SimSpace delivers a cybersecurity risk management platform, instilling confidence in an organization’s cybersecurity talent and technologies. With SimSpace, security teams, operational processes, and environments are continuously tested, readily available, and optimally tuned to defend against advanced adversaries.

With the ever-increasing number of cyber breaches, a significant question remains: have we accepted or turned a blind eye to the problem? The recent breach reporting mandates and global regulatory requirements make it clear that we need to do more to protect our assets. 

Although challenged by the cost of cyber insurance, talent gap, increased complexity, more audits, and deeper analysis by investors, it is still essential to find ways to reduce costs, retain skilled talent, demonstrate risk management, and improve cybersecurity. 

Join ESG Principal Analyst Jon Oltsik and Ross Brewer, Chief Revenue Officer at SimSpace, for an exciting Fireside Chat that delves into the world of modern cybersecurity strategies to help you stay ahead of the attack curve. This event will cover:

• Tactics for satisfying investors
• Ways to fill the talent gap while moving from cyber assumptions to cyber certainty
• And how you can put your cybersecurity strategies to the test, balance the checkboxes, and create predictability in a cyber range

Your Approach to Security Operations Must Evolve

Modern SOCs play an essential role in any organization, and this goes beyond cybersecurity -- it has to do with the business entirely. This includes everything from earning trust from employees and customers to reducing impact and costs a potential breach may incur through data loss, lawsuits, or business reputation damage. 

In this panel, experts discuss the tools, techniques, and skills that today’s infosec professionals need for effective security operations and management. Gain insights around what is preventing organizations from building better security detection solutions, why individual growth and certifications are important, and more.

Moderated by: 
Jon Oltsik, Sr. Principal Analyst, ESG Fellow

Threat Cast Thursday: IDC-SimSpace; Building Cyber Muscle Memory

Every executive should have a general understanding of their cybersecurity risk and what it means to their areas of corporate responsibilities. Threats are evolving, legal and regulatory compliance requirements are growing, cybersecurity is at the front of every boardroom, and throwing more money at it is not an option and does not guarantee risk reduction.

Security for FinServices, Remediate Your Attack Surface and Up skill SecOps

With the rise of telemedicine, digital health records, and online patient portals, advances in both medicine and technology are combining to change the experience for patients, providers, and payers in healthcare. While digital transformation initiatives help patients manage their own health and communicate with caregivers, they also introduce new cyber risk. And due to the high value of health records on the black market, healthcare organizations are often targeted by malicious actors.

In this webcast, SimSpace will share best practices on how to execute the following cyber risk management measures:

Evaluate Security Teams & Technology
Safeguard Patient/Provider Data (HIPAA/PCI)
Maintain Regulatory Compliance for payers
Ensure OWASP compliance for web apps/financial transactions or claims processing

Health-ISAC Event:  Improve Resilience Against Insider Threats

On May 27th 2022, a new zero-day remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability (CVE-2022-30190P) was discovered in the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT). According to Microsoft, “An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability can run arbitrary code with the privileges of the calling application. The attacker can then install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts in the context allowed by the user’s rights.” The Follina vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code using a malicious Word document. This vulnerability leverages the built-in MS URL handlers to trigger msdt.exe – this process can then be used to execute PowerShell command.

This webinar will dive into the offensive exploits and defensive remediations to defend with confidence against the Follina vulnerability.
