Our #PartnerPOV team was ON-SITE in Toronto last week for the Fortinet Cybersecurity Summit 2024! While there, Katie Bavoso sat down with #Fortinet partners like Ivo Wiens, Field CTO, Cybersecurity, for CDW Canada, who described a client success story in which Fortinet helped him create a "store in box" that enabled a large retailer to open stores faster and grow the business with ease. Check out this interview on Channel Insider below, and stay tuned for more from Fortinet #Cybersecurity Summit!

Dennis D. for years has been advocating for the deployment of #RPKI, and now, in 2024, we slowly wake up toward this ! See Dennis, there is hope, if you have a big amount of patience "White House Unveils Road Map to Fix BGP" The White House Office of the National Cyber Director released a plan outlining steps network operators and service providers need to take to secure BGP from abuse and configuration errors. connected=hacked, but less likely through BGP if you have RPKI in place #cybersecurity #BGP #RPKI https://lnkd.in/e7hs_XwP

Testing a company's internal security isn't a new concept, but it has become extremely important in today's digital landscape driven by #cloud environments and #AI tools. This recent article in Canadian Security Magazine does a great job of outlining how exactly offensive security, like #pentesting, can help organizations put their security to the test and identify potential vulnerabilities: https://spr.ly/6040dG8Wg #IWorkAtBell

🚨 "How do we actually START implementing Zero Trust in OT environments?" Excited to share insights from our Cloud Security Alliance guidance "Zero Trust for Critical Infrastructure", co-led with Jennifer Minella and developed through our incredible ZT4 Device team. What makes this guidance valuable? → Focus on practical, achievable steps → Designed to work with existing infrastructure → Based on proven Zero Trust principles The framework demonstrates how organizations can: * Start without major initial investment * Build on existing security measures * Create a foundation for future improvements * Navigate common implementation challenges Our framework has been strengthened through valuable review feedback from leading organizations including DoD, CISA, NSA, MIT Lincoln Labs, Mitre Corporation, and Johns Hopkins APL. Get the guide here: https://lnkd.in/e_eEF7Q2 This guidance was made possible through contributions from Philip Griffiths, Dr. Ron Martin, CPP, Mark Fishburn, Michael Roza, ✅Roland Kissoon MBA, CCSK, CRISC, Anna P., Shamik Kacker, Rajesh Murthy, Samia OUKEMENI, PhD, Guarav Agarwaal, Shruti K., and Nathan M., and of course thanks to Jason Garbis and Erik Johnson for their leadership. Special thanks to the entire CSA Zero Trust Working Group and our expert reviewers - your insights enhanced this guidance significantly. While the framework enables self-directed implementation, experienced partners can help accelerate progress and avoid common pitfalls. Ready to explore Zero Trust for your critical infrastructure? Let's connect. #CriticalInfrastructure #Cybersecurity #ZeroTrust #Innovation

The traditional approach for defenders is to list security gaps directly related to their assets in the network and eliminate as many as possible, starting with the most critical. Adversaries, in contrast, start with the end goal in mind and focus on charting the path toward a breach. They will generally look for the weakest link in the security chain to break in, and progress the attack from there, all the way to the crown jewels. Security teams must embrace the attacker’s perspective to ensure their organization’s cybersecurity defenses are adequate. Drawing an analogy to a daily life example, the standard way to defend our house from intrusion is to ensure all the doors are locked. But to validate that your house is protected requires testing your security like a burglar: attempting to pick the locks, climb through windows, and looking for places where house keys might be “safely” stored. It’s time to pivot our lens to be better prepared and more aligned to the adversary. It is better to be informed of the approach of the adversary and test accordingly. #knowyourenemy #shiftingourtestinglens #testinglensoftheadversary #noble1 #tomshaw Luke Joas Michael Gioia Robert Evans Grenadine Lau Elissa McGrath TOM SHAW
