The use of Generative AI apps in the enterprise continues to grow monthly and the increase in sensitive data being posted to apps and services continues to increase. So what is the answer?

Whilst the average enterprise is currently responsible for around 348 TBs of data, the message is clear; this will increase considerably over a short period of time.

Join this session with Forcepoint to hear about:

– The real-life challenge of “data everywhere”

– The many channels responsible for data loss

– Why data sensitivity can reduce the ROI on your other assets

– How you can mitigate risk when the target is constantly moving

Phill Toms, SASE & Zero Trust Specialist EMEA, Cloudflare

As enterprise threats proliferate in type and scope, phishing threats maintain their position as a top concern for organizations of all sizes. Phishing attacks have grown in sophistication, so much so that traditional approaches to email security are no longer sufficient to prevent the most dangerous attacks – those designed specifically to target particular organizations as well as individual users. A recent Cloudflare-commissioned global Forrester Consulting survey found that, while firms are largely unprepared for phishing threats that engage users across various communication and collaboration channels, platforms that support a Zero Trust approach enable security decision-makers to minimize the risk of user exploitation, improve business resiliency, and strengthen customer trust and brand reputation. In this session with Phil, you\’ll learn more about the survey results and how organisations are leveraging Zero Trust to combat multichannel phishing threats.
