360 Viewpoint & Lesson Sharing Panel Discussion: A Review of 2020: What were the biggest attacks, changes in cybersecurity, how did we deal with them and how does it prepare us for the future?
Having security protocols, policies, and procedures in place that worked before the pandemic do not mean that those same controls will serve the ever-changing “new normal.” As companies are reopening and personnel and resources are coming back to the office, CISOs are once again challenged to make decisions fueled by corporate pressures.
- How have attacks changed with a remote workforce? How will this continue to change in the ‘new normal’ hybrid working environment?
- Is the new hybrid remote and office working environment the biggest cyber security risk to face CISOs and IT security professionals?
- How have you hardened your colleague’s home environment? Can your SOC reach it? Will this now need to be included in the process of onboarding new hires?
- The Lockdown Rush to Cloud migration: was it worth it and what do you do now to continue to secure your network and cloud?
Presentation: Security Leadership in the time of COVD-19
COVID-19 has massively accelerated the adoption of cloud and new ways of working outside our traditional offices. CISOs are facing the biggest leadership test of their careers right now as we must push to be the trailblazers within the company and not the laggards chasing or even hindering progress. How do we know we’re doing this right? How do we know we’re measuring the right things? Delivering on the right priorities? The world has changed. Remote working in the age of COVID has changed the threat landscape and security culture and behaviours are changing with it.
