School of Phish: Bringing Your Own Security (BYOS) to Cloud Services
John Phil, Sr. Solution Architect ; JT Fanning, Sr. TAM ; Tom Polak, Sr Solutions Architect, SonicWall
Deploying security solutions on the cloud requires a paradigm shift from traditional on-prem solutions. While many attack vectors are the same, there are new ones that have evolved to specifically target cloud-based services.
Messaging and Collaboration suites are probably the most common Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions in use today. Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace are two of the key platforms that threat actors target. Understanding the additional value that these cloud based Email systems have for threat actors is essential to prioritizing and designing their defenses for today’s threat.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) also has a unique set of challenges related to the cloud. Securing your organizations AWS or Azure resources requires next-gen tools to provide the same level of security as on-prem based workloads.
Join our security experts as we discuss the Cyber Security implications of moving to the cloud, and why you need to bring your own security.
