Abstract: Cloudy with a Chance of Security
The emergence of ‘The Cloud’ has prompted organizations to rethink traditional IT models. Many have adopted this disruptive technology in one form or another, but few have properly addressed its implications to their organizations’ overall security posture. During this presentation Justin will discuss some of the most prevalent security challenges organizations face when adopting cloud-based solutions. Additionally, Justin will provide recommendations and solutions based on real-world experiences to overcome these challenges and embrace the cloud.

Speaker 2: Bill Olson-

Abstract: Out of the Blue: Responding to New Zero-Day Threats
Your CIO read about a new Zero-Day vulnerability and is asking if you're at risk. The next 24 hours are a scramble to get signature updates, beg for scanning permissions, and nervously wait for results. This talk covers best practices for protecting against zero-day threats, including using the new Qualys Threat Intelligence and Zero-Day Risk Analyzer service for immediate knowledge of emerging zero-day vulnerabilities and the risks they pose to environments.
