Does Mobile Security Remain a 'Glaring Gap' in the Enterprise?
For many, including government agencies and educational institutions, mobile devices present many threats to their organization's security posture. And troubling cyber incidents throughout 2021 - including high-profile ransomware attacks and new developments on government-grade surveillance programs - have left practitioners scrambling to boost their cyber resilience.
In many cases, an attack vector could be a compromised mobile device that leaks privileged credentials with cascading effects across the entire network. One way to plug these security gaps is to extend visibility from endpoints to the organization's cloud environments, with dependable agents that can, in a compliant manner, detect malicious activity, including zero-days, before incidents worsen.
Join ISMG's Dan Gunderman for a moderated discussion that will draw from attendee experiences, offering critical insights into frequent mobile device concerns (OS, app stores, etc.), overall risk management, and ransomware preparedness.
Discussion topics will includes:
- How much do endpoints factor into your overall risk management strategy - including around ransomware?
- Do you consider mobile devices the network's "weakest link"?
- Do revelations around NSO Group's alleged spyware programs give you pause? And what can be done to shore up mobile devices?
- What are your endpoint security plans for 2022? And do they include outside funding (for instance, CISA grants)?
- What strategies are required to maintain an effective cybersecurity posture in today's environment?
Joining Dan to provide expert insight and case studies is Chris Rowlands, SLED West Director for Lookout.
