On March 21st the White House issued a statement strongly urging the private sector to improve national cybersecurity based on evolving intelligence that the Russian Government is exploring possible cyberattack options.

Dan Wiley, Check Point’s Chief Security Advisor, and Jeff Schwartz, VP of Security Engineering at Check Point will discuss the very recent and disturbing trends of cyber attacks coming from Eastern Europe. Then they’ll dive into best practices and share real-world examples of how organizations are hardening their cyber defenses in light of current events. Specifically, they’ll discuss:

• Evolving attack vectors and how to protect your environment
• Hacktivist groups making false claims of cyber attacks and why that’s bad for you
• Misinformation and phishing attacks
• New forms of social engineering
