Internet of Things devices are built with cost & convenience in mind, not security. This makes them easy targets for cybercriminals looking to exploit their vulnerabilities and infiltrate your systems. With IoT adoption on the rise, organizations are looking for ways to improve security at all levels and limit the damage IoT-powered cyber attacks can cause. The stakes are even higher for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

Join this interactive Q&A panel with top security experts across the ecosystem to learn more about:
– IoT as a gateway to your systems
– Key factors for building a successful security strategy encompassing the IoT & IIoT
– Threats targeting the IoT / IIoT
– Industrial threat detection and response
– Recommendations for improving security

Speakers:
– Mark Weatherford, Chief Cybersecurity Strategist, vArmour
– Robert M. Lee, CEO, Dragos
– Jennifer Minella, VP of Engineering and Security, Carolina Advanced Digital

Hospitals and Health Care Systems continue to see a rise in sophisticated cyber-attacks and compromised health records are becoming increasingly valuable to cyber-criminals. In fact, while the average cost of a breached credit card on the Dark Web is only about $2, the average cost of a stolen health record now exceeds $350.

Healthcare now tops the list of the most targeted industries and news stories of high-profile healthcare breaches are becoming more common. Now more than ever, deploying a unified threat prevention, detection, and response solution is critical for healthcare organizations as they transform how they store, access, and protect health records.

Join Carolina Advanced Digital and SentinelOne for a tailored webinar to discuss how SentinelOne’s next-gen suite of automated Endpoint Protection solutions are helping healthcare organizations defend against increasing and emerging risks to sensitive patient data.

Join us for the first of our Thursday Tech Talk series with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, we have a friend from Mist joining us to talk about returning safely to work with contact and proximity tracing inside the organization, how it’s different than the public-private app partnerships, and then we’ll hop over to a demo of Mist’s AI-based Wi-Fi, show you what’s going on in our office, and offer a sneak peek at some upcoming news.

From the team that’s brought you successful NAC implementations for over 15 years! Join us for the second Tech Talk episode with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, Mark and Jen (and Ron if we can coax him) will cover:

• a vendor-neutral look at planning for NAC
• best and common practices plus “gotchas”
• phased approaches for implementing NAC
• vendor comparisons
• a short intro to FortiNAC including a demo
• updates on the product roadmap (at least whatever we can share that’s not NDA).

In future Tech Talks we’ll be covering Aruba’s ClearPass, and vendor-neutral topics of dynamic segmentation and Zero Trust Network architectures. This first NAC session will lay some groundwork for later.

In our third shorter episode, we’ll take a vendor-neutral look at the Wi-Fi technology and trends shaping today and tomorrow. Join Shital and Jen for the latest trends in WiFi 6 (802.11ax), WiFi 6e, cloud-managed solutions, security integrations, CBRS, and more. We’ll talk about what’s real, what’s hype, and how to start planning for what’s on the horizon. Since it’s a shorter session we’ll try to manage Q&A throughout. Hosted by Jennifer Minella.

• 802.11ax/Wi-Fi 6, features and how/when to upgrade
• Update on wired needs for Wi-Fi
• New security standards, WPA3, Open Enhanced, and SAE
• On the horizon Wi-Fi 6e and what you should know
• Non-Wi-Fi wireless, CBRS and Private LTE moving in
• The real scoop on BLE, Location Services, and Contact/Proximity Tracing
