Latest innovations in cyber and data protection on show at ICE

Attendees can view the latest product launches designed to mitigate cyber threats when the event opens its doors at London’s Olympia from 28-29 September. Live and immersive experiences will provide first-hand experiences of simulated cyber attacks.

With a global shift towards hybrid working, IT and information security teams have been tasked with managing and securing devices and IT estates at scale as businesses move to a more distributed working model.

Against this backdrop, PointWire will showcase its product Tanium: the “first and only” enterprise platform that empowers security and IT operations teams with real-time visibility and control for unified endpoint management, even across the largest global networks.

Tanium’s patented linear-chain architecture “transcends the inherent limitations” of hub and spoke architectures by decentralising management intelligence directly on to individual endpoints to eliminate and mitigate vulnerabilities and business risk.

Enhancing data protection

Safeguarding data is now a serious issue for organisations, with many including privacy filters as a mandatory part of their IT data security plan.

To cater for this, 3M will be showcasing its full Privacy Filter range for monitors, laptops, tablets and smart phones. 3M’s advanced microlouver technology blacks out unwanted side views, while in parallel ensuring a crisp, clean image when directly in front of the screen.

For companies or organisations looking to increase the protection of personal data in the cloud, Boxcryptor will be showcasing its new Boxcryptor for Microsoft Teams encryption software. This allows end users to collaborate securely, while also being compliant with internal and external regulations.

Boxcryptor’s end-to-end encryption with zero knowledge paradigm makes sure that only the company – and not Microsoft or any unauthorised third parties – can encrypt and protect their data and sensitive information.

Security awareness

Recently named Cyber Innovator of the Year 2021 by techUK, ThinkCyber will be showcasing its real-time approach to security awareness. Its Redflags solution applies behavioural and learning science to deliver real-time, context-aware security awareness to help businesses and employees alike make informed decisions.

It highlights simple and actionable advice and exploits social proof as well as real and relevant examples to increase motivation among users to help meet business compliance goals. It’s “the only solution” that offers real-time and context aware security interventions proven to deliver measurable and secure behaviour change.

Claiming to ‘take enterprise cyber security to the next level’, Exeon will showcase its ExeonTrace Network Detection and Response platform. Based on powerful and proven Artificial Intelligence algorithms, the platform provides complete visibility of network data flows and allows for the automatic detection of suspicious behaviour to efficiently support security teams in responding to dormant and active threats.

The product leverages existing infrastructure without requiring additional sensors or agents, thereby giving the user a fuller picture, making deployment and maintenance easy and ensuring great scalability.

After being named a finalist for the product development category at the UK Business Awards 2021, iSTORM is set to launch a brand new product at this year’s International Cyber Expo. Focusing its efforts on a new and intuitive way to deliver and report on penetration testing and security audits, the product is designed to highlight the key assets at risk and provides trend analysis, allowing a more proactive approach towards vulnerability management.

Identifying security vulnerabilities

Census Labs will have a wide range of solutions on display at Olympia including its specialist software security services to help businesses build and maintain a Secure Software Development Lifecycle (S-SDLC).

These services range from consulting and training on Secure SDLC procedures through to security audits on the deliverables of each SDLC phase.

The company will also be showcasing its Security Testing Services which examine all components of an IT and OT infrastructure against publicly known, but also previously undisclosed (ie ‘zero day’) vulnerabilities and attack vectors, without causing any disruption to the target organisation's processes.

Immersive experience

In addition to innovation from first class exhibitors, Cyber Griffin will provide an immersive experience through its award-winning tabletop exercise designed to explore the decisions that people make to protect their businesses from modern day threats.

This role-playing game tests people’s responses to both hacking and malware attacks, in addition to physical security threats. Through this interactive feature, visitors to the event are able to see first-hand how cyber security can affect an organisation’s turnover, reputation and associated regulatory fines as well as benefit from current National Cyber Security Centre and Cyber Griffin security guidance.

Detective Dave Blight of the City of London Police stated: “From SMEs to large corporations, our award-winning tabletop exercise is an engaging way to highlight how security decisions can impact businesses. We’re thrilled to bring this activity to attendees of the very first International Cyber Expo.”

Blight continued: “About 80% of the cyber crime reported in the City of London is from businesses. A robust and intelligent approach to cyber security is of paramount importance for all security professionals. We’re confident that Cyber Griffin’s presence at the show will help visitors access the very best advice to protect themselves and the businesses for whom they work.”

Cyber Prism

Further to this, CrisisCast will take attendees behind the scenes to demonstrate the real-life workings of a cyber attack through a highly immersive, dramatised demonstration featuring Cyber Prism. It will show attendees precisely why it’s vital to have cyber protection measures in place both preventatively and in the heat of the moment, as well as the importance of ensuring all key decision-makers are aware of the measures and how to use them to defend their organisation in the face of a live attack.

Encouraged to adopt an interactive and theatrical approach towards understanding the psychology and motivating factors behind an attack, visitors can watch this gripping scenario unfold and discover the steps businesses can take to reduce risk in the human element of IT, detect incoming threats and gain invaluable insights from leading cyber security providers.
