Over the past year we’ve watched the evolution of supply chain and ransomware attacks gain momentum in scale, pervasiveness, and unpredictability. Now more than ever, it's important for the public and private sectors to come together and unite against the damaging impact these attacks present to all industries, government services, and to the general public.

Please join IBM Security as we bring together the country's top regulators, corporate CISOs, and cyber security experts. We will dive into national security and business risks posed by security threats and how to best respond.
What are the latest tactics and techniques being deployed by today’s hackers? This session will discuss the top cyber threats organizations are being called upon to prevent, detect, defend -- and recover from in the worst case scenario. We’ll also examine the fallout from an attack -- including painful, months-long technical recovery, fines and greater scrutiny from regulators.

Zero Trust & XDR: Security Imperatives for Right Now
The pandemic has altered the security landscape for many enterprises. While there are new environments to protect, there are fewer available skilled resources to do so. In addition to the use of AI in security, concepts such as XDR and Zero Trust have gained prominence that promise a tighter, and tougher safeguard from threat vectors. Join our IBM panel of Security experts as they discuss how these security measures can help keep enterprises safe today.
