Dell EMC: Mission Driven Security

Peter Steyaert, Advisory Systems Engineer, RSA, A Dell Technologies Business

True understanding of what is going on in the network from identity and access management to full network visibility is needed to understand how best to secure your network and what risk each mission is willing to accept. Superiors need to understand full mission context and the risk that each mission has in order to make an educated decision what is acceptable level of risk for each system. RSA a Dell Technologies company will cover items from alternative two factor authentication technologies to understanding full network visibility from the endpoint to logs, netflow, and packet capture. This approach along with a solution that provides mission context to the analyst allows the appropriate parties to prioritize and make a decision on what security incidents are significant to the mission.

Insecurity in Information Technology

Tanya Janca, Senior Cloud Advocate, Microsoft

A lot is expected of software developers these days; they are expected to be experts in everything despite very little training. Throw in the IT security team (often with little-to-no knowledge of how to build software) telling developers what to do and how to do it, and the situation becomes strained. This silo-filled, tension-laced situation, coupled with short deadlines and pressure from management, often leads to stress, anxiety and less-than-ideal reactions from developers and security people alike.

This talk will explain how job insecurities can be brought out by IT leadership decisions, and how this can lead to real-life vulnerabilities in software. This is not a talk about “feelings”, this is a talk about creating programs, governance and policies that ensure security throughout the entire SDLC.

No more laying blame and pointing fingers, it’s time to put our egos aside and focus on building high-quality software that is secure. The cause and effect of insecurities and other behavioral influencers, as well as several detailed and specific solutions will be presented that can be implemented at your own place of work, immediately. No more ambiguity or uncertainty from now on, only crystal-clear expectations.

Blockchain Applications - Trendy or Transformative

Thomas Glucksmann, Head of APAC Business Development at Gatecoin

Blockchain has been heavily touted as a revolutionary technology that sets to disrupt multiple industries. However, only a few working applications using this technology exist today and their current impact is limited to a small community of believers and corporate experiments. In the future, once these applications are able to scale, their effect may be transformative, but that won't stop the sceptics and evangelists from exchanging their views in the meantime.

We discuss the diverging opinions and try to form a more realistic portrayal of blockchain's impact on our society today and tomorrow.

Cross Border Legal Issues Relating to Data Breach – The Transformation Needed for Corporations

Scott Warren, Partner, Squire Patton Boggs

Few scenarios test your company’s ability to navigate numerous and concurrent critical issues more than a data breach. Increasingly, cross-border data privacy and cybersecurity laws apply, requiring notification to the individuals, and often governments, both locally and abroad. These laws can impose high penalties for failing to meet them. Effective handling of data breach situations involve working across multiple disparate corporate silos, with IT and Legal Departments seeming to speak different languages. Often, data breach issues are dealt with under immense time and public image pressures. This pressure is further increased as Japan comes under the global spotlight given the approaching 2020 Olympics. In the meantime, should you desire to involve law enforcement, identifying which one is willing to assist can be hard. What to do?

This session will discuss these challenges, highlighting some of the new laws impacting the issue, and what you can do to transform your company to comply.
