Remote Workforce Security For The Future

Exclusive Security Briefing Series by Akamai

Outline

IT teams and employees had to adapt to new ways of business overnight since the start of C-19. The demand to shift to remote working models and protecting applications and employees outside of the network perimeter came at warp speed. Today it’s fundamentally changed how IT decision-makers look at work – it’s no longer Remote Work, ‘Working from home’ – it’s just Working! 
Even before the pandemic, employees expected the highest level of security and seamless access to corporate applications. With this shift, organizations and IT professionals need to prioritize their security investments to enable and secure the future of work (whatever form it takes in the years to come). The time to implement the acceleration to the cloud and robust security models like Zero trust is now!
Akamai’s Threat Research team has put together a 4-part Security Briefing series based on our experience in securing workforce internet and internal application access for our customers, and insights from handling large-scale (fast) deployments over the past 18-months of the pandemic. 
This series brings an unbiased perspective into the most basic (often overlooked) layer of  infrastructure protection for DNS services, the latest advanced Phishing methods being deployed against employees, insights into some of the recent Ransomware attacks that made headlines, latest workflows for securing Internal (Private) Applications and Network Access and a peek into how Akamai’s Threat Intelligence Services are tuned to provide Security Operations teams accurate, real time domain intelligence to drive risk decisions about activity in their network.

Starting ground zero, I have led Zoom India's stellar growth by devising & driving country specific strategic initiatives across multiple business functions, building cross functional teams and owning key relationships. Now supported by a significant distributor - partner network, large employee count and a huge customer base spanning Government, PSU’s, Large Enterprises to Small & Medium Businesses in the country, Team India is now one of the key contributors in Zoom’s global footprint. This fascinating journey which began as a UCaaS is now headed towards CPaaS and CCaaS, WorkPlace Transformation & WorkFlow enablement focussed on employee & customer experience by leveraging Gen AI, API & SDK integrations.

Improve The Player Experience with a Responsive UI – Nov 24th, 5:00 to 6:00 PM IST

APIs have quickly emerged as a standard way of building and connecting modern applications and are essential for integrating, enabling and driving digital experiences. Modern architectures benefit orgs in a number of ways from increased developer efficiency, connectivity, improved user experience, and faster pace of innovation.

But APIs have unique challenges in the areas of Security, Performance and Reliability. Recent research has shown:

  • How to measure web page performance (are we really talking about “web pages” here? As in the site that you download from? Or are you considering key services within the application “web pages?” If so, I think we need to change the terminology. If the first important thing we say we’re talking about in this list is “web pages” we’re going to lose our audience)
  • Industry-standard metrics for user experience
  • The relationship between performance and load-balancing
  • Architectural best practices  

Join Akamai’s Pavel Despot, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Ritika Tandon Senior Solutions Engineer and Jonathan Singer, Senior Industry Marketing Manager for a perspective of the mobile games industry and how Gaming organizations can navigate this maze of architecture to win on performance and security!
