The threat of cybersecurity breaches has never been greater, and despite our best efforts, we are losing the battle and will continue to in the future unless we make critical and fundamental shifts to our paradigm. Cybersecurity leaders agree that the field has become one in which we find ourselves in a constant reactive loop, where we’re putting out fires without truly identifying underlying problems. Without addressing the problems, how can we even begin to address the solutions?
In this keynote, Tyler will share her insights into why we are losing the battle with cybersecurity and what we can do to turn the tide. She'll first explore the biggest threats facing organizations of all sizes, including ransomware attacks, phishing scams, third-party exposure, cloud vulnerabilities, and social engineering. While also exploring how the unique challenges of remote work, connected devices, implants, and AI (deepfake) affect the global cybersecurity landscape.
Then through analogies and case studies, Tyler will demonstrate how by employing a new model and paradigm we can begin to truly solve the cybersecurity and workforce problems we face today along with be better prepared on the threat horizon of tomorrow.
Today's top threats include: Social Engineering (Phishing, Whaling, Baiting, Diversion Theft, Business Email Compromise (BEC), Smishing, Quid Pro Quo, Pretexting, Honeytrap, Tailgating/Piggybacking, etc.), Third-Party Exposure, Configuration Mistakes, Code Injection Attacks, Poor Cyber Hygiene, Cloud Vulnerabilities, Mobile Device Vulnerabilities, Internet of Things, Ransomware, Malware, Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks, DNS Tunneling, Poor Data Management, Inadequate Post-Attack Procedures
