Technical

If you’re a hands-on cybersecurity practitioner, you won’t want to miss this in-depth track led by AttackIQ purple teaming expert Ben Opel, who spearheaded the initial development of the US Marine Corps’ cyberdefense doctrine. This track will cover strategies to protect your business in the “new normal” including how to break red and blue team silos and create a purple team culture, the role of the MITRE ATT&CK® framework in adopting a threat-informed defense, and how to defend your organization against breaches and attacks. You’ll also hear directly from Allan Alford, the CISO and CTO of TrustMAPP; Gabe Lawrence, General Manager of Cybersecurity Protection of Toyota; and experts at MITRE Engenuity’s Center of Threat Informed Defense (CTID).

Financial Services 

Built for cybersecurity leaders in the banking, wealth management and insurance sector, this track features best practices for evolving from reactive to proactive programs, transformational strategies for bringing automation to the cybersecurity tech stack, using breach and attack simulation as part of your operational resiliency plan, and making cybersecurity a board-level conversation. You’ll hear from leaders at Credit Suisse and CSAA Insurance Group, plus AttackIQ cybersecurity experts.

Healthcare

The healthcare industry has been a primary target for cyberattacks worldwide, especially since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. Successful cybersecurity risk management requires that cyberdefense technologies keep pace with adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures. If you run a cybersecurity program in a healthcare or public health organization, join this track to learn how to unite risk and and threat management and make data-driven, threat-informed decisions a part of your strategic program. You’ll hear from Ron Mehring, CISO of Texas Health Resources; Paul Haywood, CISO of Bupa; leader of ethical hackers and best-selling author Ted Harrington; and Dr. Suzanne Schwartz, one of the FDA's leading cybersecurity experts.
