The State of Cloud-Native Security 2024

Understanding your cloud security posture does not necessarily mean understanding your data posture. Organizations adopting a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) to protect cloud-native applications are at risk of leaving data assets exposed. One such risk is shadow data resulting from dynamic changes to data pipelines and services across cloud service providers (CSPs) creating hidden repositories where the data is unknown, undiscovered, or unidentified. Due to the complexity of securing multicloud environments, this can pose significant security gaps leaving cloud teams in the lurch.

In this session, Terry Ray, SVP and Imperva Fellow, and Krishna Ksheerabdhi, VP of Product Marketing, Thales Data Security will discuss how organizations are overcoming these blind spots by effectively leveraging in-depth observability, meaningful analytics, and solid data protection practices to reduce data risk from information that drives business growth.

Join to learn:
• How the rapid growth of cloud-native applications is creating shadow data 
• Why CNAPP falls short for data security, posture, and sensitive data management 
• What challenges do organizations face in gaining complete visibility and control across on-premises and multicloud platforms
• How organizations are leveraging a data-centric approach to protect data at scale

Reining in Shadow Data: Move Beyond CNAPP

In today's generative AI landscape, traditional security techniques fall short in protecting modern AI applications. Cybersecurity teams need to understand the OWASP Top 10 threats specific to LLMs to effectively mitigate AI and data risks. While LLM Firewalls play a crucial role in protection, they are not sufficient on their own to address these threats. The rapid adoption of generative AI, coupled with the rise of shadow AI, use of sensitive data, unknown vulnerabilities, and emerging threats, presents significant security, privacy, and compliance risks.

Join our in-depth webinar to explore the top 5 AI security steps recommended to bolster your GenAI defenses. We will cover:

Top 5 Steps to Mitigate OWASP Top 10 Threats

The data security dilemma needs to be addressed. Despite a ballooning cybersecurity spend of over $183 billion dollars in 2023, breaches increased by a staggering 78% in the same year. Threat actors increasingly take advantage of the misalignment between security and usability that companies are trying to balance with their data. Legacy solutions using access control and dynamic masking have not kept up with the advancements of our data and AI workloads. Finding a balance between data consumption and security risk is possible, and can deliver significant value. 

Join this webinar to hear about:
• Understand the interplay between data risk and consumption to deliver business value and improve your data security posture.
• Re-examine the role access control and dynamic masking solutions play in your data security strategy.
• Uncover new areas of opportunity to apply a risk-based consumption model into your organization.
Translate a zero-trust data segmentation model into business value and achievable dollar savings.
• Drastically reduce your data’s attack surface, risk of breach, double extortion, third party supply chain, and cloud & AI workload exposure.

A Data Security Dilemma: The Misperception of Data Protection in Cybersecurity

In ephemeral cloud environments, organizations often struggle to keep track of all their cloud resources, especially in expanding hybrid and multi-cloud environments with dozens or hundreds of users deploying applications into production.

Proper implementation and enforcement of tagging rules for cloud resources can help users keep track of their running workloads while ensuring consistent application of security policies.

However, as much as resource tagging can help organizations, the implications of an inconsistent tagging strategy are far-reaching. Risks include difficulties identifying resource owners, inflated costs due to unidentified and unused/zombie resources, and potential vulnerabilities within stale, unpatched workloads.

Join this session to understand why tagging is a critical component of cloud security and how adopting Policy-as-Code and automation can help mitigate issues caused by inconsistent tagging. Presenters will dive into the best practices for building a tagging strategy and how you can implement them using a cloud-native application protection (CNAPP) tool.

Tagging Strategies for Cloud Security Success

Enterprises are accelerating cloud migrations, building business resilience, and enabling hybrid work by adopting zero trust (ZT) architectures. According to the “Security Outcomes for Zero Trust” report by Cisco, 86% of respondents report that they have already started a ZT implementation. 

Traditional ZT implementations are focused on securing user access TO applications using zero trust network access (ZTNA). However, as businesses increasingly rely on SaaS applications for their operations, security teams find that traditional ZTNA implementation often overlook critical gaps at the application and data level. These gaps include misconfigurations in access controls, unchecked privileges, data leaks, and overlooked third-party integrations. 

Zero Trust Posture Management (ZTPM) extends the zero trust architecture beyond the network to SaaS applications and data. Join AppOmni CTO, Brian Soby on Tuesday, June 18, 2024 to learn the ZTPM principles that secure THROUGH applications to create an end-to-end ZT architecture. See how to achieve:

1. Standardized least privilege access across your SaaS applications 
2. Continuous monitoring and closed loop ZT implementation
3. Granular access decisions to prevent privilege misuse
4. Dynamic policy enforcement to reauthorize users based on context and behavior
5. Configuration assurance to prevent drift and ensure compliance

Protecting Data and AI in 2024: What CISOs Need to Know

Security automation brings a world of efficiency, saving man hours, reducing costs, and decreasing risk of data exposure. When done right, security automation streamlines manual and time-consuming tasks into automated workflows for the security operations team, making network security processes more efficient and less prone to human error. With enhanced efficiency, faster decisions can be made, improving an organization's entire security posture. 

Exposure management provides a broad view across the entire attack surface so organizations can better understand their cyber risk and prioritize critical business decisions. But what if this could be automated. Security teams would gain visibility into what their attack surface looks like and where they have the greatest risk. IT and security teams would be better positioned to work together to address cyber risk from both a technical and business standpoint. 

In this panel, Gal Nakash, Chief Product Officer at Reco, a SaaS security solution sits down with Denisa Nine, Senior Program Manager at UiPath, a software automation provider to discuss the role of security automation in protecting against the greatest risks that could lead to a breach, how it can be used to tackle over-privileged SaaS access and what the future of automation might hold.
