How To Reduce Your Attack Surface and Stay Ahead of Breaches - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Let’s face it, cloud security is complex. Dozens of solutions to choose from, each with different offerings branded as “cloud security.” As companies migrate to the cloud and attackers become more sophisticated, hardening their perimeters is not enough. The importance of reducing our server’s attack surface has never been more vital. However, pre-runtime solutions can only do so much. Companies must face reality, breaches happen. In this session, Avigayil Mechtinger and Ell Marquez delve into the challenges companies face when moving beyond traditional endpoint solutions, the most common vulnerabilities that attackers are exploring, and most importantly, how to defend environments no matter where the attacker is hidden. After all, wouldn’t you want to know if the attacker’s process calls are coming from inside the house? In this talk, we will focus on: - Threat vectors in compute assets - Lessons to be learned from historical breaches - Common compute resources vulnerabilities - The importance of visibility into the code running on the system when mounting our defenses
