Endpoint protection solutions are an essential part of the enterprise security toolkit, but they’re quickly becoming some of the most complex products on the market.

Information Security professionals, CIOs, and CISOs trying to push their organization into the modern era of security need to conduct extensive research to correctly plan, assess, and deploy the right solution for their organization.

In this conversation with two prominent CISOs – Paul Calatayud from Surescripts and Arindam Bose from Bank of Hope— you’ll hear how they keep their organization safe from attacks by stopping them at the endpoint. The discussion is moderated by Norm Laudermilch, Invincea Chief Operating Officer.

The Information Age may just as well be known as the age of the data breach. Malware co-developed almost simultaneously with the advent of the Information Age.

Creeper, the first known computer virus, was developed in 1971, just three years after the creation of the ARPAnet. Creeper would not look unfamiliar to a modern information security professional. It spread unchecked through the primitive internet, displaying the text “I’m the Creeper. Catch me if you can!” on affected mainframes.

Shortly thereafter, a different program—Reaper—was developed. Its only purpose was to delete Creeper. It was the first antivirus software. From that playful beginning, malware detection and interception developed into its present-day arms race.

Today, endpoint protection has moved far beyond basic malware scanning—it’s  now a commodity of information security. Now, as Malware evolves into targeted Advance Persistent Threats, any response has to be layered, proactive, and highly visible.

In this 47-slide presentation, InfoSec pros from Panda Security walk us through the history of malware, how it’s changed, and what we can do to fight back.

According to the 2016 State of Endpoint Security Survey from by the SANS Institute, 44% of respondents report that one or more of their endpoints have been breached in the past 24 months, with desktops, laptops and servers making up the most  often compromised endpoints. Login and access credentials are the most commonly exfiltrated information.

55% of survey respondents spend 3 or more hours per compromised endpoint, and over 70% of say that they find it difficult or impossible to determine when an incident has been fully remediated.

These statistics encompass a wide set of industries, from financial services to education, all with one thing in common—vulnerability. So while each network is uniquely built to support your particular business, none is immune from being breached.

To protect your data most effectively, you need a way to find the threats that are most relevant to your organization and prioritize them so you can remediate the most critical and lethal ones first.

In this 21-slide presentation, George Mina, IBM Program Director, and Mark Hafner, IBM Systems Engineer, examine the state of endpoint security and demonstrate how the integration of advanced tools can offer accelerated risk prioritization and incident response to keep your corporate and customer data secure.

Want to know how to use API management for the security enforcement of microservices? This 41-slide talk by Charles Moulliard explains how microservices (Restfull Endpoint) could be secured using a policy-based approach to intercept the HTTP request. A less intrusive pattern is proposed at the level of the Web Container using Contrants mapping the Web Resources with JAAS API & Roles. Finally, Moulliard will investigate how such Security design can be developed using an external API Management platform which enforce the Security and Governance aspect.

Many organizations are looking to level up their security with Endpoint Detection and Response, but recognize a resource gap exists. They can either hire dedicated headcount and build up their internal abilities. Or they can outsource their detection and response. There are tradeoffs with each approach.

In this 40-minute presentation, Red Canary’s CTO and Co-Founder Chris Rothe and Carbon Black’s Security Strategist Rick McElroy and you’ll learn:

– The key differences between two of the most common endpoint outsourcing options: Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
– Important criteria to consider before increasing headcount or outsourcing your security
