About Dark Reading Cyber Security Crash Course
Every day, your IT organization is abuzz with news of new hacks, breaches, and cybersecurity vulnerabilities and it’s up to your IT organization to prevent them from affecting your business. In practice, however, many IT departments work in silos. You might know a great deal about IT, but do you really know everything you should about the current cybersecurity environment and emerging threats?
In this two-day Interop ITX Summit program, the Dark Reading editorial team and some of the industry’s top cybersecurity experts will offer a crash course in what you need to know about data security and the dangers faced by your organization. You’ll get “speed reads” on each key area of security, providing you with the essential elements your organization should know about cyber defense, as well as an overview of the latest exploits. You’ll get insight on how to detect a compromise of your IT environment, and recommendations on how to respond. Best of all, you’ll have an opportunity to ask the experts the key questions you must answer in your environment – in a supportive, collegial setting where there are no dumb questions.
