Security landscape never stands still. We see new kinds of threats from new kinds of attackers all the time. As the enemy changes, we security people need to change as well.

Changing cyber landscapes: The battle of algorithms

Elise Stark-Johansen, Account Manager, Darktrace

Among rapidly evolving technological advancements, the emergence of AI-enhanced malware is making cyber-attacks exponentially more dangerous and harder to identify. In the near future, we will begin to see supercharged, AI-powered cyber-attacks leveraged at scale. To protect against offensive AI attacks, organizations are turning to defensive cyber AI, which can identify and neutralize emerging malicious activity, no matter when, or where, it strikes.

In this session, learn about:
- Paradigm shifts in the cyber landscape
- Advancements in offensive AI attack techniques
- The Immune System Approach to cyber security and defensive, Autonomous Response capabilities
- Real-world examples of emerging threats that were stopped with Cyber AI

Embracing a challenging year to position for future success

Ronald Pool, Cyber Security Specialist, Crowdstrike

While many organisations struggled in the last year, some were actually in the lucky position to thrive during the pandemic. We have especially seen sales & stock prices of companies, who facilitated work from home, reach all-time highs. But in the long run, it is not just those companies, that will profit from the challenges that 2020/21 brought. For quite a number of companies this sped up their digital transformation massively, allowing them to be more agile, have less cost for pysical offices, optimize workflows and ultimately have a competitive edge over other companies, that excpect to go back to 'the old ways'. However, fast digital transformation is not per se a flawless transformation, and some new risks may have been introduced. Risks that could change this competitive edge into a digital nightmare.
In this session we will take a look at some common mistakes that we have seen in this quick shift to work from home, and the implications on an organization's cyber security, when moving to work from home in haste.
