Webinar

Attacking and Defending a Distributed Workforce


Tuesday, May 21, 2020

11:00 AM - 12:00 PM PDT

60 minutes, including Q&A


Moving to a more distributed workforce changes the risk profile for a company, opens up new attack vectors, and places new burdens on those trying to defend the enterprise. A distributed workforce also changes day to day business interactions at both technical and operational levels.

In this webcast, Tom Steele, Zach Lanier, and Michael Robbins discuss these risks from both attacker and defender perspectives, and how their tools, techniques, and controls have evolved with the changing workforce landscape.
