CONFERENCE AGENDA

8:00am – 9:00am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

9:00am – 10:00am: Cloud Watch Points – Security Stumbling Blocks to Watch Out For

10:00am – 10:30am: Refreshment & Exhibit Break

10:30am – 11:30am: Everything-as-a-Service Supply Chain: The Path of Least Resistance

 

Alex Flores, Sr. Solutions Engineer, Astrix Security

 

Identity is the new perimeter. But are all identities accounted for? Biometric MFA. Passwordless. Contextual based access policies. These are just some of the emerging controls that are becoming standard for end-user access. But when it comes to non-user, non-human identities (service accounts, API Keys, etc.), security teams are left with no visibility or governance. It is clear from recent breaches – attackers are taking notice.

 

This session will focus on the non-human identity side of the house and cover:

  • What exactly a non-human identity is
  • How these identities evolved from an IT problem to a business problem
  • How attackers are taking advantage of this ungoverned access
  • How security experts can accommodate for this emerging attack path

11:30am – 12:30pm:  Cloud IT Blind Spots – Overlooked Architecture for Cloud Security and Resilience

 

Prakash Sinha, Sr. Director & Technology Evangelist, Application Security & Delivery, Radware

 

Securing distributed applications can be quite a challenge, especially in multi-cloud setup, where the lack of expertise leads to uncertainty about application security. Differences in environments and tools only add to the complexity. While traditional security measures are still necessary, addressing the impact of outages and shoring up network and infrastructure security and resilience can now be tackled with modern approaches such as zero trust for access, utilizing identity as a perimeter, implementing resilience in servicing user connections implementing security services at network edges.

 

This session will explore the business challenges and issues related to security and resilience through various solutions. It will provide an analysis and architecture for incorporating different schemes, techniques and protocols for cloud computing, with a focus on hybrid IaaS and PaaS systems and how to achieve security and resilience for successful adoption.
