Theme : “The Dynamic Security Ecosystem’ .
The ecosystem of digital technology is in constant flux with an ever-growing set of devices and servers, communication channels, platforms, apps, etc., thus increasing the attack surface for cyber criminals. The security response to these challenges must evolve quickly and effectively to provide robust protection at the multifarious layers. At AVAR 2018 we’re seeking to explore the nature of these challenges and the countermeasures to tackle them.
