Keynote – 2021 Lessons Learned & 2022 Sneak Peek

In cybersecurity, people are an organization’s last and most important line of defense. 2021 brought unexpected challenges to organizations such as ransomware, email fraud, and cloud account takeover. Organizations need to better prepare against these threats as we move into the new year. So how can you better protect your com

Session 2 – Information Protection is More Important Now Than Ever

Data breaches and leaks can be extremely costly, hurting both your company’s bottom line as well as reputation. Unfortunately, we continue to see more and more attacks. Modern enterprises must address these data security challenges with solutions that guard against employee negligence, stop data breaches and help you remain compliant with data privacy laws.

    • Data security challenges of today and what to expect tomorrow
    • How people-centric information protection can give you a protective edge
    • The imperative to modernize DLP today


 

Panel Discussion – Run an Impactful Security Awareness Program

Human error and social engineering continue to be the primary reasons behind data breaches and financial losses to cyber crimes Gartner suggests that security awareness be more than phishing simulation and computer-based training. So how do you run a security awareness program that goes beyond check-box training and phishing simulation? What are the key elements to conducting a program that drives actual security outcomes?.

Join this 45-minute session and hear from our customer panelists and subject matter experts from Costco and Eli Lilly. You’ll learn about:

    • The challenges of running an impactful security awareness program
    • How to keep users engaged and drive user behavior change
    • How to measure and communicate program success
    • Featured Customer Case Studies from: Costco & Eli Lilly
