Vision One for Sovereign and Private Cloud: Solving Challenges of Detecting, Understanding and Responding to Complex Attacks
Speaker: David Abramowitz - Regional Technical Director, Federal
Time: 1pm ET, 10am PT
CPE Eligible
Attackers don’t stay in silos. They move throughout the environment and then it’s up to the security team to piece together viewpoints of the different silos to figure out what happened. And all of the parts of the environment generate a lot of noisy alerts that get sent to the SIEM. The analyst can see a lot of alerts, but they’re just alerts, not a detailed record of all activity, so they are missing important attack details, and the analyst is buried in alerts without context.
Join Trend Micro and Carahsoft on November 2nd for our webinar where attendees will learn how you can get increased visibility, use automated global and local threat intelligence generation & sharing, speed up mean time to detect and respond, centralize command for security operations, contextualize threats, and reduce noise, all in a single on-premise platform.

Securing the DoD and the Intelligence Communities with Zero Trust and phishing-resistant MFA
Speaker: Alex Antrim - Senior Solution Engineer
Time: 2pm ET, 11am PT
CPE Eligible
Zero Trust is vital to maintain robust data security and easy information sharing across the Department of Defense (DoD) and intelligence communities. Previously, DOD professionals relied upon issuance of credentials stored on single-protocol smart cards, creating UX complexity, an increased cost of supporting devices, and limited usage across devices and systems. Zero Trust and phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) are quickly becoming the new bulwark against modern cyber threats, including emerging quantum threats.
To optimize information sharing, provide robust data protection, and ensure that agencies continue to safeguard the nation’s most sensitive information, a Zero Trust security model with a strong identity credentialing and access management (ICAM) stack that supports secure credential issuance on an AAL3 phishing-resistant authenticator, is key. Each of these requirements would be supported by an approved multi-protocol, multi-factor, AAL3 hardware authenticator that has a valid FIPS 140-2 certification.
This session will describe the value of modern authentication, phishing-resistant protocols, and how hardware-based multi-protocol authenticators can secure users across the DoD and Intelligence Communities.
Zero Trust In An Encrypted World
Speaker: Stephen Goudreault - Cloud Security Evangelist
Time: 1pm ET, 10am PT
CPE Eligible
The Zero Trust journey should have a plan. Regardless of which Zero Trust model you are utilizing, there are some universal solutions that will be common amongst them. Threat actors are observed using the same tactics and techniques over and over again. In this presentation, we will briefly examine two top models and then explore what that means on a practical level. We will broadly look at some traditional network visibility solutions and challenge some of the norms around these systems. Do they really solve the problem in the best way in a world where everything is encrypted and threat actors hide in plain sight?
Key takeaways:
- Do you have a Zero trust plan?
- How can we address the ‘no single source of truth’ concept in Zero Trust?
- Can classic tools such as logging really solve for the visibility gap?
- How to deal with the encryption/decryption paradox?
- What method can solve for lateral visibility?
