"Without Offense, How Do You Know Defense is Working?" | A Fireside Chat with Jay Shah, Horizon3.ai Senior Solutions Engineer
Join Jay Shah, Senior Solutions Engineer at Horizon3.ai, for an eye-opening session where he’ll discuss real-world examples of what we discovered in networks just like yours. You’ll hear about how fast and easy it is to compromise some of the largest networks in the world – with full domain takeover – often in minutes, and sometimes, without even exploiting a CVE. Discover a new approach to find unknown weaknesses in your infrastructure that could quickly result in ransomware exposure.
During this session, you’ll learn about:
Why the industry needs a paradigm shift to prioritization
How a false sense of security results in a real sense of breach
The fallacy of the perimeter that really wasn’t there at all
