distributed IT systems as well as with different and demanding regulations in various countries, spanning from USA through to Europe and Asia, especially China and Russia. For many businesses IAM is a central part when it comes to managing employees, partners, customer, things and APIs in a secure and reliable way.

IT security departments are no longer just responsible for securing digital assets and appliances. They must - with equal priority - help create a secure environment that inspires productivity and empowers employees to innovate.

In this talk, we discuss challenges faced by large enterprises around embracing the Human Factor (security awareness, phishing / social engineering, password hygiene/policies, etc.). We also share insights into how key security indicators such as overall vulnerability levels and basic security hygiene can be measured and compared across organizations, industries, and countries.

We introduce our approach to prioritizing IT security initiatives that have the most valuable immediate impact on hackability and discuss some common mistakes that can be easily fixed at little or no cost

As a result of the continous evolution of IT platforms, new environments and applications show up to simplify our lives. Some receive them with suspicion, others embrace them. But security challenges don't change, they just multiply. Visibility and segmentation cannot be a roadblock on the never-ending quest for innovation and business agility.  

Ola Sergatchov, Vice President of Corporate Strategy at Guardicore, in her presentation, will explore how we can deliver more with less. How to accelerate while reducing security risks, and most importantly, align security, DevOps and business objectives without major IT overhaul.

Artificial Intelligence is surely one of the hottest topics in nearly every industry nowadays, and not without reason. Some of its practical applications have already become an integral part of our daily lives – both at home and in offices; others, like driverless cars, are expected to arrive within a few years. With AIs beating humans not just in chess, but even in public debating, surely, they’ve already matured enough to replace security analysts as well?

We see stories on data breaches every week, happening due to weak cyber security. Massive fines are issued based on GDPR, PCI, and consumer protection around the world. Proactive. fast & efficient handling of cyber security incidents is a key to survival for any organisation, but there are also costs that are rarely mentioned: the personal consequences for those affected by a data breach.

Too often those of us in the cybersecurity space get wrapped up in comparing, deploying, and managing point solutions. While this is a necessary consequence of both the fragmented nature of the market and the highly specialized nature of our work, sometimes we need to step back and look at the big picture. What kind of information am I charged with protecting? How can I discover and keep track of it all? What kinds of controls can I apply? How can data be protected in different environments, on different platforms, etc? We'll look at the various stages in the life and death of information and how to best manage and protect it.

With the preview-release of Azure Sentinel, Microsoft has shifted some features from Azure Security Center to its new threat hunting solution. But how do all the security tools Microsoft offers nowadays integrate with each other? How can you find a way through this security jungle? And how do you make sure to have the right tools in place when it comes to protecting your IT environments and hunting threats?
Join cloud security expert and Microsoft MVP Tom Janetscheck for this demo-rich session to get all these questions answered and to learn how to protect your resources easily and efficiently.

There are many challenges business are facing when they are implementing IAM and Cybersecurity, be it role management and access controls or efficient analytics in the SOC that narrows down the incidents to put the focus of investigation on. As AI augments us increasingly in our daily live activities as well as workers on the factory floor, it also already is able to augment us in doing Identity Management and Cybersecurity better. Martin Kuppinger will look at the areas where AI already is used and where we expect AI to hep us revolutionizing the way we do Cybersecurity and IAM. He will provide perspective that rate the impact and maturity of technologies and deliver guidance on how to pick the best technology for your use cases.
