How To Online Threats to Businesses Through a Cybersecurity Lens
For attendees interested in network and data protection, GSX 2023 features numerous sessions on cybersecurity.
Some of these focus on cybersecurity’s infamous weakest link: people. Sessions such as “Attacking the Soft Spot at Companies—Your Executives’ Personal Lives” and “Cybersecurity is Not Just an IT Problem,” both taking place on Monday, showcase the importance of training employees to build a strong cybersecurity culture. The presentations will tackle common threats such as phishing and necessary mitigation strategies such as incident response.
There are also more technical sessions focused on ransomware and threat prevention. IT professionals looking for guidance in these areas can check out “Preparing for the Next Era of Ransomware.” This session on Wednesday features Jon Clay, Trend Micro’s vice president of threat intelligence, who will talk about new avenues of attack that cybercriminals are taking.
