Sponsor Keynote: Client based attacks in a hybrid cloud environment
As more businesses move further towards a cloud environment, we often find ourselves in a hybrid world with servers on both sides of the cloud and clients which need to function in both worlds. This is something that cyber criminals take advantage of and is one of the biggest problems now.
In this keynote we will discuss, for example, if macOS is more secure than Windows? And what about the roles that clients have in a cloud-based digital world?
In a cloud-based digital world, clients play a vital role in cybersecurity. By using cloud services, clients entrust their data to third-party providers. As a result, clients must follow best practices and stay vigilant against potential threats. In the macOS attack chain context, clients can be an entry point for attackers if they are not adequately secured.
By understanding the fundamentals of how cyber criminals actually attack us and how our digital transformation can invent security problems will allow us to build better preventive measures. This keynote will also explain the attack chain and the tools used by hackers. We will also talk about adequate security measures, such as multi-factor authentication, encryption, and endpoint protection.
