Backup is not equal to cyber recovery
Legacy backups were built for natural disasters, not cyber attacks. So why are organizations still trying to defend against cyberattacks with legacy backup tools?
Most organizations are not prepared to recover from a cyberattack. Relying on legacy backups to protect your data against cyberattacks could leave you dealing with the aftermath for months and cost your organization millions of dollars.
Learn how to find and eliminate weaknesses in your security posture and simplify your security footprint, so you can find threats sooner and recover faster.

The H.H. Hospital of Mol found itself in the heat of two crises...
In the middle of a full corona pandemic, they were hit by a cyber-attack. What were the immediate consequences? What was the impact on the healthcare provision? How did the hospital respond to the ransom demand? How did the recovery go? What are the long-term effects on the hospital and its employees?
Dr. Ivo Jacobs will take you through the true story of the cyber-attack, from A to Z. He will openly share what happened and what the consequences were. Next to that, he will share how they will extinguish new threats in the future based on the lessons learned.

The SASE journey. How to cope with the new way of (hybrid) working?
The convergence of the network and security is crucial because digital acceleration is driving the rapid distribution of employees, devices, and applications. As networks became fluid, elastic, and untrusted, security has to evolve and secure the employees no matter where they are, and regardless of what network they´re connecting to to access applications wherever they are with the best possible end-user experience. In this session, Patrick Commers will explain how Fortinet´s single vendor SASE framework will enable this.

Securing next-generation campus networks
The proliferation of IoT devices and the adoption of hybrid work initiatives have resulted in complex, geographically distributed networks with unique visibility and security challenges. Additionally, with organizations accelerating digital transformation to drive business efficiencies, IT teams are facing a growing challenge when it comes to implementing Zero Trust and SASE security frameworks from edge to cloud.
Aruba Dynamic Segmentation is a critical element of the Edge-to-Cloud Security built into Aruba ESP (Edge Services Platform). It is based on establishing least privilege access to IT resources by segmenting traffic based on identity and associated access permissions. This is a fundamental concept of both Zero Trust and SASE frameworks, where trust is based on roles and policies and not on where and how a user or endpoint clients such as IoT devices connect.
Dynamic Segmentation unifies role-based access and policy enforcement across wired, wireless, and WAN networks with centralized policy definition, ensuring that users and devices can only communicate with destinations consistent with their role – keeping traffic secure and separate.
