How to Protect Your Applications in the Multi-Cloud


<p>Security practitioners have many different initiatives demanding their time: evaluating and mitigating 3rd party risk, enabling strategic business efforts, implementing zero-trust practices, and supporting compliance activities, to name just a few. Often overlooked in these initiatives is a security gap that is critical to close if any of these initiatives are to be complete.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In this presentation, Solution Architect Matthew McGuirk will present the essential facts about client-side risk and security to arm security leaders with the information they need to address this crucial problem in all of their domains of practice.</p>



<p>It is important to understand that:&nbsp;</p>



<ul><li>Client-side risk is 3rd party supply chain risk&nbsp;</li><li>Client-side security is critical to any zero-trust initiatives</li><li>Securing the client-side is absolutely fundamental to compliance with PCI DSS, GDPR and other data privacy mandates&nbsp;</li><li>Addressing the client-side actually enables the business to do more, without fear of security or compliance violations&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p>By providing an understandable, plain-language overview of the security gap that exists on essentially every website &#8212; the threat of client-side attacks &#8212; this presentation will show how this problem can be solved effectively and definitively while also bolstering key security initiatives to ensure business value and strategic alignment.</p>
