With today’s ever-evolving threat landscape, advanced security is not enough to prevent attacks on your users and infrastructure. You need capabilities in place to help you respond rapidly to threats that may breach your defenses. To avoid serious and widespread damage, you need to prevent as much as you can and detect and respond quickly if a threat breaks through. The efficiency of XDR allows resource-constrained security teams to do more with less.
Join Antoine Saikaley as he leads this interactive conversation focused on:
- How XDR delivers on data correlation needed to tell the full story of an attack
- What the pragmatic differences are with XDR in the real world
- How this aligns with MITRE ATT&CK

Executive Presence for Lasting Leadership
Chris Ulrich
Body Language Expert & Political Consultant
Guest Speaker
Any given gesture -a nod, a point of the finger - unconsciously communicates powerful ideas and feelings that have tangible consequences. Top executives are generally proficient in their ability to interact with others, but the stakes are raised during high-level negotiations, reporting to the board, inspiring and empowering senior managers or dealing with tricky internal matters. This is especially challenging in a highly remote environment.
Join body language expert Chris Ulrich as he shares:
- Why every movement and action is magnified in high-level situations
- Tools and techniques to build rapport quickly
- How executives can communicate more effectively
