Cyber Defense Ineffectiveness and What We Can Do About
Cyber Defense Ineffectiveness and What We Can Do About

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- St. Louis-based firm Alpine Security ("Alpine") has partnered with SecureWorld to offer the popular "Cyber Defense Ineffectiveness and What We Can Do About" workshop on March 24, 2020, the day before the SecureWorld Boston Conference (March 25-26, 2020). The workshop includes valuable group activities and exposes attendees to data gathered from real-world penetration tests, audits, and incident responses while bringing attention to the current state of cyber defense. Attendees will become familiar with the Top 5 trending cybersecurity misconceptions and will learn actionable solutions and tools to approach cyber defense from a risk-based perspective. Upon completion of this 6-hour training session, attendees will be eligible to receive 6 CPEs.

Registration for the March 24th Boston SecureWorld PLUS workshop is currently open via the following website.

"Cybersecurity is ineffective primarily due to overcomplication. This overcomplication can often be attributed to the "smartest person in the room" syndrome, which is pandemic in the industry." - Christian Espinosa, Alpine Security CEO

Post this

Throughout this training session, Alpine Security's COO, Jana White, will candidly discuss the following key elements:
-- Despite all the Next-Gen tools, latest products, compliance requirements, etc., breaches still happen daily. Why is this, and what can we do about it?
-- Data gathered from real-world penetration tests, audits, and incident responses to focus on the current state of cyber defense.
-- Motivations, breaches, and primary tactics used by attackers.
-- Opportunities and solutions to address common issues such as how most organizations focus on the wrong items, how egos get in the way, how compliance doesn't really help, how risk is rarely assessed, and how cloud migrations can actually make security worse.
