Cloud adoption has revolutionized organizations in recent years, driven by its ability to prevent data loss, enhance security through centralized management, drive resource scalability and reduce costs. Most organizations are already reaping the benefits of cloud transformation.
Along with the advantages of cloud adoption come new and evolving risks. Adversaries are growing faster and more persistent in cloud-focused attacks, exploiting security gaps such as system misconfigurations, poor identity management and software vulnerabilities. The CrowdStrike 2024 Global Threat Report highlights a 75% surge in cloud intrusions in 2023, with incidents involving cloud-conscious threat actors up 110% year-over-year. Organizations must prioritize strong cloud security measures to prevent these attacks.
CrowdStrike has emerged as a cloud security leader, providing organizations with the technology they need to protect their cloud-native applications and infrastructure as the attack surface expands. CrowdStrike Falcon® Cloud Security is a unified agent-based and agentless platform that offers deep visibility, detection and real-time response across the cloud environment while stopping threats in real time with advanced runtime protection.
At Fal.Con 2024, taking place Sept. 16-19 in Las Vegas, our cloud security track will feature 30+ sessions in which attendees can learn the latest innovations in Falcon Cloud Security and how to maximize their use of the Falcon platform, gain insight into the latest adversary intelligence, and explore key topics such as cloud detection and response, generative AI, data security, and securing cloud-native applications.
Fal.Con attendees will have the opportunity to learn the latest strategies and techniques for defending cloud environments from our panels featuring experts excited to share their insights. Those attending will also have the opportunity to share best practices and swap experiences with fellow security practitioners.
We've developed an agenda for Fal.Con that will address the cloud security topics and issues our attendees are most interested in covering, including the most pressing threats they'll face and the best strategies and methods for defending against them. Our agenda will enable you to:
We're excited to share the agenda our cloud security experts have put together. Included in the agenda are breakout sessions, hands-on workshops and CrowdStrike University training courses. Below are some of the cloud security sessions at Fal.Con 2024:
