Cybersecurity threats have been growing year on year, with 2022 seeing ransomware attacks increase by 87% against industrial organizations. If successful, these breaches can come at a high cost; ransomware extortion totaled $456.8 million in 2022, after a high of $765.6 million in 2021. But is cyber insurance the answer? Unlike other forms of insurance, cyber insurance language is not standardized, and this can lead to significant variations in policy coverage. Certain offenses, like cyber warfare, are often excluded from coverage, while individual insurers may disagree on what constitutes an approved “loss event.” Yet is it worse to be left without any protection at all? This episode will discuss: The real stakes in cybersecurity right now What comprises a robust cyber insurance policy? How the market has changed in 2023

Zero Trust is widely regarded as the best approach for protecting organizations, but implementing it is a journey rather than a one-off purchase. In this episode of the Fifth Wall of Security, Michelle Drolet, CEO & Founder of Towerwall, and Tamer Baker, Chief Technology Officer, Zscaler will talk about the adoption of Zero Trust and walk through best practices for establishing it within your company. What we'll cover: 1. Give them an inch, they'll go a mile. What is the right way to handle insiders before they become a threat? 2. User experience. How to make things seamless and non-disruptive. 3. Avoiding the "easy way" to Cloud Security. We can't just take what we have today and try and uplift that into the cloud and/or build a new zero trust environment from it. 4. Hide and Go Seek? Hide all applications from accessibility from the internet (that means not at all being reachable from the internet like we do today with DMZ's and cloud firewalls).

🚀 What takes a big hit yet is typically on the bottom of the priority list? Web Applications. Join Towerwall's CEO & Founder, Michelle Drolet, and Fortra's Josh Davies in Episode 1 of "The Fifth Wall of Security" podcast. They'll unravel: 🕷️ Web App Horror Stories 🛡️ Common Attacks 🚀 Strengthening Web App Security Strategies (without putting more work on your team)
