Session 1 – Securing Your Active Directory Against Cyber Attacks
Active Directory (AD) has become the favored target for attackers to elevate privileges and facilitate lateral movement through leveraging known flaws and misconfigurations. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how to effectively monitor your AD environment so you can see every change, predict which anomalies or weaknesses carry the greatest risk, and act to disrupt critical attack paths before attackers exploit them

Session 2 – The Cybersecurity Workforce of Tomorrow
With a current cybersecurity workforce gap between qualified cybersecurity professionals and both industry and government sectors now in the millions, it is getting increasingly more difficult to identify, attract and retain a highly educated and highly efficient cybersecurity workforce. Add to that the introduction and advancements in AI and Machine Learning, Quantum Resistant Cryptography and now Chaos Testing into the cybersecurity infrastructure and the workforce of tomorrow looks very different than it does today. Dr. Michael Nizich, author of The Cybersecurity Workforce of Tomorrow presents various discussion topics from his latest book and discusses how we can get better prepared for the changes coming down the road for all of us.
