Legacy SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) technology promised to revolutionize the practice of security operations. Unfortunately, the first generation of these platforms have gained a reputation for rigid playbooks that require extensive development resources, poor case management features, and limited use cases. That’s why Swimlane developed a more modern and extensible approach to security automation.

Use of the cloud is continuously growing, not surprisingly so due to its perceived lower costs, greater agility, and ability to increase computing power with increased demand & continuously deploy new applications and software features.
Despite the appeal of cloud, there are many security risks and vulnerabilities and managing these risks has proven to be a big challenge as cyber criminals shift their tactics to cloud data and systems in responses to this increased use of the cloud. According to a CRA Business Intelligence’s September 2022 Cloud Security Survey, misconfigurations, lack of oversight, and little visibility across the organization are among their chief concerns regarding cloud deployments.
If organizations are going to successfully adopt/transition to the cloud, they must ensure security is part of their program. An effective cloud security program includes various process and technology capabilities to effectively keep up with the current threat landscape and vulnerabilities.
11:20-11:45 EDT
Security leaders face intense budget scrutiny during normal business cycles, and that intensity is only magnified during periods of economic uncertainty. How can cyber security leaders navigate budget and investment decisions during economic headwinds while still responsibly managing cyber risk? Will recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLM) be our saving grace or harm our efforts?
11:45-12:10 EDT

1:10-1:55 EDT
Despite having distinct differences, data privacy and compliance are deeply intertwined with cyber security. As focus on data privacy and compliance increases, business leaders can expect to see vast changes related to how consumer data is managed, shared, and secured. Policy & laws on data privacy and compliance continue to expand and become increasingly stringent, so it is important for companies and their respective business leaders to consider these areas as they develop & evaluate their cyber security strategies. For instance, last year the SEC proposed amendments to its rules on cyber security, risk management, strategy, governance, and incident disclosure by public companies.
At a more granular level, there are various initiatives to protect specific consumer data and ensure enterprises are compliant in doing so – particularly health data and children’s personal information. The American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA) if passed could greatly impact health data beyond the scope of HIPAA by establishing a national framework to protect & preserve the privacy of consumer data collected by entities not covered by HIPAA. In an American Medical Association survey, about 75% of surveyed patients expressed concern and confusion related to the privacy of their health data and how it is handled. The ADPPA could help clear up some of this confusion by establishing clear expectations. Another critical area is the collection of personal information of children. The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) helps put parents in control of how their children’s data is handled and ensures that all entities in possession of this data sustain its confidentiality, security, and integrity.
Maintaining strong data privacy and compliance practices is imperative in preventing sensitive personal data from becoming compromised. This information is extremely valuable to cyber criminals, who seek to utilize compromised data to steal others’ identities or resell such PII.
This panel will look at the latest data privacy policies and implications for what this means for business leaders in the future. Our lineup of experts will lend their insights and offer best practices relating to privacy, compliance, and identity protection.
1:55-2:20 EDT
You wouldn’t play poker blind, so why search for cyberthreats without analytics? Searching data lakes for cybersecurity threats or vulnerable assets without using scaled analytics is like playing a round of poker while blindfolded!

2:45-3:10 EDT
As a protective strategy, Compliance establishes a floor of capabilities that clearly satisfies threats from regulators and auditors, not adversaries. Thankfully, oIt is hard to find an industry untouched by the transformative power of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Cybersecurity is no exception to this trend. While early AI adopters have enjoyed material advantages, will those advantages regress to mere competitive parity as operationalized AI becomes table stakes for modern cyber? For some organizations the answer will almost certainly be yes, but it doesn’t have to be!
Join Tim Wade, Vectra AI Deputy CTO, in a presentation aimed at strategic leaders with a vested interest in establishing, achieving, maintaining, or extending their strategic cyber advantages through AI. This presentation will underscore the principles and process at the center of this challenge, placed in the context of organizational resources, risks, and above all, mission.

“Pay Up, or Else”. The number of organizations who have been faced with this scenario has been steadily increasing over the past several years as ransomware attacks continue to rise — both in numbers and the size of payouts.
The clear and present danger of a ransomware attack looms large among cyber executives and business leaders as the number of vulnerabilities increases daily. According to a 2022 CRA Business Intelligence survey, nearly one in four respondents reported that their organization experienced one or more ransomware attacks in the past 12 months, and almost one out of three of these organizations said the attacker succeeded in gaining access to their systems, encrypting files, and demanding a ransom
According to this survey, many believe that the worst is yet to come and that they are at a significantly higher risk of a cyberattack than ever before – it’s not a matter of “if,” but “when.”
Preparing for the inevitable and defending against the threat of a ransomware attack requires constant evaluation and assessment, and then making the necessary adjustments.
On this panel, our lineup of industry experts will discuss the key security measures enterprises must take, going beyond backup and recovery and anti-malware/anti-virus solutions to include endpoint security, vulnerability management, Active Directory monitoring, credential protection, DNS security tools, SIEM, DLP and encryption, and cloud security software.

Red teaming and tabletop incident response exercises are both established tools for organizations to test their cybersecurity capabilities. Red teaming, which simulates real-world attack scenarios, helps organizations test their detection and prevention mechanisms, while tabletop exercises facilitate the review and development of incident response processes and procedures. Individually, each method is a powerful way of maturing an organization’s cyber resilience.
However, combining red teaming and tabletop exercises, instead of treating them as stand-alone activities, offers benefits greater than the sum of its parts. A red team engagement only tests the organization’s technical controls, not the processes and procedures that guide the incident response team. Meanwhile, a tabletop exercise assesses the incident response plan, but assumes that the appropriate tooling is in place to help detect and contain the incident. Without both the technical controls and the security governance, an organization’s incident response strategy is incomplete. Learn how to best combine red team and tabletop exercises to ensure your team is properly equipped to protect your organization.
4:35-5:00 EDT
