Session

What I learnt about automating security

By 2025 there will be an estimated 3.5 million cyber security jobs open globally. This is up from 1 million in 2014. This is a problem that will impact most organisations globally as they struggle to find qualified talent to manage their daily cyber security operations as well as engage in projects and product development.

Cyber Security can be often delegated as 'someone else's problem' much like you don't think it will be your house broken into or your belongings being stolen, sadly this being a priority often too late, usually after an incident occurs and remediation after the activity is needed.

To combat this, I wanted to investigate what an organisation can do to automate as many security functions as possible to supplement staff, not replace and lighten the workload of already beleaguered security teams. This session will describe what I have found, what is working, and where the short falls are. The session will cover as many broad aspects as possible of an organisations IT operations and projects life cycles including systems and application development. Building and managing infrastructure as well as the humans that rely on these systems.

This session won't be a deep dive in any one area, it will be a bird's eye view of end-to-end cyber security for a business.
