Keynote Presentation

Finding Kimo

Account Take Over (ATO) attacks have become a major issue for many retail and online services companies. To reduce the effectiveness of these attacks it's critical to remove the financial incentive from the attacker AND unmask the person who profited from selling the tools used for account take overs. Reducing the potential for monetizing their efforts and increasing the personal risk removes thousands of attackers equation. Unmasking the person who developed the account "checker" exposes him or her to law enforcement scrutiny further reduces the number of attackers using their tool or it's derivative. The GameStop CISO will discuss the process and tools used to track one of the more prolific developers of account checking software and uncover his true identity.

Presented by:

Jim Motes, Chief Information Security Officer, GameStop

Think Tank

You've got a Bad Leaver with the Keys to Your Kingdom

The biggest driver to enhancing your insider threat program should be your
privileged users. Are you ready to have an IT admin leave your company on bad
terms, whatever the reason? Let us chat about what we have seen, actions we
would take, and what not to do in order to survive an adverse termination with
elevated privileges.

Presented by:

Cindy (Satterfield) Heiner, Head of Information Security/ Director IT Security Information Protection, Aon

Think Tank

Going Mobile, Securely

The average employee uses at least 3 different mobile devices to access business data. This number has risen and so has the amount of company
data that is being stored on each device. Each device represents another endpoint that needs to be secured. While mobile malware threats are low,
it's expected that there will be a rise in data breaches directly related to mobile devices. Providing access to company data via a secure web
application infrastructure with real-time vulnerability management is one way of reducing risk with mobile devices.

Takeaways:

Mobile devices are generally considered safe means to access business data
Employees use an average of three mobile devices, each is its own security challenge
Data breaches through mobile devices are expected to increase

Presented by:

Randy Stroud, Information Security Officer, Hunt Companies

10:40 am - 11:00 am

Executive Boardroom

Navigating M&A

Augmented Analytics focus on specific areas of augmented intelligence, using machine learning to enhance how data and analytics are presented and shared. As the capabilities of this technology advance rapidly, it is pivotal to understand these advancements.

Takeaways:

Plan the detail but be flexible and nimble
Embrace the change

Executive Boardroom

Becoming More Decentralized

Today, increased centralization has put the power and trust into the hands of the few big players. This, of course, raises many security concerns. The risk of disruptions and undesirable outcomes increases as centralization opens the door to exclusive possession or control of commodities and services. As a result, technologies like Blockchain implemented to create decentralized alternatives as they move computing resources away from centralized servers.

Takeaways:

Evaluating the risks of centralization on availability, confidentiality and resiliency
Exploring decentralized technologies like Blockchain and edge computing that offer visibility as well as enhanced security for your organization
Understand the fact or fictionalization of developing AI strategies and the cause for concern for decentralized AI models

The plethora of mobile devices has enabled them to work where they want and when they want which has raised the bar on employee expectations for tools and capabilities from their employers. In order for companies to retain the best and get the most out of their employees, it is vital to design and continually update the digital workplace. We will discuss the current trends as well as share case studies of successful digital workplace implementations.

Takeaways:

Highly skilled employees will demand a mobile and efficient workplace
Keeping these skilled employees fully engaged and passionate about your company is critical to achieving the desired digital transformation

Thought Leadership

You Need to Know Who Is Accessing Your Data, But Do You Really?

Knowing who is accessing what data is at the heart of security. Today, users and attackers get to your data through a mesh of web applications, APIs,
and microservices. Unfortunately, your database logs only report the querying source as an authorized intermediary application without the originating
requestor's information. This blind spot causes glaring gaps during audits, slows incident response, and impede breach detection.
Learn how to apply new ways of continuously linking originating users' information to every database access with cohesive interworking between edge WAF, server RASP, and Data Activity Monitoring tools.

Think Tank

Bring Your Own . . . Enhancement

Over the next 5 years, it's forecasted that roughly 30% of enterprises will augment BYOD policies to include 'bring your own enhancement' (BYOE) to add focus to augmented staff members. It will be tempting for IT to try and regulate or control human augmentation technology, but the real focus should be to exploit the employee's interest in BYOE to advance the business. We are seeing manufacturing companies currently using wearables to promote worker safety, and companies in both travel and healthcare industries are using these devices to boost productivity. With these technologies constantly evolving, organizations should contemplate how these enhancements can be leveraged in both the personal and professional lives of the workforce.

Takeaways:

Impactful examples of BYOE
Technology Strategies to encourage employees to use AI
Critical considerations for IT's need to regulate Augmented Technology

Think Tank

Emerging Tech Offering Changes to the Workforce Landscape

The barriers are falling. Roughly 30% of the American workforce is represented by individuals with disabilities, and thanks to AI and AR this significant talent pool can more actively contribute to address the scarcity in available talent. This will bring about necessary changes in the organization ranging from the culture to the technical aspects. Food for thought: companies that employ disabled individuals hold an 89% higher retention rate, 72% rise in production and a 29% increase in profitability.

Takeaways:

How AR and AI will open the door for more employment opportunities for disabled people
How new positions and technologies will alter organizational structure
How AI and AR will effect hiring standards in the future
