  • We are at the pinnacle of innovation for security. Yet, Security leaders today are stressed with too much to do, too many security tools, too much complexity, too many alerts, and not enough skills. For the most part, we all have access to roughly the same types of technology. The challenge is that the tools providing this technology, don’t talk to each other. The reasons why vary for every person and company – vendors are not incented enough to do so; there are competitive concerns; the APIs or standards sometimes don’t exist, or if they do, don’t work well. There is, however, one direction that the cybersecurity industry is starting to move in together to solve these challenges, and that direction is "open". Hear how a number of leading vendors are coming together with the intent of creating an open source platform to allow security solutions to communicate over a standard fabric during the entire threat management life cycle, from threat hunting, analytics and detection through to incident response and orchestration.

  • Experts predict that the cyber theft of private and confidential information from government agencies, business, and private individuals will reach $6 trillion annually by 2021. The modern spy is responsible for these sophisticated, brilliant, devious, and technologically advanced attacks targeting your data. Robert Hanssen was the first of these new cyber spies, charged with selling American secrets to Russia for more than US$1.4 million in cash and diamonds. His ability to exploit computer systems allowed him to protect his identity during a 22-year spy career. In this exciting and informative talk, Eric O’Neill uses real-life spy stories and a review of recent massive cyber-attacks to show how careful diligence, counter-espionage techniques, and restraint in social media can help identify the numerous spies, hackers, cyber criminals and trusted insiders that threaten every stroke of your keyboard.

  • ● A look into the blurred lines of Nation State and Cybercrime actors and how the Insurance industry is fuelling a massive growth in this attack vector.

    ● The latest threat intel & analysis of ransomware campaigns and how this can be used to shape your cybersecurity strategy

    ● Stories from recent Incident Response (IR) engagements doing eradication of Ransomware including payment negotiations & IR strategies and limitations of EDR

    ● How to block the most advanced attacks before they can become a breach or even an incident.
