Threat Intelligence services as a key weapon in your arsenal against
an evolving cyber threat landscape

As the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions are reduced and economic activity picks up, the full impact of the pandemic on cyber security in the enterprise sector in Africa in particular, is yet to be assessed and evaluated.

Kaspersky, in partnership with ITWeb, will host a webinar where Kaspersky’s leading security researchers will present an overview of the 2020 threat landscape and share their predictions for the rest of the year and 2021.

Discover the expected cyber threat trends that will be developing post-COVID-19 in Africa and the rest of the world, the changing threats in the B2B landscape and the key pain points facing enterprises and public sector organisations amid a fast-evolving threat landscape.

This thought leadership webinar will explore how the COVID-19 pandemic has influenced the cyber threats and activities that exist today and why the concepts of threat intelligence and endpoint detection and response are necessary for businesses serious about building a solid cybersecurity strategy – a must in this digital world.

Expert speakers will explore how businesses can equip their IT security teams with the tools they need for thorough investigation, containment and response to cyber threats, based on knowledge of the tactics, techniques and procedures specific to the threat actor, and how to achieve visibility across all endpoints on the corporate network for superior defence.

You will also discover how Kaspersky’s Threat Attribution Engine can help mitigate risk by helping SOC analysts and incident responders attribute malware samples to previously revealed APT groups. Using its proprietary method, Kaspersky Threat Attribution Engine matches a discovered malicious code against one of the biggest databases of malware in the industry, and, based on the code similarities, links it to a specific APT group or campaign. This information helps security experts prioritise high-risk threats over less serious incidents.

In today’s digital world, it is not a matter of if a business will be attacked, but rather when –
and every business needs to be prepared.
