It’s hard to believe, but October is almost here, which means Machine Identity Security Summit 2024 is right around the corner!
We’re so excited to see you in Boston for this year’s lineup of “wicked smaaht” speakers from The Home Depot, Kraft Heinz, Navy Federal Credit Union, USAA and many more. This Oct. 1-3, they’re all stepping into the spotlight in Boston to help do one thing: revolutionize your enterprise.
How?
By forging a new era of cybersecurity—with identity at its core.
Machines are driving daily life. Technologies like AI, quantum and cloud native are dominating business landscapes, magnifying complexity, and machine identity security is how we will safeguard the future of our world.
But we can’t do that with any old conventional approach.
No, the identity-first future will be built on a foundation of modern machine identity security. And that’s exactly what this year’s event is all about.
See how you can prepare for the future of machine identity security in our action-packed agenda. To save you time, here are 5 reasons you don’t want to miss a moment of it.
Fortify your infrastructure today for victory tomorrow
With 2024’s trend-setting agenda, you’ll get the insights you need to succeed in a vibrant future where identity underpins every aspect of security.
This year’s lineup will dive deep on:
- Supercharged developers facilitated by AI and open source code
- Cloud native computing and workload identity complexity
- 90-day TLS certificates and the vital need for automation
- Post-quantum cryptography threatens digital trust
Let’s look at each in more detail.
Supercharged developers facilitated by AI and open source code
91% of security pros are concerned about developers using AI to generate code, stating over-dependence, declining code quality, poisoning attacks, and complexity as the top challenges.
It all begs the question: Is 1000x DevOps productivity really worth 1000x the risk?
And how can InfoSec mitigate CI/CD threats if developers are moving at warp speed?
We’ll cover these issues, as well as key strategies for reducing risk, at Machine Identity Security Summit 2024.
Look for these sessions in the agenda:
- Identity is the Key to Supply Chain Security
- Industry Insights on Machine Identity Security Trends and Best Practices
- CISO Panel: Forging the New Era of Cybersecurity and Machine Identity Security
Cloud native computing and workload identity complexity
75% of security pros believe that the speed and complexity of Kubernetes and containers are creating new security blind spots.
To evolve quickly and maximize competitive advantages, companies are moving toward highly scalable, flexible and resilient applications. Kubernetes provides these capabilities and more, but teams are realizing that these benefits come with challenges in certificate management, compliance and workload identity governance.
To learn how to reinforce your cloud-first infrastructure, attend these sessions:
- Securing Kubernetes Workload Identities with Compliant PKI and Governance
- Surviving the Brave New World of Multi-Cloud, Multi-Mesh, Multi-Identity
- Building Standards into Your Workload Identity Framework
90-day TLS certificates and the vital need for automation
73% of security pros believe that shortening TLS certificate lifespans from 398 days to 90 days will cause chaos.
There’s no way around it. Certificate lifespans are getting shorter. To keep your enterprise ahead of the curve, you need a comprehensive, automated certificate management program that systematically aligns your people, processes and technologies. That way, your teams can do their jobs efficiently, without introducing unneeded risk to the business.
Don’t miss these 90-day and automation-focused sessions:
- Why Automation is Critical for 90-day Certificates
- U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Approach to Self-Service and Device Automation
- Comprehensively Securing the Certificate Management Process, End-to-End
Post-quantum cryptography threatens digital trust
67% of security pros think shifting to post-quantum cryptography will be a nightmare.
Quantum computers will one day have the potential to break traditional cryptography like RSA and ECC encryption, leaving your otherwise secure data vulnerable to attack and theft. And although this scenario is still a few years off, the time to prepare is now.
Join these sessions for practical insights on a seamless post-quantum migration:
- PQC Timelines Are Accelerating: Are You Ready for Post-Quantum Threats?
- Modernizing PKI to Prepare for Post-Quantum Cryptography
- Securing Machine Identities in the Quantum Computing Era
