Getting past the hype of AI and ChatGPT, there are huge benefits to practical (and less sexy) applications of AI. And despite all the buzzwords and overpromises coming from our industry today, there actually are real and meaningful ways AI tools will help security professionals make better risk decisions, faster and more accurately. In this talk, we’ll show some examples of how AI can help predict risk, cut through complexity when making risk decisions and even help to retain senior staff while keeping them focused on the tasks that matter most.

In today’s digital age, the threat of cyber attacks looms large, with hackers constantly devising new methods to breach networks and compromise sensitive data. This talk delves into the intricate world of hacking, shedding light on the techniques employed by cyber intruders to infiltrate networks and exploit vulnerabilities within company defenses. From phishing scams to sophisticated malware, we’ll explore the diverse arsenal at hackers’ disposal and examine the critical points of weakness that leave organizations susceptible to attack. By understanding the modus operandi of hackers and pinpointing areas of vulnerability, companies can fortify their defenses and safeguard against potential threats in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity.

What are the biggest threats to your business? What’s changing in the current threat landscape that you need to know about? Is ransomware still the biggest threat or is AI taking the spotlight?

On this panel our lineup of industry experts will discuss the most dangerous and emerging threats to your organization as well as the solutions that go beyond anti-malware/anti-virus to include endpoint security, vulnerability management, Active Directory monitoring, credential protection, DNS security tools, SIEM, DLP and encryption.

In this presentation, we will delve into the fascinating world of artificial intelligence (AI). Join me as we explore AI, examine its historical development, and current applications, and discuss the potential impact and ethical considerations of AI in the future.

Artificial intelligence has come a long way since its early beginnings. From the first AI programs in the 1950s to the development of expert systems in the 1980s, we will explore the breakthroughs that have shaped the field of AI. Discover how these advancements laid the foundation for the sophisticated AI technologies we use today. Hear how Check Point is, and has been, leveraging AI and the new tools we are developing to fight fire with fire.

AI technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision are constantly evolving. Learn about where to find the latest breakthroughs in AI research and development, including deep learning algorithms, neural networks, and robotics. These cutting-edge innovations in AI are changing the way we live and work.

The history of AI, the current state of the technology, and the potential future impact are all evidence of the incredible journey we are on. Join me for this fun, informative presentation.

Cloud computing solves many problems like flexibility, cost-efficiency & scalability, so it’s no surprise that use of the cloud is consistently growing. 

That said, it also means organizations step into unknown areas where gaps are easy to miss and hackers are quick to exploit. 

Today we will discuss all things cloud so you know what works best for your organization.

Our experts will look at hybrid and multi-cloud environments, adopting the concept of cybersecurity mesh & Zero Trust, the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) framework, cloud-native tools & platforms, as well as why the future of network security is in the Cloud. 

Security is hard; but bad things happen to good data. Backup professionals used to prepare for fire flood and blood types of problems; Security professions plan for different types of disasters. Data Recovery is a key part of a backup strategy and it doesn’t have to be at odds with security teams. You don’t want backup to be a backdoor or sore spot in your security strategy. Ransomware, disasters and more all predicate a need for both: Strong IT Security and Strong Data Protection. Backup expert Rick Vanover will bridge the gap for security professionals and cover his latest advice on the following topics:

• Storage security strategies for backups
• Backup resiliency for ransomware strategies
• Identifying backdoors from data protection solutions
• Implementing controls for each step of the data protection process
• Showcasing new cloud lifecycle tools to help the backup and archive process be secured

Join Alex Rose, Secureworks Director of Government partnerships and former NSA leader, as she unveils the blueprint for future-proofing cybersecurity in the face of relentless, opportunistic threat actors. In this keynote, we’ll explore the imperative for organizations to adapt, collaborate, and fortify their tech strategy against the ever-changing threat landscape.  In this session, Alex with share her deep expertise derived from extensive experience leading and advising some of the top government agencies on cybersecurity strategy. You won’t want to miss the opportunity hear how Alex bridges technical expertise with practical applications, recognizing that threat actors aren’t solely targeting specific industries but are strategically exploiting vulnerabilities in diverse technologies. Gain invaluable insights to empower your cybersecurity approach, ensuring resilience in a landscape where adaptability is not just an option but a necessity.
