The Future Pitfalls of Security Today – More Data, Less Information, More Noise, Less Signal

Presented at the Making Security a Top Priority.

Session date:October 2, 2019
Session time:10:05 AM – 10:55 AM

Today's Cybersecurity market is awash in data about threats, vulnerabilities, exploits, vectors, intelligence feeds, et cetera. All this noise conspires against our brains to force emotional, rather than logical, reasoned, and defensible decisions. New technologies and fancy terms such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Predictive Analytics, Algorithms, and Data Science all promise to revolutionize Cybersecurity. But will they live up to the hype or just distract us from our task of reducing risk and the assurance of the digital assets under our care? Learn what these terms really mean, the common thread amongst these technologies, what the benefits and pitfalls are, and how to leverage them judiciously in your organization. These tools can be very powerful but are largely misunderstood. A fact that is increasingly leveraged by security vendors to further their ends rather than your organization's objectives. The primary objective is to arm the audience with the tools to determine what is signal and what is noise in everything from vendor pitches to risk information.

Another great event that's part of our ongoing International Summit series.
