Visibility: Learn Your Environment Before the Adversaries Do

5:30 – 8:00pm EDT | Charlotte, NC

Event Overview

As companies have gone through a digital transformation, increased adoption of cloud and Internet of Things, a growing remote workforce and a technology talent shortage have led to an exponential rise in organizations’ attack surface. This expansion makes it harder for security teams to correlate externally visible and internally managed assets and govern compromises that occur because of undiscovered, unmanaged, or poorly managed IT assets.

These unknown assets, combined with thousands of vulnerabilities that are often patched months and months after their release, allow adversaries to have an advantage, so long as the time to remediate these assets exceeds 21 days, hardware/software refreshes lag, and risky misconfigurations are tolerated.

How does one understand all assets external and internal? How does one adopt a risk-based approach to prioritizing remediation efforts?

Welcome to this executive roundtable, “Visibility: Learn Your Environment Before the Adversaries Do,” where you will gain new insights from event thought leaders.

DISCUSSION POINTS

  • How attackers view your modern-day IT environment;
  • The risks of unknown assets;
  • Taking a risk-based approach to prioritizing remediation efforts.
