On Wednesday, June 15 from 3:15 PM to 4:00 PM, join Bob Flores, Executive Partner of Cognitio, and Junaid Islam, CTO of Vidder, Inc, for their session on How to Stop Catastrophic Cyber Failure in Your Organization. The session is presented by Vidder, Inc.
OVERVIEW
Catastrophic cyber failure occurs when a single vulnerability leads to the breach of an entire organization. These failures are seen in organizations with large security teams, multi-million dollar budgets and well defined processes: even organizations implementing a “by the book” security strategy cannot escape this fate. But, you can stop catastrophic cyber failures. Join CIOs, CISOs and leading security experts to discuss how a threat-based approach combined with zero-trust architecture can make a difference.
