Alister F., Account Executive at Rubrik, hosted a roundtable discussion at the CIO and CISO Leaders Australia Summit, in Sydney, with the title " Backup ≠ Cyber Recovery: Navigating the Shift in Required Capabilities and Shared Responsibilities between IT and Cyber Teams". The relentless burden of cybercrime is not just affecting CIOs and CISOs but is also taking a significant toll on IT and security leaders emotionally and psychologically, with 96% experiencing profound impacts, as revealed by a recent Wakefield Research report commissioned by Rubrik. While prevention may be challenging, there's an urgent need for businesses and leaders to ensure the ability to swiftly recover critical services. In this roundtable, thought leaders from Rubrik, along with a select group of IT and IT security peers discussed challenges, the human impact of cybercrimes on an organisation, and best practices moving forward to protect people and data infrastructure. *New Rubrik data security survey: 99% of organisations reported a breach in the last year – and 72% paid a ransom; but, only 16% who paid recovered their data. #CIOLeaders #CIO #cioseries #ciotechasia #onetoonemeetings #technologyleaders #cioleaders #it #focusnetwork #roundtables #speakingengagements #keynotespeakers #focusnetworkevents #summits #CISOLeaders #CISO #cisoseries #ai #aipowered #cloud #emailsecurity #aigenerated #cybersecurity #generativeai

So... my shared speech with Palo Alto at AWS Sydney Summit got featured in IT News article recently on the benefits of Platformization --> https://lnkd.in/gBZYGhih While platformization definitely helps as you scale, there are few simple security services you can enable in AWS, that will get you going for the most part early in cloud security journey, that doesn't cost much; 👇 1) Billing Alerts + Trusted Advisor. 2) GuardDuty - An excellent and continuous threat analysis and real-time security monitoring on your platform. 3) Front your sites/APIs with CloudFront + AWS Managed WAF if you can. 4) Amazon Inspector agentless. If you've got easy to exploit CVEs getting Internet traffic, you might want to know and act. WAF will only get you so far. 5) AWS CloudTrail and as you grow - OrgTrail ( Cloudtrail at Org level that cannot be turned off easily; as the saying goes "Who watches the Watchmen" )
