Industry Leading CISOs Outline Plans to Overcome Threat Actors

Trellix, the cybersecurity company delivering the future of extended detection and response (XDR), today announced its Ransomware Detection and Response Virtual Showcase, co-sponsored by AWS, will take place November 15 and 16, 2023.

The actionable Ransomware Detection and Response Virtual Showcase will focus on the plans, tools, and architectures needed for organizations to create robust ransomware detection and response programs to stay ahead of cybercriminals. The event builds on the ransomware insights gleaned during Trellix’s August Summit and following ransomware workshop series, diving into how organizations can regain control from threat actors and build cyber resilience with the Trellix XDR Platform.

“It’s unsurprising 86% of CISOs have managed a major cybersecurity incident at least once during their careers,” says Harold Rivas, CISO at Trellix. “Ransomware is pervasive, so implementing a solid ransomware detection and response program must be the baseline for organizations to effectively combat attackers. I am pleased to personally walk attendees through battle-tested experiences and share lessons learned.”

The event will feature industry-leading CISO insights and equip organizations with the knowledge to build and execute a successful ransomware detection and response program. Participants will also see real-world defenses in action with a deep-dive demo of the AI-powered Trellix XDR Platform.

"Credit Unions are increasingly being held accountable for their readiness to address the risks of ransomware as demonstrated by increasing cybersecurity insurance premiums,” says Jim Jenkins, VP, Information Security and ISO, Vantage West Credit Union. “The Trellix Platform plays a significant role in supporting our ransomware response strategy, specifically early detection, containment, eradication, and recovery - Trellix is a strong pillar in our overall data protection strategy."
