Building an Effective Security Strategy for the Threats of Today and Tomorrow

Security leaders worldwide are grappling with the complexities surrounding the SEC’s recent implementation of the Cybersecurity Disclosure.

Not only do the rules bring critical attention to their own organization’s processes for managing material risks and reporting material breaches, but also create a shared responsibility between an organization and its suppliers in ensuring that strong security measures are in place across their supply chain.

Join us as Nabeel Cheema, Special Counsel at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), sits down with ISF experts to give practical advice around the concerns keeping security leaders up at night and empower organizations to turn compliance into a strategic advantage.

An essential webinar for security leaders looking to:
- Demystify the SEC Cybersecurity Disclosure by exploring the rationale behind the mandate, what the rules require, and what they don’t.
- Learn what the regulation means for your organization as experts from the ISF and SEC dispel common misconceptions and answer your questions in real-time.
- Ensure compliance by developing strategies to implement and maintain resilient cyber security practices that fit within increasing budget and resource limitations.

Decoding the SEC Cybersecurity Disclosure

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come roaring to the forefront of today’s technology landscape. It has revolutionised industries and will modernise careers, bringing numerous benefits and advancements to our daily lives. However, it is crucial to recognise that AI also introduces unseen impacts that must be understood and addressed for your employees and your organisation as a whole. Join James McQuiggan, Security Awareness Advocate at KnowBe4, in this thought-provoking presentation where he’ll discuss the unforeseen threats of AI and how to protect your network.

During this presentation, you will:

•        Gain insights into the risks associated with AI and their implications for critical domains
•        Understand the dangers of prompt injection attacks and their impact on data integrity
•        Discover ways to combat the spread of conspiracy theories and misinformation generated by AI
•        Learn how training your users to recognise malicious technology is the best, last line of defense

In addition to his work at Siemens, McQuiggan is also a part-time faculty professor at Valencia College in the Engineering, Computer Programming & Technology Division.

The Dark Side of AI

What role do we play in our organisation's cyber resilience? What factors influence broader business resilience and what is the relationship with cyber?

In this webinar, ISF Principals Esther Schagen-van Luit and Mark Chaplin explore the business resilience landscape since COVID-19, examine what has changed and highlight the cyber risk consequences for organisations already dealing with uncertainty from multiple directions.

The team will reveal a fine thread that originates at the macro level (political, economic and environmental) and weaves its way through to the micro level (organisational, workforce and the individual). Along the way Esther and Mark will draw upon ISF Research, such as the ISF Threat Horizon, and their work with risk and security leaders in ISF Member organisations. They will present the key factors driving the need for cyber resilience in organisations, and highlight why it remains a #1 priority.

Meet the Speakers:

Mark Chaplin is a Principal at the ISF, and an accomplished risk management professional with over 30 years of experience across various disciplines. His expertise spans risk governance and assurance, business resilience, security standards and oversight, compliance management, and incident management. Mark is dedicated to assisting business leaders in developing and implementing high-performance, assurance-driven information risk management capabilities that showcase tangible business value.

Untangling the Cyber Resilience Thread

Artificial intelligence is changing the way we work, and supply chain management is no different. 

With all new technologies it is easy to get carried away with implementation before considering the full consequences. In this session Francesca, ISF Analyst and Supplier Security Product Owner, will be discussing the potential benefits and drawbacks of implementing AI into our third-party relationships.

Meet the Speaker:

Francesca is an analyst in the tools and methodologies team, and is the product owner for the Benchmark and the Supplier Security tool, which are the ISF's security assessment platforms. Francesca led the development of v2 of the Supplier Security tool, which now provides comprehensive coverage of the entire supplier management process. She is passionate about advocating for increased diversity across cyber security, and has been involved in a variety of initiatives to help achieve this, including chairing a panel discussion aimed at addressing barriers of access and encouraging more women to join the industry.

The Influence of AI in Supply Chains

Security, at its core, is a data problem. As data volumes grow exponentially (to the tune of 28% CAGR), organisations struggle to collect, enrich and correlate their security data. 

As a result, today’s data onboarding processes involve countless log formats and ingestion methods, resulting in deployment delays, cost overruns and employee burnout. Gaining complete visibility of your data across your environments, no matter where it lies, is critical for security teams to stay ahead of modern threats.

In this session, Ed Bailey, Principal Technical Evangelist at Cribl, and Arfan Sharif, Director - Technical Marketing of NG-SIEM & XDR at CrowdStrike, will share and explore:

• Mid-year review of 2024 IT and Security key trends and predictions
• The evolution of the SOC to address today’s threat challenges
• Building an enterprise security data strategy – tips and best practices

Building an Enterprise Data Strategy for the Modern SOC

Based on our interviews with more than 4,000 cybersecurity professionals from 13 markets across Europe, our report includes new findings on security preparedness and outcomes, revealing how organizations are coping with rising volumes of cybersecurity incidents, their levels of preparedness and the outcomes experienced.

Key findings:

• 40% of the respondents experienced at least one cybersecurity incident in the past 12 months.
• Only 29% of organizations think they are highly prepared to address a cybersecurity incident.
• Half (50%) of respondents say they are challenged by the number of siloed tools and homegrown solutions for data protection, security, sovereignty, localization, residency, and privacy.

SOGP 2024: All-encompassing Standard of Good Practice for Information Security

90% of the code in Apps today comes from Open Source Software. Whether through infiltrating the software delivery pipeline, deliberately uploading malicious components to popular repositories, or taking advantage of existing vulnerabilities in open source components, attackers are leveraging gaps in supply chain controls to compromise organizations. 

With GenAI quickly becoming a popular tool for developers to generate code, a new threat has emerged. AI package hallucinations is one of the more recent attack types within supply chain that is easy to execute and can have devastating effects. During this presentation we will give an over view of Supply Chain Security with some examples of the current threats, discuss AI package hallucinations, and preventative measures.

This Time it's Personal: The latest trends in business email compromise

Email security risk remains high. From credential harvesting and compromise in the supply chain to data loss and exfiltration, almost every organization has had email security incidents in their Microsoft 365 environments. Egress polled 500 cybersecurity leaders and found that the majority have concerns about the traditional technology they use to protect their organization over email.

Join Jack Chapman, VP of Threat Intelligence at Egress, as he discusses findings from the 2024 Email Risk Report for insight into the threats that organizations face, including:

• How both inbound and outbound threats continue to evade traditional approaches to email security.
• Why traditional technology cannot protect against data loss and exfiltration.
• Threats that secure email gateways (SEGs) fail to detect and why 87% of leaders are considering replacing their SEG or already have.

Email Security in 2024: The Urgent Need to Adapt Your Approach
