The Evolving Ransomware Landscape: A 2025 Survival Guide

Ransomware: The Threat and Response Virtual Summit Morning Keynote

Emanating from a military concept, cybersecurity attack surface management (ASM) has become an important strategy for combatting increasingly sophisticated, targeted and complex attacks. 
ASM has evolved significantly in recent years, from a siloed approach that visualizes exposed assets of organizations to interconnected platforms, monitoring a wide range of internal and external cyber risks. ASM solutions have also become more accessible for smaller organizations that have only a limited cybersecurity department.
In this webinar, a panel of experts will examine the latest attack surface trends and discuss the future of ASM. This includes attackers’ targeting of the cloud and use of malicious AI tools, and how ASM strategies need to evolve in the face of these new threats. 
The use of AI and automation will be essential to rapidly discover surging vulnerabilities and other attack techniques, while real-time threat intelligence can further transform ASM. 
Join this webinar to learn:
• The origins of ASM and its breakthrough into mainstream cybersecurity
• How attackers are targeting the expanded attack surface, including the cloud
• The new features tools and integrations necessary to enhancing ASM solutions against modern threats
• What the future holds for ASM

Elevating Cybersecurity: A CISO's Guide to Influencing Leadership and Driving Business Resilience

In recent years, the CISO community has been rocked by the prospect of being held personally liable for data breaches and other types of cybersecurity incidents.
Two high profile cases have underlined regulators’ focus on personal liability for security failings during such incidents, including among CISOs. These were the conviction of former Uber CISO Joe Sullivan in 2022 for federal charges relating to the cover up of a data breach from 2016, and the now dismissed case against SolarWinds CISO Tim Brown under allegations of deliberately downplaying or failing to disclose cyber-risks at the firm.
In this fireside chat session, defense attorney and federal regulatory expert Jessica Nall will discuss the shift to personal liability in cybersecurity and the approach we are seeing regulators take in this space. 
Nall will also offer practical advice for CISOs on how to protect themselves from regulatory and criminal liability following a cybersecurity incident at their organization.
