IDC Security Roadshow

The Middle East and Africa has proven to be one of the fastest transforming regions around the world and one of the most challenging for cybersecurity authorities and decision makers. Attackers have tried and will continue to try elevating threats to MEA over other regions. This session will dive into the recent cyberthreat landscape, describing the new tactics utilized by criminal attack groups in the region and highlighting their top targets and interests. It will also reveal how attackers are adapting to regional changes to boost espionage, conduct robberies, and spread destruction.

Next-Gen SOC refers to the next generation of Security Operation Centers that employ advanced technologies and methodologies to enhance threat detection and response. These SOCs utilize advanced threat intelligence, automation, and orchestration to streamline security operations. They leverage analytics and visualization techniques to gain deeper insights into security events, employ contextual awareness to integrate information from various sources, and address the challenges of cloud and hybrid environments. Next-Gen SOCs also focus on incident response and collaboration, providing tools for efficient coordination and communication during security incidents. Overall, they aim to improve the proactive and effective management of cybersecurity threats.

The issue of trust is now everywhere, with the pace of digital transformation increasing across all sectors, hybrid working practices accelerating in response to the pandemic, and supply chain disruptions and geopolitical threats on the rise. Digital trust represents a new era of business agility, powered by digital, cloud, and security transformation. Today, the issue of trust is increasingly being incorporated into new technologies, reshaping how vendors and organizations define it.

In today's ever-changing cyber security landscape, it is more important than ever to stay ahead of the curve. Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) is a critical tool for doing this, as it provides organizations with the information they need to identify, assess, and respond to cyber threats. In this presentation, we will discuss the importance of CTI and how it can be used to protect organizations in Egypt. We will also explore some of the latest cyber threats facing Egypt, and how CTI can be used to mitigate these threats. By the end of this presentation, you will have a better understanding of CTI and how it can be used to protect your organization from cyber threats.

Today, network, application, and security departments are struggling with massive network communication issues, hidden threats, and misconfigurations that are driving a spike in cybersecurity incidents. This session will discuss how the automation of network anomaly detection and response, deep network traffic analysis, and data collection can help to provide better insights into an organization’s current security posture.
