Topic:  The Crucial Role of Asset Management in the Face of Cyberwarfare

As cyberwarfare gains momentum as a low-cost, asymmetric threat, its borderless nature sets it apart from traditional warfare. This shift significantly impacts business operations, government policy and, most notably, the security of our critical infrastructure. In this presentation, Armis will explore the escalating threat of cyberwarfare and will emphasize the pivotal importance of Cybersecurity Asset Management (CAM) in fortifying the attack surface management within critical infrastructure against these relentless threats.

Drawing from extensive threat intelligence and global research, real-world examples of how CAM is the cornerstone in safeguarding essential systems will be discussed and how the strategic approaches of CAM, including continuous monitoring, asset inventory, vulnerability assessment, and risk prioritization can be utilized. Additionally, we'll highlight the imperative collaboration between IT, OT and security teams in ensuring the robust defense of critical infrastructure.

Topic:  Trust No Files - Zero Trust Content Security

For decades, we have relied on predictive analytics to detect and block malicious files. But predicting threats based on historical data is imperfect. Even 99% accuracy guarantees 100% chance of attack. Our Partner - Votiro is here to share how they can ensure your organisation to be fully protected as we can’t just improve our predictions or threat detection. We need an entirely new approach – Votiro’s Positive Selection singles out only the safe elements of each file, ensuring every file that enters your organization is 100% safe.

Join us in this invited-only session to learn how Votiro helps organisation to strengthen their security posture against fileborne attacks and prevent unknown exploits and zero-day malware from affecting daily operations.

Topic: Time To Choose – From Conventional CTI to Next Generation Intelligence

The landscape of cyber threats is constantly evolving, and it is imperative for us to stay ahead of the curve.

Topic:  Building a Healthy Security Culture: Safeguarding Organisations Against Cyber Threats

In today's digital landscape, cybersecurity has become a top priority for organisations worldwide. However, simply investing in cutting-edge technology and implementing security measures alone no longer guarantees protection against cyber threats.

A healthy cybersecurity culture keeps cybersecurity at the forefront of an employee's mind - a mindset where security is ingrained in every employee's daily routine, integrated into their work life rather than an afterthought discarded after a training session concludes.
