The Raleigh ISSA, organized by the Raleigh chapter of the Information Systems Security Association (ISSA), is an important event that brings together experts in information security to discuss the latest trends and strategies. As a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing information security practices, the ISSA provides valuable insights into the challenges and solutions faced by today’s cybersecurity professionals.
Kurt Wassersug at the Raleigh ISSA Leadership Panel
It was fantastic to see Kurt Wassersug, the VP of Sales at Sepio, participate in the Raleigh ISSA Leadership Panel. During the panel, Kurt highlighted the crucial role of asset management in cybersecurity, particularly the importance of utilizing physical layer visibility as a data source for identifying hardware assets. This approach offers a non-intrusive way to detect hardware vulnerabilities without the need to monitor traffic, making it a valuable strategy in today’s complex cybersecurity environment.
This method not only enhances security but also aligns well with the Zero Trust security model. In a Zero Trust framework, trust is never assumed; every user, device, or system is continuously verified before accessing resources. By leveraging physical layer visibility to identify hardware assets, organizations can strengthen their security posture, ensuring that unauthorized access or compromised devices are swiftly detected and mitigated.
The Importance of Asset Risk Management (ARM) in Cybersecurity
At Sepio, we understand that asset risk management is crucial to safeguarding your organization’s IT infrastructure. Our approach to Asset Risk Management (ARM) stands out due to its focus on comprehensive asset visibility, which is essential for effective risk mitigation. In an increasingly dynamic and often uncontrolled digital landscape, organizations face the challenge of managing assets spread across various locations, with some known and others unknown.
