Make Your Business a Hard Target for Cybercriminals ECE-02
Chief Product Officer
Threatlocker
When it comes to potential targets for cyberattacks, easier to breach means more likely to fall victim. While you might not be able to influence your perceived value, there are changes that can eliminate your organization from being seen as an easy target. We’ll explore practical tactics to reduce your surface area of attack and controls to prevent lateral movement should a breach occur. REGISTER ME

Learn how to ensure cybersecurity practices are integrated and kept current across the entire enterprise landscape while supporting modern business demands. The enterprise data perimeter is gone; sensitive data sprawl across on-premises, cloud, and SaaS environments introduces intolerable risk. This session offers a strategic blueprint for implementing Data Security by Design. We will explore unifying the lifecycle of data protection, from continuous discovery and classification to the strategic application of controls like labeling, tokenization, and encryption. Panelists will discuss how to implement effective data flow mapping and embed developer guardrails directly into pipelines, ensuring protection is automated. Learn how to achieve a critical balance that maximizes security assurance but enabling the essential analytics and business velocity the modern business demands. REGISTER ME

Beyond Agent Fatigue: Architecting a Context-Rich Security Data Strategy ECE-07
CEO & Co-founder
Mesh Security
VP of Channel Sales
Silversky
CEO
Sedara
The greatest barrier to efficient detection is often not a lack of data, but a crippling degree of agent sprawl and fragmented telemetry. Security teams are drowning in low-context alerts and facing severe agent fatigue from disparate EDR, NDR, and log sources. This session moves past simple collection to focus on strategic security architecture, considering the core debate: Full consolidation via a unified XDR platform vs. a federated, best-of-breed approach leveraged through a modern SIEM or data lake. Panelists will share practical guidance for success strategies that refine signal-to-noise ratio, reduce operational sprawl, enhance threat context, and maximize the demonstrable value of security technology investments.

AI for Defense: What Actually Works ECE-08
Principal
J Arnold & Associates

Threatlocker
Founder
Ambertone Solutions
Chief Sales Officer
ArmorPoint
AI is the future of the SOC but, for many, it's just another source of noise and complexity. Security leaders must move beyond the hype to pinpoint where AI delivers measurable, reliable gains. This session cuts through unproven claims to analyze where automated detections and investigation assist genuinely accelerate workflows, and where they introduce unacceptable risk. This expert panel will offer candid guidance on implementing necessary guardrails for accuracy, privacy, and accountability, and consider practical operational issues like validating model drift, defining actionable metrics, and establishing effective human-in-the-loop design to ensure AI enhances, not hinders, the human analyst.

Phishing Defense: Stop Advanced Phishing Attacks That Bypass Your Stack ECE-09
VP
Women in Cybersecurity
Most organizations, including both enterprises and MSPs, have deployed robust Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) and Secure Web Gateways (SWGs), yet they and their clients continue to fall victim to credential theft and business email compromise. Why? Because the threat landscape has shifted from malicious attachments to sophisticated Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) attacks that bypass URL filters and MFA completely. This session dissects the anatomy of these modern bypass techniques and introduces the missing layer of defense needed to secure the "last mile"—the browser itself—ensuring your clients remain protected even when the gateway is evaded.

Cyber-First, Business-Forward: A New Playbook for the Modern Executive ECE-11
Group Editorial Director
TMC
Founder
Minerva Tech Group
Today’s biggest risk isn't just a data breach; it’s the inability to move fast. When security is an afterthought, it acts as a digital handbrake on innovation. This session reframes cybersecurity as a business accelerant, exploring how cyber-first thinking allows organizations to enter new markets more quickly, build deeper relationships and customer trust, and outmaneuver less-resilient competitors. Moving beyond "bits and bytes," this conversation focuses on risk-informed decision-making; how to integrate cyber-thinking into your business priorities and due diligence, your supply chain management, and your digital transformation initiatives; and why moving security out of the server room and into the strategy room will unlock true business velocity driven by build a culture where every employee takes ownership of the company’s bottom-line resilience.

The S&P 50 Web Vulnerability Report: A Quantitative Analysis of High-Value Target Attack Surfaces ECE-13
Security Consultant
MSP Pentesting
While large enterprises spend millions on cybersecurity, they are often plagued by the same basic web misconfigurations that impact small businesses. This session presents the findings of a massive metadata research project: a non-intrusive scan and fingerprinting of the world's 50 largest companies (the S&P 50). Using industry-standard discovery tools like Nikto, OpenVAS, and WhatWeb, this study identifies the most prevalent vulnerabilities currently exposed on the public internet by these high-value targets. Attendees will go under the hood of "Hacker Analytics" to understand how attackers use automated fingerprinting to map a corporate attack surface in minutes. The presentation will categorize common failures—from missing security headers and outdated server banners to exposed staging environments and API leaks—and show the statistical likelihood of these flaws existing even in heavily regulated sectors. Attendees will leave with an understanding of point of failure, as well as ways to fix them. REGISTER ME

Solutions Engineering Manager
Cisco
As enterprises rapidly adopt AI, security often struggles to keep pace, creating critical governance gaps. This session provides a practical framework for securing this new frontier of code and data. Panelists will dissect the unique risks introduced by LLMs, including prompt injection, data poisoning, and sensitive data leakage. We'll outline how to secure the entire AI/Model Supply Chain, implement robust prompt/data protections, and establish granular telemetry for AI services. Expect actionable guidance on secure integration patterns, the strategic decision of "build vs. buy," and rigorous methods for validating vendor security claims to ensure your AI adoption is both fast and safe.
