Securing Your Automation Platform, Infrastructure and Processes

Abstract: Robotic process automation (RPA) has been called the fastest growing enterprise software market by Gartner.  Some companies are even pursuing strategies involving a ‘bot for every employee’.  Given the rapid growth of automation and the digital workforce, the most typically-asked questions revolve around securing the automation platform and digital workers.  Via our client discussions in the market, we have developed a set of best practices and approaches for organizations looking to adopt RPA and scale across the organization.  During this session, automation and digital workforce experts from UiPath will discuss considerations for handling access and credential management, architecture for controlling and monitoring automations and other top of mind security subjects.

Developing an Infosec Operational Dashboard

Abstract: John will share a de-identified cyber security operational dashboard used for monthly reporting.  This will offer insight for cyber security leadership and IT leadership to see what works and to hear the story of what does not.  This will also offer details for the security practitioner on what is important and what is not.  Security without measurements makes it hard to see if you are headed in the right direction.  A good dashboard can fit on one page and does not have to overwhelm the audience.
