According to recent reports, 81% of hacking-related breaches leverage stolen or weak passwords. This is consistent with other breaches that have hit the Asia Pacific region in recent years. Singapore Health, Cathay Pacific and the Australian Parliament are just recent examples of how unprotected privilege credentials can be exploited to gain access to sensitive data.

Privileged accounts and credentials are the most commonly targeted point of entry for cybercriminals, and the risk surface is growing significantly. With the development of hybrid infrastructures, virtualisation, and cloud, there are more privileged accounts than ever for attackers to target. Asia Pacific is a significant target for cyber threats due to its geographical region and hub for global commerce.

Taking place in Singapore and Melbourne, the "Privileged Access Forum: Defending Against Targeted Attacks" are designed for business and technical drivers of the cybersecurity program within government and enterprise organisations. With a dynamic mix of plenary sessions and interactive panel discussions, these half-day conferences will offer you the opportunity to hear from prominent industry experts and exchange best practices with fellow IT security professionals from across industries.

Registrations are by-invitation only and are kindly limited to government and corporate teams currently tasked with working in information security or information technology.
