In this era of rapid digitalization and increased connectivity, it is crucial that organizations especially those with online presence are aware of the corresponding cybersecurity risks that arise from such presence and work to manage them through effective cybersecurity risk management. With ever-evolving cyber threats such as ransomware and phishing attacks, effective risk management is essential to identify, assess, and mitigate cybersecurity risks. An essential component of any cybersecurity risk management is Management oversight.

This panel will discuss the factors responsible for achieving effective management oversight in cybersecurity.


Moderator

Dr. Obadare Peter Adewale

Founder & CVO, Digital Encode

Consider Amplified Devices and Vulnerabilities, API Security, Remote Work, IOT Devices, Misconfiguration, Multi-cloud strategies and their Impact on Attack Surface.

An attack surface is the sum of all entry points that an attacker can exploit to gain unauthorized access to a system/environment/infrastructure. Attack surface expansion refers to the increase in number and complexity of these entry points. As attack surfaces expand, traditional identity systems may not be enough to provide adequate security. With more entry points for malicious actors, there is a higher risk of identity data theft and privilege escalation. Moreover, managing identities becomes more complex as the infrastructure grows, potentially leading to misconfigurations and broken security controls.
