The Evolving Threat Landscape: Emerging Trends
As attacks against digital systems evolve, so too are security approaches undergoing several notable paradigm shifts in their defense of the tremendously high-value assets stored in and accessed by these systems.

This proposed main-program presentation will analyze the trends, provide industry context, and outline trending best practices to defend against modern attackers.
