SecWest 2022 Bonus Session: Pentera 101: Changing the Game of Offensive Security

  • Friday, 06 May 2022 3:30PM EDT (06 May 2022 19:30 UTC)
  • Speaker: Jay Mar-Tang

This session is to walk through a demonstration of Pentera: The Automated Security Validation solution. Organizations over the years have been following a defense in depth model to protect their critical assets. While this strategy makes sense; the tools, processes, and procedures surrounding this initiative have grown significantly. How confident can organizations be that each layer and the enormous effort undertaken is working effectively? Jay Mar-Tang will take the time to walk through how Pentera can validate which risks are present, which mitigative efforts are working efficiently, and how security practitioners of all expertise can leverage Pentera both internally and externally to know with certainty how strong the security posture actually is.

SecWest Bonus Session: Connected Everything: Zero Trust Security Hygiene for Infrastructure Access for IT & OT

The state of IT/OT security has evolved. Keeping up with this evolution requires adopting a Zero Trust secure access framework. This discussion will focus on how today’s distributed IT/OT environments are challenging organizations to provide secure remote access for 3rd parties and global partners to monitor and administer IT/OT systems. We will discuss the following key elements of defining a secure framework for implementing remote access for IT/OT:
• The relevance of Zero Trust to today’s IT/OT environments
• Employing agile remote access methods to allow fast onboarding and offboarding for remote access
• Centralizing access to prevent bad hygiene such as the use of shared
• The importance of transactional visibility into user activity for SSH and RDP allowed access
