Shift Happens: Cyber-Physical Security Convergence as The New Paradigm
In a world where digital and physical threats constantly blur boundaries, adopting a siloed approach to security can result in critical vulnerabilities. The convergence of cyber and physical security is no longer an option, but an urgent imperative. We'll dissect this paradigm shift, discussing how a single, unified approach can dramatically enhance security responsiveness and mitigate risk, ultimately ensuring the survival and success of your organization in the digital age.

Top Five Most Effective Ways Security Professionals Can Protect Physical Security Systems from Cyberattacks
Attacks against physical security systems of all kinds increased dramatically. Global conflicts have increased the pool of trained cyber criminals and the desire to impact the entire supply chain of physical security systems, from software suppliers to data centers, or even the shared cloud SAAS platforms. But, being attacked, or victim of ransomware is not inevitable, in fact there are key steps you can take to ensure you are not one of the thousands of victims that are hacked every week. This session will share how real hackers are breaching physical systems, how they are doing it, and how, in plain English, you can take simple steps to greatly reduce the risk to your organization.

Securing the Cloud
Organizations hesitate to use cloud services due to security concerns, among others. This presentation will discuss securing the cloud in a manner that reduces risks and can even transfer risk to large cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft and Google. Key points:
•    What is different between on-premise and cloud deployments
•    What security risks does the cloud expose you to and which are reduced
•    Common security mistakes in the cloud
•    How to leverage the cloud to improve your security posture
•    Meeting regulatory and compliance requirements in the cloud

Securing the Digital Self: Personal Cybersecurity in an Age of Persistent Threats
Personal cybersecurity has transitioned from a niche concern to a universal necessity. The presentation "Securing the Digital Self: Personal Cybersecurity in an Age of Persistent Threats" aims to illuminate the intricate web of cyber threats facing individuals today, especially those in positions of influence or with substantial digital exposure. Expertise in personal cybersecurity is pivotal in dissecting the complexities of these challenges. This session will explore the latest trends in cyber threats, from sophisticated social engineering to advanced persistent threats, offering a panoramic view of the digital dangers lurking in the shadows. Attendees will gain a deep understanding of the threat landscape and learn practical, proactive strategies to safeguard their digital selves. This presentation is not just about awareness; it's about equipping individuals with the tools and knowledge to actively defend their personal data and digital identities in an increasingly hostile cyber environment.

Cybersecurity's Role in Physical Access for Securing Your Ecosystem from Curb to Core 

In a world where multiple systems are continuously intertwined and connected, organizations are facing increasing vulnerabilities. Cybersecurity is no longer a siloed approach. Each entry point into an organization, digital or physical, is subject to attack. Therefore, it is critical that integrators, consultants, IT staff and the end users' other stakeholders understand key factors that ensure a sound and defensible ecosystem. Explore cybersecurity’s relationship to physical access and how to mitigate cyber vulnerabilities spanning from interoperability across multiple technologies and data sources, and balancing edge device security with the growing demands of analytics and decentralized decision making, to the importance of working with vendors who value security and transparency at the core of their development.
