Creating a Strategic Penetration Testing Program
Traditional, check-the-box penetration testing is a thing of the past. Modern penetration testing must be strategic and human delivered. So, how can you make this shift? In this session, Sam Horvath, Technical Client Director at NetSPI, the Minneapolis-based leader in offensive security, will explore the two core pillars of successful pentesting program, share real examples of pentesting program transformations, and detail the steps organizations can take to get there.

The Security Equals Compliance Disconnect
Security will never be perfect; there will always be a residual risk that must be managed and controlled. Compliance does equal security, at least as best as your preferred standard or framework defines it.
Keep hiding behind “compliance does not equal security,” and you will forever be living off of your “luck” until it runs out – usually sooner rather than later.
Use the tools at your disposal correctly, stay current on threats, monitor your security posture, and live a long, prosperous, secure life.

What if the browser was designed for the enterprise?
The application enterprises use the most is the browser. In fact, it has become our primary work environment, but the browser is not an enterprise application. So we have surrounded it with an endless, complex and expensive stack that overwhelms your security teams and interrupts end users. But what if the browser was designed for the enterprise? What could that do for security, productivity and work itself?
Discover how an enterprise browser can:
• Protect critical SaaS and web applications
• Streamline and secure third-party contractor access and BYOD strategies
• Free you from the cost and poor user experience of VDI and DaaS solutions
• Give you the last mile control you have been seeking
• Deliver it in a familiar, Chromium-based application that is simple for users to access and operate

Back to the Basics
In 2022 we are still seeing compromises as a result of not fully implementing basic security hygiene in organizations and not enforcing and enterprising logging and monitoring. This includes oversight of third parties and third party/open source APIs and software. We know that threat actors are becoming more creative in their attack vectors and methods, ensuring the basic / industry standard practices are implemented and knowing the key areas to monitor for cyber resilience and early warning signs of threat actor reconnaissance and compromise.

The hybrid workforce is no longer a concept, it is a reality. But as employees embrace new working environments, this hybrid approach poses a unique challenge for security leaders. During this discussion, we explore how organizations will need to create a security strategy rooted in the variability of the hybrid workforce — one that meets employees where they are and helps them learn the role they play in securing this new model.

Ransomware as a service (RaaS) has made extortion more critical than ever. If ransomware actors can’t extort ransom payment from victims in “traditional” means, they have to focus on new ways of blackmailing. This doesn’t just mean stealing files and posting them on an extortion site — instead, ransomware actors have created a whole new extortion ecosystem. While the success of RaaS mimics the success of ransomware, a lot of the success of the RaaS model has to do with extortion. The reality is, the creation of the extortion ecosystem has created a symbiotic relationship between RaaS operators, the dark web forums they advertise on, security press, and security researchers.
In this session, Dmitry Smilyanets, expert threat intelligence analyst, and Allan Liska, expert ransomware researcher from the intelligence company Recorded Future share insight into how the growth of RaaS offerings has helped accelerate ransomware attacks, and what it means for your organization.
Topics covered include:

Achieving a baseline configuration that detects attacker activity is one of the most effective defenses against cyber-attacks and data breaches. In fact, according to industry reports in healthcare and payment cards, ineffective logging, monitoring and the inability to correlate event logs to tell a story within and across platforms is the primary reason such attacks are successful.
As a result, statutory and regulatory compliance have strengthened the need for logging, monitoring and retention of event logs. However, many organizations are complying with only minimum requirements, have not implemented their systems effectively, and do not appreciate the enterprise value of systems designed to collect and correlate event logs.
During this hour-long discussion, Mary Frantz – primary technical cyber expert in the Equifax, Yahoo and many other high-profile breaches – provides a product-agnostic look at the capabilities of enterprise SIEMs, what to look for, how to implement and use them effectively, and how they can benefit the entire organization – not just security.
TUES, MAY 25 — 1000 CST / 1600 BST
Cyber threats arise from numerous sources, including state actors, terrorist groups, criminals, hackers, business competitors, and even trusted insiders. In fact, it’s the threat from trusted insiders that may pose the most significant threats. Whether as a malicious act —the deliberate exfiltration of information or introduction of malware or other harmful code —or inadvertent actions by careless employees, the greatest threat to an organization’s information system is often on the inside. On May 25, NCSC Insider Threat Directorate (ITD) will participate in a CyberWeek webinar to discuss the role of insider threat mitigation in cybersecurity. During this hour-long event, we’ll discuss the current risk environment, including heightened vulnerabilities created by the Global Pandemic; identify potential threats posed by trusted insiders and the adversaries who seek to co-opt or exploit them; and share best practices and resources available to mitigate the risk.

Once considered an esoteric domain of cybersecurity, Covid-19 has brought supply chain security to the dinner table conversation. The shortages revealed during the pandemic make it clear: Action must be taken to protect and safeguard us.
As “National Supply Chain Integrity Month” continues, join us on April 27 as Joyce Corell of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center delineates the threat landscape and discusses provoking implications for future supply chain integrity with Sean Costigan of the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies. The conversation will cover the current policy landscape, which includes actions from all branches of government, as well as how thinking on risk has evolved over the past several years. Joyce will touch on the notion of shared risk and how to think through responsibilities for government, the private sector and the consumer. This hour-long discussion will help tee up a national conversation on supply chain security as NCSC, DoD, DHS and the Cyber Security Summit raise awareness throughout the year.
