Reveal Your Application Flows with Security Intelligence [ANSB1167BCN]
Security Intelligence reveals your network traffic flows in a matter of minutes. Without the need for installing agents, deploying a TAP or making any network configuration change, you get immediate deep visibility on your network flows and you can review your security posture. In this session, you will see how Security Intelligence avoids any blind spot and provides layer-7 information and OS processes context. We will show you how to leverage clustering, labels or filters in the graphical user interface so you can manage your flows view at scale. Finally, we will demonstrate how Security Intelligence can analyze traffic patterns and detects suspicious network activity, which is a key element for network detection and response.

The Conman of the Digital Era: Ransomware [ANSB1217BCN]
Ransomware, the modern-day conman, is a boardroom conversation. Protecting your business from the conman is everyone’s responsibility—not just your security team—because the conman doesn’t just knock on your security team’s door; he knocks on your door, too. The conman’s attacks are notoriously hard to detect because they are surprisingly simple yet unsuspecting. With access to ChatGPT, the conman is more powerful than ever. The purpose of this session is to teach you how the conman thinks and what you can do about it. This session will dissect a ransomware attack from the conman’s perspective, using VMware vDefend to illuminate strategies to thwart these threats before they cause harm. Whether you’re a seasoned security professional or an IT enthusiast, this session will equip you with the knowledge to combat the conman of the digital age.
