On February 16, 2021, Global CIO Forum in association with Spectrami will host a VirtualSummit on When even Hunters are being Hunted: Predictive Cyber Defense Against the Inevitable. The event is powered by Menlo Security, Securonix, Seclytics & CheckPoint. 2020 has changed the cyber threat landscape of all organisations.
Opportunistic threat actors used the chaos of 2020 as a ladder and targeted organisations worldwide. The sophistication level has reached a point where even giants of cybersecurity industry are getting breached. Security researchers predict that this trend will continue in 2021 and beyond, leading to an inevitable cyber apocalypse.
In this era where even Hunters are being Hunted, legacy prevention and detection-based cybersecurity approach is not enough. Organisations need to be ahead of threat actors and this event will delve into the key factors that can make it possible.
