Tom Janetscheck - Cloud Security Posture Management with Azure Security Center

Even with big investments in threat detection across the security industry, studies show that bad security hygiene is still the number one reason organizations get compromised. Meaning, visibility and control over your cloud workloads’ security posture is an imperative measure to reduce the likelihood of attackers exploiting misconfigurations and known vulnerabilities in your environment.
In this session, we’ll demonstrate how to utilize Azure Security Center (ASC) to provide visibility and control over different workloads in Azure. From preventative remediation of security recommendations to the utilization of secure score as your main KPI to drive security posture management. Learn about ASC threat detection options as well as the ASC capabilities to address the Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) scenarios.
