Event Overview
Protecting universities and colleges from cybersecurity threats can be difficult since these mini-cities are data-rich environments with sometimes decentralized and silo-ed systems, budget issues, and other unique challenges.

As higher education institutions migrate more services and applications to the cloud, adversaries have shifted their focus to exploit a broader attack surface. From vulnerability exploitation to credential theft, attackers are going after any weak points that allow them to compromise the ever-growing amount of critical business data and applications hosted in the cloud. 

We will share insights into today’s threat landscape for higher ed, top cloud security threats, cloud vulnerabilities, and best practices to address them.

Learning Outcomes
 - Discover the adversary and threat landscape for education
 - Understand common cloud security challenges
 - Combat and mitigate the rise of cloud security threats
