Beyond Unification: How CNAP Should Reduce Cloud Security Risk

Online

By now, every security team understands that unification is the first step to securing their workloads in the cloud. Disparate niche solutions are impossible to manage, with differing security needs at different points in the cloud tech stack and for different types of microservices at different points in the SDLC. Unification can’t be the end goal, though, because cloud security teams are still struggling with alert fatigue, friction with DevOps and manually trying to prioritize where their attention and remediation is required. In this webinar, we will examine how to reduce cloud security risk and eliminate existing complexity in the cloud, by using smarter unification tools that can help security professionals reduce risk in the cloud and DevOps teams to remain empowered and agile. In this webinar you will learn: How to pull business objectives into the security alert prioritization process Why establishing an asset's effective security policy in the cloud is critical to risk elimination How to eliminate friction with DevOps teams and turn your organization’s security into an innovation enabler

From the Great Resignation to the Great Re-imagination

Online

Join us in a discussion about the importance of hybrid work strategies and culture when facing the Great Resignation. This event is in partnership with WIRED Consulting. As the global pandemic has eased, employees have used this as a trigger to re-evaluate their work/ life balance, their wellbeing, and aspirations for their professional lives. For many, an expectation of a return to pre-2020 working patterns has led them to reconsider their career choices and source more flexible roles that allow them to rebalance life and work. These roles offer a more flexible structure to their working patterns, providing them with the autonomy to be the best version of themselves at work and at home – something that, in turn, benefits their employer. We refer to this way of working as “hybrid work”. Support for hybrid work has become a huge trigger to both attract and retain the best talent, increase productivity, and allow organisations to thrive in today’s dynamic world. The implications for those that fail to embrace this new reality are immense. So, how can brands get this right? In this live event our panel will discuss: What today’s employees are really looking for from the hybrid world of […]
