Free “Simplify PKI 2021” Virtual Cybersecurity Summit Runs March 10-11

  • Mar 05, 2021

Next week, AppViewX is hosting a free virtual cybersecurity summit, Simplify PKI 2021, a first-of-its-kind industry online event features insightful sessions from Gartner, Forrester, Google and other industry experts in the growing CCoE movement for next-gen certificate and key lifecycle automation and machine identity management. The free online event is slated for March 10-11.

Session subjects include certificate lifecycle management (CLM), automation, public key infrastructure (PKI), machine identity and critical industry trends. Simplify PKI 2021 is sponsored by AppViewX, a leader in certificate and key lifecycle automation, IoT and DevOps security solutions as well as machine identity management.

The explosive growth of hardware, hybrid cloud, apps and IoT environments need a new approach to the management of certificates and crypto keys where IT automation and workflows can help. More CIOs are turning to full lifecycle machine identity management platforms to drive intelligent automation in large, complex, multivendor certificate environments and diverse use cases like on-premises, IoT/IIoT, DevOps, and the hybrid cloud. By establishing automated processes, IT departments can ensure visibility, reporting, governance, and compliance consistently through their enterprise.

“Security operations teams and CISOs should always be ready to expect the unexpected – and rapidly scale to adapt,” said Gregory Webb, CEO, AppViewX. “Unrelenting attacks on enterprise networks are the new norm, so enterprises must bolster security to manage risk and operations to ensure trust and security. This can’t be done with outdated tools, processes or without the right maturity model for true, next-gen crypto agility. That’s what our inaugural Simplify PKI 2021 summit is for; to learn how.”

Speakers and sessions at Simplify PKI 2021 will examine trends around machine identity, CLM and PKI, and provide interaction for attendees to share, discuss and find ways to manage multiple certificates and keys in hybrid environments. Speakers include:

  • David Anthony Mahdi, Senior Director Analyst, Gartner
  • Sean Ryan, Senior Analyst Serving Security & Risk Professionals, Forrester
  • Anoosh Saboori, Product Manager, Cloud Security Platform, Google
  • Ivan Skowronski, Lead of Cybersecurity Architecture Team, Telecom Argentina

    Organizations are increasingly turning their attention to human-focused security approaches, as two out of three (68%) cybersecurity incidents involve people. Threat actors are shifting from targeting networks and systems to hacking humans via social engineering methods, living off human errors as their most prevalent attack vector. Whether manipulated or not, human cyber behavior is leveraged to gain backdoor access into systems.
