Heads Up - Virtual Event Preview: Cloud & Data Security Summit – Tackling Exposed Attack Surfaces in the Cloud

#1692363: Heads Up - Virtual Event Preview: Cloud & Data Security Summit – Tackling Exposed Attack Surfaces in the Cloud

Description:	As organizations double down on digital transformation and cloud-first strategies, securing dynamic and complex cloud environments has become one of the foremost challenges in modern cybersecurity. SecurityWeek’s Cloud & Data Summit returns this year with renewed urgency and a deliberate focus on one of today’s most critical concerns: exposed attack surfaces and weaknesses in public cloud infrastructure. This free, online event brings together leading experts, practitioners, and innovators for a full day of insightful discussions and tactical guidance on evolving threats and real-world defense strategies in cloud security. The summit will spotlight a broad range of cloud security topics—from DevSecOps and data protection to AI-powered threats and identity security, reflecting the expanding complexity of the cloud threat landscape. Sessions Include: From Code to Cloud: Embedding Security in Every Step – Explore how DevSecOps principles can be deeply integrated across the entire software development lifecycle—from developer environments to production deployments. Learn how to harden your CI/CD pipeline and implement seamless, scalable cloud-native security. (Presented by Siri Varma Vegiraju, Security Tech Lead at Microsoft Azure Security) DSPM: Discover and Protect Your Sensitive Data in the Cloud– Misconfigured storage and exposed databases continue to plague cloud deployments. Learn how Wiz’s DSPM solution provides visibility into sensitive data exposure and enforces continuous compliance and risk mitigation. (Snegha Ramnarayanan, Wiz) New Threats in AI App Development: Securing Models, Data, and Pipelines – AI workloads present new vulnerabilities that traditional tools miss. From data leakage to poisoned models, this session dives into cutting-edge research and actionable strategies to secure the full AI development pipeline. (Yotam Ben-Ezra, Palo Alto Networks) AI-Powered Identity Fraud: What You’re Up Against – Attackers are now wielding AI to automate and escalate identity fraud—from deepfake impersonation to advanced phishing. This session explores emerging adversarial AI trends and offers a roadmap for securing identities in a post-AI world. (Maya Ogranovitch Scott and Adam Preis, Ping Identity) Secure Identity. Secure Everything – With identity now the primary attack vector behind over 80% of breaches, this talk offers a deep dive into real-time remediation, visibility, and securing service accounts in the cloud era. (Alexandria Hodgson, Okta) Elevate Your Business Continuity to the Cloud – Ransomware, corruption, and misconfigurations threaten workloads everywhere—on-prem, SaaS, or public cloud. Discover how HPE Zerto Software delivers robust cyber resilience, cloud-based disaster recovery, and SaaS backup solutions. (Anthony Dutra, Technical Marketing Manager at HPE Zerto) Cloud Conversations: A Fireside Chat with Forrest Brazeal and Rubrik – Cloud thought leader Forrest Brazeal joins Joe Hladik of Rubrik Zero Labs for an engaging discussion on the future of data protection in hybrid and multi-cloud environments—blending storytelling, expert analysis, and practical wisdom. Beyond the Sessions: A Fully Immersive Virtual Experience In addition to thought-provoking content, the summit is hosted on a cutting-edge virtual platform designed to foster real-time interaction and networking. Attendees can: Engage directly with speakers during live Q&A sessions Connect with sponsors and vendors to explore the latest tools and technologies Visit interactive sponsor booths and product demo zones Mingle in networking lounges to exchange ideas with fellow cloud security professionals This is more than a webinar—it’s a complete virtual experience tailored to help you grow your cloud security knowledge, connect with the community, and discover solutions that can make a tangible impact. Who Should Attend? Cloud Security Engineers & Architects CISOs & Security Executives DevOps & DevSecOps Teams AI/ML Engineers Data Protection and Compliance Officers IT and Security Operations Professionals
