IDC GCC SECURITY ROADSHOW REIMAGINING SECURITY AND DIGITAL TRUST FOR THE
'DIGITAL-FIRST' ORGANIZATION

HYBRID Event | November 4, 2021

Register Now


OVERVIEW



 

Organizations across the region are increasingly embracing a “digital-first”
approach and accelerating their digital initiatives as they bid to remain
resilient and navigate the uncertainties of the pandemic-induced crisis.
Increasing demand from customers for digital and contactless services — as well
as the rapid shift to cloud-based environments, the proliferation of remote and
distributed work models, and the acceleration of digital innovation supported by
emerging technologies and app development — have together caused a huge
expansion of the attack surface, with perimeters becoming more fluid and dynamic
than ever before. At the same time, the threat landscape has increased in
sophistication, bringing new and unprecedented threats to the fore.

According to IDC, overall annual cybersecurity spending in the Middle East,
Turkey, and Africa will top $4 billion by 2023 as it increases at a CAGR of 7.2%
over the 2020-25 period. Today, digital trust — which incorporates not only
cybersecurity but also privacy, risk, and ethics — is emerging as a key priority
for digital-first organizations and consumers, business leaders, and technology
suppliers, who must expand their understanding of trust and its importance if
they are to success in the new digital economy.

The GCC edition of the IDC Security Roadshow 2021 will explore the latest
developments in the region's security market, take an in-depth look at some of
today’s hottest security-related topics, address the challenges organizations
are facing in a rapidly changing threat landscape, and provide expert strategic
guidance for the security professionals in attendance.

THE FUTURE OF ZERO TRUST IS DIGITAL INTEGRITY

Pete Lindstrom

Vice President, Security Strategies, IDC

Cybersecurity has changed significantly over the past year as organizations have
been driven to assess and update their IT environments. Increasing cloud
architectures with remote access for many have driven Cyber strategists
everywhere to finally move from a defense-in-depth perimeter model to one that
employs Zero Trust. But strategies in security are easy – what we really need is
a plan. This session will provide key insights into the ways to translate
strategy into architectural reality and the important steps needed to develop a
robust zero trust architecture. Along the way, we will describe ways to enhance
and develop that zero trust strategy into an even more robust environment that
incorporates the concepts of digital integrity.

The Perils of an EDR-first Strategy: Why Prevention Is Always Better Than Cure


The security professional’s job has become an endless game of cat-and-mouse,
continually pursuing invisible attackers that can out-think, out-run, and
outsmart most security systems. To combat these and other threats,

enterprises are increasingly turning to endpoint detection and response (EDR)
solutions that provide advanced endpoint protection.

To be sure your endpoints aren’t the weak link against cyber threats, it’s time
to embrace the new approach to EDR, with a prevent-first approach built on a
strong artificial intelligence (AI) foundation for threat prevention.

Cyber Security Threats


Cyber security threats are on the rise and with digitalization of every aspect
of business, IT administrators have to sweat it out to keep the attacks and
hackers at bay. A round-the-clock monitoring of IT and Business security is
necessitated to provide a safe and secure environment for both internal and
external users. Take a look at the top 10 cyber security threats in 2021 and how
to mitigate them.

The Untold Truth About the Threat Landscape and What You Can Do About It


Every day we hear that the threat landscape has evolved and that organizations
need to make changes to their security solutions. But what has really evolved?
And what changes do we actually require? This presentation will dissect what is
happening in real life and explain which changes are critical versus those that
are simply nice to have.
