Session Description:

As a business or technical leader, you must make information security continuously align and successfully integrate into the organizational ecosystem. Working with a great team of professionals, having implemented a security management system, or utilizing the latest tools, controls and monitoring systems will help move information security in the right direction, success is there for the ones that continuously adapt to an ever-changing business environment and to do so, it is crucial to understand, as soon as possible, future industry trends and challenges example, analysts and industry experts agree that the scalability and flexibility of cloud services will continue to drive adoption. Nevertheless, cloud customers are concerned about security as it remains a key reason why organizations hesitate to adopt cloud services despite the flexibility and scalability the cloud can offer.

The main elements of this are the worries that data could end up in the wrong hands and what control does a customer have over careless operators. But there are other concerns too: issues such as customer identity, segregation of assets on virtual servers and what happens to assets in the event of a CSP going out of business are also issues that play on potential cloud users’ minds.

What we will cover

The ISO 27001 series addresses some of these concerns and new standards and frameworks, like ISO/IEC 27017, Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) and NIST Cyber Security framework go further in providing integrated and adaptive solutions in balancing information risks with the controls in an effective manner.

By participating in our seminar you’ll learn and discuss these relevant topics in addressing security compliance frameworks and providing better solutions to client and regulatory security requirements:
