Code42 to Host Inaugural Insider Risk Summit in September 2020Code42, the leader in insider risk detection and response, today announced that it will host the inaugural Insider Risk Summit 2020 in partnership with Crowdstrike, Cybrary, Duo Security at Cisco, Exabeam, Okta, Optiv, Palo Alto (News - Alert) Networks, Rapid7, Splunk, Sumo Logic and The CyberWire. The virtual event will explore new strategies for detecting and mitigating insider threats to data and feature an impressive line-up of speakers, including cybersecurity veterans like Michael C. Theis and Chris Kubecka. The Insider Risk Summit, being held September 17, 2020, is open now for registration. "We're living in a new world shaped by digital transformation. Businesses have widely adopted cloud-based collaboration technologies to speed productivity and innovation. While these technologies are good for business, they also have introduced new security risks to data," said Code42 President and CEO Joe Payne. "As a security community, we are at an inflection point. We need to rethink how data is protected and set new standards for insider risk programs - and that is what we'll accomplish at the Insider Risk Summit." Today, industry research notes that just over 50% of organizational data breaches are the direct result of insiders, yet only 10% of security budgets are allocated to internal threats. At the same time, cloud-based collaboration, decentralized work and job turnover are on the rise, causing today's security teams to be increasingly challenged to detect and respond to insider threats. The Insider Risk Summit will connect the information security community to identify strategies and solutions for mitigating insider risks to data.

The speakers will outline key takeaways from newsworthy insider breaches, share actionable advice on how to build bettr insider threat programs and frameworks, and discuss the complex impact of imperfect humans on cybersecurity.
