Gain an understanding of how your business can protect its data assets on-premises and in the cloud.
Because the work-from-home movement and migration to cloud architecture has dramatically altered and increased the threat surface of business data networks, corporate boards and their CISOs need to reevaluate their data network security policies, procedures and approach to meet evolving security threats. Relying on an on-prem approach could unwittingly place valuable data assets at risk. This topic is intended to review the people, processes, and technology that can mitigate that risk.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to define how a business can protect its data assets on premises and in the cloud.
- You will be able to describe Identification and Authorization (IAM) policies and procedures.
- You will be able to discuss use of Cloud Storage, e.g. OneDrive®, Google Drive™, iCloud®, etc.
