Paolo Comi, Nadia Fabrizio: Quantum Secured Blockchain
Nov 13, 2020

This talk aims to share the experience achieved during Q-Secure Net, a 2020's project co-financed by the European Institute of Technology (EIT) and Italtel, Cefriel, Politecnico di Milano, CNR, UPM and Telefonica. Q-Secure Net will provide a cost-effective and flexible network solution for unconditionally secure communication services based on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) thought for fiber-optic networks.

The talk will also present an application of Blockchain Atomic Swaps for the exchange of securities and cryptocurrencies, developed in the project and based on QKD. Atomic Swaps have great potentials for financial scenarios regarding securities, crypto exchanges and cryptocurrencies but have specific security threats.

The QKD market is expected to grow over $980 million by 2024. In the long term, the QKD will be strategic for the design of new architectures in many sectors like telco, defence and transports and 5G sectors. QKD's infrastructural security and its ability to mitigate cyber-risks, also allow a whole new class of approaches and applications for Decentralised Finance.

 

 

Key Takeaways:

-          QKD Features

-          Capabilities for Fintech applications

-          Atomic Swap and Crypto Exchanges

-          How QKD can mitigate risk in applications like smart contracts for Decentralised Finance Scenarios (for example in the Atomic SWAP use case)

Mario van Riesen: The Evolution of Application Security
Nov 16, 2020

Cyberattacks have rapidly evolved since the advent of online transacting almost 25 years ago, with attackers continually escalating and refining their evasion techniques. While organisations and individuals continue to mobilise in an attempt to mitigate the global disruptions taking place around them, cybercriminals have wasted no time in exploiting the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, attackers and fraudsters call upon a sophisticated suite of tools, including human-powered click farms, social engineering, and malware – all designed to defeat traditional defenses such as WAFs & CAPTCHAs. 

This session will dive deeper into how organisations can keep pace with this precipitate shift and adjust their security postures accordingly, to more accurately reflect the realities of an ever-evolving threat landscape. 

Discussion Points:  

  • Attack Evolution - navigate the automated application attack-roadmap as it has progressed from the commodification of Credential Stuffing and ATO schemes to some of the most cutting-edge examples of Manual Fraud capability. 
  • Countermeasure Efficacy - discover how F5’s Application Fraud portfolio addresses the whole spectrum of eCrime attacks deterring cybercriminals who continually retool to circumvent traditional countermeasures. 
  • Inverting Friction - understand how organisations can protect their customers and brand without compromising user experience or collecting PII.

Anett Mádi-Nátor: C-Level Cybersecurity Awareness – Does the C-Suite Fall Behind in Understanding the Importance of Cybersecurity Services?
Nov 13, 2020

In the crisis created by Covid-19 it is even more obvious how C-level are reacting and in cases not reacting properly to new cybersecurity situations resulting from rapid and enforced digitalisation. Can or should they be given more time to adapt? Can they build up the proper cybersecurity decision making skillset? Is it worth the effort? The speaker explains how that is possible, what new digital roles should be created within an organisation and how to meet challenges posed by the transforming digital ecosystem.

Martin Kuppinger: Cybersecurity Trends in the Age of Work from Home
Nov 11, 2020

The way people are working has changed fundamentally. Cybersecurity is even more essential than before. Martin Kuppinger, Principal Analyst at KuppingerCole, will look at the factors that drive the relevance of cybersecurity, but also change the way cybersecurity is done right. He then will look at the trends in cybersecurity and how new technologies and methods help in mitigating cyber risks and improving cyber attack resilience. This includes looking at the impact of Work from Home, changing attack vectors, or the impact of AI on cybersecurity, and discussing what new technologies such as SOAR and Cyber Ranges can provide for getting better in cybersecurity. He also will look at the need for doing a thorough cybersecurity portfolio assessment, to optimize spending and getting a grip on the zoo of cybersecurity tools most businesses already have to pay for and to manage.

Christopher Schuetze: Safer With Security - How Fabrics Can Be Used to Manage the Complexity of Your Enterprise Security
Nov 13, 2020

A flexible architecture is an absolute must in order to keep pace with new challenges within a constantly evolving landscape. Christopher Schütze, Cybersecurity Practice Director and Lead Analyst at KuppingerCole, will look at methodologies that help to structure, reorganize, and extend the existing Cybersecurity landscape within your organization. He will examine current topics such as “Information is the new oil” and “Trust only with verification – Zero Trust” and how you can integrate this into your strategy. Information security and ensuring a high level of trust must be a fundamental part of Cybersecurity strategies in the years to come. This will help you to make the right choices and improve overall security, and learn how to be safer with security.

Jochen Fischer: A Small Leak Can Sink A Great Ship - Cybersecurity Warfare & SAP
Nov 13, 2020

Security is Culture – and culture starts with people (not technology!) The complex topic of SAP-security is a massive challenge for the almost 500.000 companies worldwide using SAP. The challenges are the same for everyone, and it is the combined corporate responsibility of the C-Level and all employees to protect the enterprise from threats. These core applications can be secured by focusing on the 3 main attack vectors: People, Processes, and Technology. Within this keynote, Jochen Fischer shares what needs to be done to define clear ownership and responsibilities for SAP-security. Enabling people to understand the risk in SAP is fundamental to design a sustainable strategy that is based on the individual risk profile of each individual company. It is time to stop the monkey business when it comes to mission-critical topics like security. As independent expert, Jochen Fischer provides state-of-the-art methodologies to deliver the right people the suitable skills required to protect SAP without burning money on tools that have no or limited effect on corporate cyber resilience.

Jean-Christophe Gaillard: The Cyber Security Skills Gap: Real Problem or Self-inflicted Pain?
Nov 12, 2020

You don’t have to go far these days to find security professionals complaining about skills shortages, and countless media outlets relaying their views. But there are at least two sides to this argument and the situation requires a more balanced approach. The security industry needs to rebuild its narrative to attract more raw talent at all levels.

Sergej Epp, Ashley Ward: Need for Speed: How DevOps is Changing Cybersecurity
Nov 12, 2020

Is your cybersecurity as fast as your business? Finding the right strategy to secure the growing speed and diversity of DevOps driven application development and dynamic infrastructures is hard. To master this journey, organisations have not only to adapt new security controls but in most cases to redefine their cybersecurity strategy and traditional approaches such as Defence-in-Depth and Zero Trust Architectures from scratch.
In this session, you will learn the FIRST PRINCIPLES how to align the pace of your cybersecurity to your business speed from both perspectives: a cybersecurity expert and a former developer.
