Managing Risk in a Digital World
As organizations extend technology deeper into their day-to-day business operations, they introduce digital risk. Digital risk refers to unwanted and often unexpected outcomes that stem from digital transformation, digital business processes and the adoption of related technologies. These outcomes may include cybersecurity risk, third-party risk, business continuity risk, data privacy risk and others. These fast-moving and elusive outcomes may be more disruptive than the operational risks that businesses have historically managed.

From the Front Lines: 5 Best Practices for Application Defense in Depth
Everyone knows applications are the lifeblood of the enterprise, but as the threats multiply and come at an ever-faster rate, protecting those applications becomes a massive challenge. Layer in the issues associated with moving applications to the cloud, using open source code, implementing rapid release cycles, and being forced to use legacy apps when the development team is long gone, and it's easy to see that application security can be a thankless, endless job.
Layered security, or defense-in-depth, is an admirable goal. The problem is, how do you achieve it? We've been on the front lines for years, finding what works and what doesn't. In the process we have distilled five best practices that will help enterprises of any size tackle the thorny problem of application security in a dynamic world where change is the only constant.
A combination of defenses at the edge, in the network and inside the applications themselves forms the core of the best practices. Layered on top are two additional practices that make all the difference: full real-time visibility with analytics, to help beleaguered security analysts quickly distinguish real threats from noise and take action based on full context; and a consumption model that allow the enterprise to quickly, easily and cost-effectively move protections to where they will do the most good. The result? Vastly improved application security, effective remediation, and a DevSecOps model that works.

The Solution for Your Legacy System's Security: The Cloud
Over the lifespan of an organization, CIOs/CISOs have developed and implemented technologies that have been key to the organization's success. However, CISOs and their security teams today find themselves stuck ensuring that legacy systems are secure. The solution is cloud-delivered security products that are more agile with the ability to implement new detection methods and services faster than on-site solutions.
While cloud security is an ideal solution, it is important to know that using the cloud is more than moving legacy management servers to the cloud.
Takeaways:
- Review the status of legacy system security
- What cloud solutions are the best fit for their business
- What are the main needs in regards to system's scale, data telemetry, staff growth, machine learning, API-based access, and more

Minimizing the Detection to Recovery Timeframe
While recent trends have shown attackers are more frequently using simple tools and tactics to make a big impact to the overall global cost of data breaches, sophisticated threat actors utilizing advanced techniques to avoid detection could potentially have the greatest impact to an organization's bottom line. While commodity threats continue to make the case for investment in preventative technologies, stricter regulations around breach notifications all but mandates increased investment in advanced detection and response capabilities. Now more than ever is minimizing the detection to response timeframe of utmost importance to ensure an organization is able to not only detect threats but contain and respond in a time frame that minimizes the potential risk of impacting their clients and suffering the business altering implications of compliance violations. As organizations begin to address this transition, knowing where to start is a challenge. We invite you to join us, as they cover the best path going forward and real-life examples of how advanced detection and response capabilities were able to thwart attackers and satisfy even the most stringent emerging regulatory requirements.
