When it comes to a cybersecurity strategy, many businesses make the mistake of focusing on protecting or encrypting their network or device, without aligning risk, reputations and revenue where it matters most – the data.
By not securing the data itself, security gaps are exposed. In today’s computing model, data is read on mobile devices and edited on public cloud platforms, which shifts control over information away from the organizations that own it and creates vulnerable gaps. Many IT professionals don’t realize they can reframe their plans to close the gaps for protection that fits within existing software and hardware.
Joe Sturonas, CTO of PKWARE, will expose the gaps that exist with today’s current mindset and dive into the latest tools and techniques to bridge the divide. Joe will demonstrate how professionals can focus on the data itself, regardless of the file format, data origin or compliance standard.
- Learn about gaps that exist in your data security plan
- Gain actionable lessons learned from testing and implementation
- Identify where security can be improved and tools to support
