SECURE Webinar | The Threat and Promise of Quantum Cybersecurity

Apr 25, 2022 12:00pm ‐ Apr 25, 2022 1:30pm

According to a recent survey, 80% of cybersecurity professionals believe that quantum computers will become powerful enough over the next few years to break current encryption methods. However, most professionals believe their organizations have not done enough to prepare against this threat and are unsure of the best way forward. The good news is that quantum-resilient cryptography can also be found in quantum computing.

In this webinar on April 25, 2022 at 1:00 p.m. BST, quantum cybersecurity expert Duncan Jones will discuss how to best protect your organization against threats to encryption before "Q-Day" arrives, including:

• History of the quantum threat to modern-day encryption
• The current 'hack now, decrypt later' strategy of adversaries
• NIST algorithms and quantum-proof key generation
• How to ensure a timely integration of solutions

SECURE Webinar | More NERF, Less HERF: Looking back on 30 years of Information Warfare with Winn Schwartau

May 9, 2022 12:00pm ‐ May 9, 2022 1:30pm

Identification: SW22MAYNAR

It was the early 90's, WIRED magazine had just launched, extolling the techno-anarchism utopia of the emerging internet. While our moderator for this event, Brandon Dunlap, was just a young security engineer, tracing data flows in Visio, Winn Schwartau was busy briefing 3 letter agencies and politicians around the world on the threat of Information Warfare. Brandon had just picked up his book of the same name in 1995 at the Border's in Tysons Corner, VA (likely with the latest issue of WIRED) and it changed his entire outlook on our profession. Despite working in the shadow of the beltway, Brandon was oblivious to the types of conversations Winn was having with the Military Industrial Complex, but the message wasn't lost.

On May 9, 2022 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. ET, we are delighted to invite you into a conversation between Brandon & Winn as we check in on Winn’s dire predictions against the current backdrop of global conflict, social media disinformation and citizen privacy concerns.

SECURE Webinar: Enabling Cybersecurity Resilience with Zero Trust Solutions

May 16, 2022 12:00pm ‐ May 16, 2022 1:30pm

Identification: SW22MAYAPAC

As organizations transform into becoming Cloud-First they have the opportunity to re-engineer their cybersecurity defenses. Firewall technology and web application defenses have proved to be defenseless against attackers and the onset on ransomware. Cloud-native applications and their supporting architectures (e.g., microservices, containers, and orchestration) are requiring more security. Both machine and human user identities must be protected at an even higher level of assurance.

Making Zero Trust a practical reality for organizations today requires not only strategic governance and oversight, but security engineering knowledge and implementation skill. In this presentation we examine the principles of Zero Trust and how they can be applied to defend not only identities, but also data, infrastructure, network components, web-service endpoints, and applications. Building on core principles we show how-to effectively implement Zero Trust in the Cloud for comprehensive security coverage, how-to strengthen the coverage using machine learning, and how identity and access management can be simplified. We provide a workbook where participants can evaluate their own organizations readiness for Zero Trust and conduct a mock vendor selection for Zero-Trust solutions and services.

• Demonstrate a practical understanding of Zero Trust principals and design patterns.
• Have the ability to create an organizational Zero Trust strategy.
• How-to conduct a Zero Trust readiness assessment.
• Have the ability to understand Zero Trust vendor solutions and make selections.

SECURE Webinar | Supply Chain Security: Planes, Trains, Trucks and Ships

Jul 11, 2022 12:00pm ‐ Jul 11, 2022 1:30pm

Identification: sw22julemea

Our supply chains are currently stretched, a result of various factors including markets recovering from the pandemic, labour shortages and hostilities in Ukraine among many. We rely on technology to make our supply chains efficient, yet the security of this technology is often overlooked. We will look at the security of various transport systems, some of which have already been attacked to generate income for nefarious actors.

What can we learn from these issues? What can we take from this and what stones can we turn over in our own organisations? When we engage with supply chains, how can security help our businesses assure the integrity of our supplies?

SECURE Webinar | Win the Cyberwar with Zero Trust

Zero Trust is revolutionizing network security architecture: it is data and device-centric and designed to stop data breaches while protecting critical infrastructure. In this session, John will discuss the concept of Zero Trust and explains why Zero Trust is the world's only true cybersecurity strategy. In 2020, President Biden issued an Executive Order mandating that all US Federal Goverment Agencies move towards adopting Zero Trust.

Zero Trust is both strategically resonant to the highest levels of the business, but also practically and tactically implementable using commercial off-the-shelf technologies. Because Zero Trust focus on providing granular protections around sensitive assets, this architectural model - which designs the network from the inside out - is perfectly positioned to solve the security challenges of modern critical infrastructure and IOT networks. For example, Zero Trust networks protect East-West traffic by default by enforcing micro-perimeters around critical assets or data. Therefore, internal malware propagation is stopped automatically. Zero Trust innovations also add a layer of agility to modern networks that is impossible to achieve in traditional network designs. This means that your network can respond to the speed of business. These 21st century networks have been adopted by large enterprises and government entities around the world. John will explain how a Zero Trust Network Strategy will achieve tactical and operational goals that make security organizations a business enabler, not a business inhibitor.

Key Takeaways

• Zero Trust is the world’s only real cybersecurity strategy
• Zero Trust has Business Value and resonates to the highest levels of your business
• Zero Trust is Implementable Using Commercial Off the Shelf Technology
• Zero Trust is not risky. It augments the existing networks and enables a smooth transition from a legacy network to a Zero Trust network over time
