In the past two years, the technology landscape has changed. Nowadays, companies are relying on and deploying new technology fast, but fail to adopt new security paradigms at the same speed. At the same time, Cybercriminals have accelerated their malicious operations.
Find out how criminals are evolving their business models and operations, how a workforce of digital natives is impacting security operations, especially as employees move to remote work. We will also discuss the convergence of automation, analytics and AI in technologies designed to help SOCs better adapt and respond to intensified attacks and evolving business practices such as cloud services adoption.
Join us for a panel discussion with Keren Elazari, A Friendly Hacker & Cybersecurity Analyst, and our Palo Alto Experts: Bruce Hembree, Cortex Field CTO, and Irena Damsky, Cortex XDR Director of Research to hear all about new hackers’ tactics and what are the best weapons to defend your organization.
In this session you’ll learn about:
- NEW cybercriminal techniques to bypass security solutions
- Ransomware and data privacy trends like Dual extortion
- How Cortex solutions can help your organization to defend against exploitation of the Log4Shell vulnerability and understand if you’ve been impacted or if you’re vulnerable
- How the lack of visibility of your assets offers an opportunity to attackers
- What does a proper remediation (rapid) response look like?
