Wrangling Sensitive Data Sprawl: How to Shrink Your Data Protection Footprint

The footprint of sensitive data — such as PII, payment details and health information — is growing rapidly in many enterprises. Security officers contend by spreading their resources thinner, an impractical strategy in an era of scarce security talent and tight budgets. Join this interactive session to discuss the primary driver of sensitive data growth, the drawbacks of the common mitigation strategies, and an architectural paradigm shift that stops the sprawl of sensitive data while accelerating access to data for your most important innovators.

Using Realistic Attack Scenarios and Simulations to Validate, Measure, & Optimize Security Controls

Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) validates cybersecurity controls by safely conducting threat activities, tactics, techniques, and procedures in production environments. BAS provides security teams the ability to test security architecture, people, and processes for continuous assessment of cyber resilience.

This session will demonstrate the core capabilities of a breach and attack simulation platform so you can see a comprehensive and scalable solution for security leaders, regardless of your security posture maturity, to drive your continuous threat exposure management program and support both the technical and business requirements of scoping, discovery, prioritization, validation, and mobilization.
