Let’s be honest: people can frustrate us. They don’t always do the things we’d like, and they often do some things we’d rather they didn’t. New research from the National Cybersecurity Alliance reveals insights about the public’s attitudes and beliefs about security. We’ll explore the 2022 Oh Behave! Cybersecurity Attitudes and Behaviors Report and some of the findings may surprise you! We’ll also give you practical, actionable advice on how you can better communicate to influence the behavior change you want to see.

Estonia is a small country in the Baltics; however, it has been at the forefront of technology for many years. This session traces Estonia’s journey from independence in 1991 to its current use of digital identities for the systems that allow citizens to vote, check online banking, e-residency, and tax returns. I’ll share lessons learned and key takeaways from incidents that happened along the way, examine what the future holds, and discuss the impact of incorporating AI into a digital society.

A deep-rooted cyber security culture is crucial, and it goes as far back as the hiring process… 10 years ago, a typical hiring process consisted of working your way through a checklist, hiring individuals based solely on a CV. Today, the ‘Simon Sinek’ culture is gaining more prevalence, with employers realizing that hiring the right person, rather than the CV, can have immeasurable benefits for business. Ryan will talk about why this is particularly true within the cyber security sphere, and why business leaders should follow this particular ‘Simon Sinek’ strategy to build a successful security operation, and secure business, starting directly with the human’s that run it. At Stripe OLT, Ryan’s Security Operations team has been built upon diverse collective experiences, from military personnel and laborer’s to teachers and university graduates. Through focusing on direct experiences and personal encounters, this presentation will place emphasis on the importance of a CIA Triad hiring structure and demonstrate how fostering a culture of internal trust is integral in defending against cyber-threats and protecting all businesses. You will walk away from this session knowing why it is important to employ the right individual rather than the CV, and how adopting this approach can drastically improve how a business responds to and manages security threats, company wide.

Don’t leave the door open. Modern systems are complex and require you to consider many aspects. Here are some aspects we consider critical: - APIs are the dominant software development direction/trend. Traditional/legacy ways to grant access is not fit for purpose of protecting this new way of delivering products and services. - Customers are demanding better digital experiences. To maintain a competitive edge and drive brand loyalty businesses need to provide great online experiences. - Standards (such as OAuth and OpenID Connect) are important to ensure high-security levels. Also enables scalability and helps future-proof your infrastructure. For example in the financial sector, these standards play a key role in the drive toward open banking. - A modern architecture is a zero trust architecture. In a zero trust architecture, the new perimeter hinges on identity.

Gartner recently reported that the RPA software market will reach $2.9 billion by the end of 2022, up 19.5% from 2021. But, despite Airlines adopting it to help with cancellations and retail for inventory management, we’re not talking about the security risk this tech will cause. Alan Radford, Global IAM Strategist at One Identity discusses the truly devastating impact that can occur when an organization leaves its RPA program vulnerable and without any identity and access protection, why realizing that machines have identities too could save us from dangerous RPA breaches in the future, and steps companies can take to secure their RPA technology as more companies continue to implement it.

The cloud and SaaS were supposed to make things easier, simpler, more scalable. Arguably, they _have_ done all those things, but traditional, legacy networks linger. Migrations are messy and take time. Nearly everything is encrypted in transit by default. Today, we interview Marty Roesch, the creator of Snort and founder of SourceFire, to discuss how things have changed and what defenders can do to catch up and restore some order to the madness. We'll step through some history along the way - listeners might be surprised at how much our current situation mirrors the reasons behind why Marty created Snort in the first place.
