US: 2020 Cyber Threat Intelligence Briefing
February 5, 2020
Washington, DC
Speakers: Wendi Whitmore, VP Threat Intelligence, IBM Corporation and Nick Rossmann, X-Force IRIS, Lead for Global Intelligence, IBM Corporation
As Iran’s recent cyber activities demonstrate, the cyber threat landscape is dynamic – with constantly shifting actors, vulnerabilities, and potential consequences. The new decade promises to be just as—if not more—dynamic, and requires a level of intelligence and leadership both to understand and defend against potential attackers and their methodologies.
The 2020 Cyber Threat Intelligence Briefing will bring senior leaders from IBM Corporation to provide an inside look at the cyber threat landscape informed by one of the world’s most sophisticated cyber threat management programs. They will examine the depth of destructive attacks and how such attacks are increasing in number, location, and industry; the implications of the IBM ZeroCleare malware discovery used by Iran-linked adversaries and how that discovery may impact preparation and response; a preview into IBM’s X-Force Annual Cyber Threat Intelligence Report for 2020; and key insights on government ransomware attacks.
