Event details:

Thursday, January 26, 2023
On-Demand Webinar

Presenters:

Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin
Wayne Hunter, CEO at AvTek Solutions, Inc.

About this talk:

This webinar series explores the following:

  • Risks associated with mobile and cloud computing – and three critical policies, procedures, and protections every business must implement to protect themselves. Overlooking just one of these leaves your organization vulnerable to security breaches, damaging and expensive litigation, and exposing confidential company information to competitors, hackers, and cybercriminals.
  • Truths about bank fraud, which are unknown to most businesses, and how they could (literally) wipe out your bank account.
  • Why firewalls and anti-virus software give you a false sense of security.
  • What it takes to protect your organization against emerging threats and sophisticated cybercrime rings.


Local-Level Threats: Cybersecurity Strategies for Regional Businesses

Event details:

February 16, 2023
On-Demand Webinar

Presenters:

Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin
Dave Gruber, Senior Analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group

About this talk:

Securing your infrastructure is a challenge for any kind of business in 2023. Between the uncertainty of the current economic landscape and the difficulty of maintaining on-premise and cloud hybrid environments, cybersecurity teams have to factor in a lot of moving parts. For regional businesses, the problems are often exacerbated by less-developed security strategies, limited resources — and a higher volume of cyberattacks. To protect against these digital threats, it’s critical for regional organizations to explore the right cybersecurity solution for their specific needs.

What works for an enterprise-scale business is not always what’s best for regional companies. An effective security strategy requires skilled staff, financially accessible technology, and the appropriate architecture for your operations. For many organizations, turning to MDR solutions is the most efficient use of resources and the most effective way to secure your data. Identifying the right MDR vendor is therefore one of the most important components of your cybersecurity strategy.

In this webinar from Adlumin and ESG, industry experts will uncover what threats regional businesses should be paying attention to and outline how to find the right MDR vendor for your architecture.

Tune in to hear more about:

  • The unique security challenges that plague regional-level organizations
  • How to conduct an internal security audit and pinpoint your MDR needs
  • The Adlumin platform and the importance of transparency, SOC and live reporting

VLCM & Adlumin: Ignorance is Not Bliss - It's Negligence

All too many firms report no signs before a massive ransomware attack shuttered their operations. Unfortunately, much of the pre-existing signs are uncovered by the incident response firm contracted by your insurer to review your cyber claim. While it seems a bad news scenario, there is a silver lining. Once discovered, those hidden precursors can tip you off to suspicious activity and stop these attacks before they become business disrupting.

Join cybersecurity expert and author, Mark Sangster as he unpacks visibility and response strategies designed to protect your business from cyber adversaries.

All attendees will receive a copy of Mark’s book – No Safe Harbor: The Inside Truth About Cybercrime and How to Protect Your Business.

Watch on-demand as we discuss the following:

  • Use cases for AI in cyber – where does it fit?
  • Can AI replace cyber analysts?

Tackling the Patching Pandemic to Protect Your Business

Event details:

Thursday, November 17, 2022
On-Demand Webinar

Presenters:

Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin
Skylar Moran, Director of Customer Success at Adlumin

About this talk:

They say you’re only as good as your weakest link. Cybercriminals routinely use vulnerabilities in IT infrastructure to infiltrate the business, steal assets or launch massive ransomware attacks. Keeping up with vulnerabilities and patching requirements is already an IT challenge. With exploits like SolarWinds, Kaseya, and the Microsoft Exchange HAFNIUM, the problem only worsens.

Join experts from Adlumin as they tackle the patching pandemic, demonstrate simplified management of core systems, and learn how to avoid crippling attacks that exploit your defenses.

What you will learn:

  • Why do ransomware-as-a-service and the industrialization of cybercrime accelerate attacks, and how does this increase the number of adversaries who can enter the market?
  • What are some best practices for reducing cracks in your defenses that criminals often leverage?
  • How does Continuous Vulnerability Management create a centralized approach to patch management and identifying critical vulnerabilities?
