    Synopsis and overview of the session

    Against a backdrop of economic uncertainty and greater resource constraints, cybersecurity attacks are increasing in speed, scale and impact.

    Rapid migration to cloud computing and increased digitisation has created even more vulnerabilities and a larger attack surface for adversaries. Threat actors have become much faster at achieving their objectives — creating increased pressure to reduce the time detect and respond to attacks, and mitigate the damage caused by inevitable breaches.

    A recent report carried out by Focus Network found that Cybersecurity professionals are wrestling with increased complexity and too many false positives. It’s not uncommon for companies to use over 50 cybersecurity tools simultaneously, creating multiple data silos and dashboards.

    Addressing these challenges with limited budgets requires much greater focus on streamlining processes and consolidating security tools. Increased automation and renewed emphasis on improving existing processes and cyber hygiene increases the value of cybersecurity investments:

    Focus Network in partnership with SentinelOne, invite you to join this exclusive lunch gathering of IT Security leaders, where we will look to focus on:

    • Growing value from cybersecurity investments by increasing automation, streamlining processes and technologies, and emphasising basic cyber hygiene
    • Aligning security outcomes with business outcomes and goals
    • Metrics used to demonstrate the value of cybersecurity investments.
    • Leveraging technology that reduces skills shortages through AI and ML, rather than increasing it with more alert fatigue
