IoT devices can improve business operations, but they also create new pathways into a business's digital environments. This can lead to cyber incidents that bring down business activities and/or create huge privacy breaches or thefts of sensitive intellectual property.

There are new endpoints now touching networks that were never imagined when networks were built, such as smart building systems, security cameras, temperature gauges, valves on a chemical line that distribute liquid (sometimes toxic and dangerous), etc. Similarly, in a bring-your-own-device (BYOD), Internet of Things (IoT) world, our remote workforce creates a whole new set of challenges when securing all access points. Are you counting your employees' home networks in your list of endpoints? Smart watches?

What kind of security is built into all these internet-connected devices? How do we identify and monitor them without deploying agents? How easy is it to control access? How do we segment them from our other networks?

Join our industry leaders as they discuss the latest technology, training, and trends for securing all endpoints—including IoT devices.
