WithSecure™ Solutions Nordic Client Briefing

Tuesday 13 September Copenhagen | Helsinki | Stockholm

How to secure a safe and reliable digital future

The threat landscape is expanding, and more organizations are being targeted by advanced hackers who are continuously seeking and discovering new ways to infiltrate business networks.

At the same time, companies are becoming increasingly more reliant on technology to manage and develop their businesses – and technology is, in turn, becoming increasingly complex and interconnected.

IT security has become a critical part of any business organization – particularly for IT professionals, who must constantly keep up with the rapidly changing threat landscape to ensure a rock-solid defense against cyber attacks.

However, the risks associated with cyber threats go far beyond attacks on businesses; in fact, the cyber space today has become the new battlefield for modern day warfare.

Join us in our first ever Nordic Client Briefing to gain in-depth insights and world class cyber security solutions from our leading experts in the field, Mikko Hypponen and Christine Bejerasco. 

In our latest client briefing, you’ll learn more about:

  • How the threat landscape has changed and what it currently looks like
  • The latest cyber threats, attacks, and trends
  • Cyber security best practices for effective operations and high compliance
  • Outcome based security solutions to manage new vulnerabilities and mitigate attacks

The event will be held in three Nordic capitals. Choose the location nearest to you and register now!

Online keynote section: Accelerating the transition to outcome-based security 

The digital world is part of our real world, and we are building a future that is increasingly becoming more digital. Building a secure digital future starts from building strong digital foundations today. How do we ensure that we get there when cyber security is still viewed as an annoying and non value-adding requirement for organizations, rather than as an enabler?

Christine Bejerasco, Chief Technology Officer, WithSecure

14:50-15:30

Online keynote section: Cyber Arms Race

Technology shapes our conflicts and crisis. Technology shapes the wars we fight. Geopolitical crises extend to cyberspace, and cyberspace has no borders. What will the next arms race look like?

Blue Team Virtuous Cycle

While we do our best to prevent attacks from happening, it is critical to be prepared for when one does happen. This session will discuss how to minimize impact by continuously improving readiness and working together to build a true virtuous cycle of improved defensive capabilities to be prepared for, detect and respond to attacks.

Live session: Why you may NOT need a Red Team exercise

WithSecure is one of the most experienced European suppliers of Red Team services. We have delivered Red Team exercises under the regulatory regimes of CBEST ... TIBER-EU going back as far as these schemes have existed. However, with this experience, we have also come to recognize that organisations who do not have a regulatory requirement for full scale Red Team testing are often much better served by other types of, more cost-effective, consultant engagements. While a full Red Team test can be valuable, it is a test and not primarily an educational tool. WithSecure prides itself on not just being the best partner for Red Teaming services, but also helping clients find out how to improve their defences using more collaborative methods before actually "taking the test". In this talk, Olle will break down these different types of engagements and show how they can be used to improve an organisations resilience in the most efficient way possible.
