BRATISLAVA, Slovakia and SAN DIEGO, April 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ESET a global leader in digital security, today announced it will present two sessions during RSA 2023, taking place in San Francisco from April 24 to 27. With RSA bringing together the world's top cybersecurity professionals, vendors, and a growing partner ecosystem, ESET will also host channel and enterprise customer events to encourage dynamic discussions at this year's conference.

On Monday, April 24, ESET Specialized Security Researcher Cameron Camp and Chief Security Evangelist Tony Anscombe will present "We (Could Have) Cracked Open the Network for Under $100" at 9:40 AM PT – delving into new ESET research that examines corporate routers sold on the secondary market. ESET will share how companies are not following sufficient security protocols and processes for decommissioning hardware, making critical data from past owners accessible and open to abuse. Attendees to this presentation will learn about the impact on an organization, including the possible risk of data breaches that extend to partners and customers, and best practices for device sanitization.

Anscombe will also present a Birds of a Feather session, "Is Legislation and Regulation a Friend or Foe of Cyber Defenders?" on April 24, 2023, at 10:50 AM PT. With many cybersecurity regulations being proposed or levied, including the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), Executive Order on the Nation's Cybersecurity, and by various proposals by governments around the globe, this discussion will explore whether recent legislation and regulation is assisting or hampering cybersecurity teams.

"The theme of this year's RSA show is 'Stronger Together,' and we are pleased to join the cybersecurity community in San Francisco – bringing new research to the stage that helps improve cybersecurity best practices and understanding with organizations in attendance," said Anscombe. "Collaboration in cybersecurity is critical, and ESET has long been known for its investment and leadership in threat research, which spans an extensive network of researchers around the globe who protect users, businesses, critical infrastructure, and governments from new and persistent threats."

A single layer of defense is not enough in today's constantly evolving threat landscape. For 30 years, ESET has invested in multiple layers of proprietary technology that prevent breaches and protect against zero-day attacks. The company's XDR and MDR services pair with ESET's endpoint security platform to support one of the most sophisticated cybersecurity arsenals on the market. These solutions can be mixed and matched with advanced threat defense modules, including advanced sandboxing, cloud office security that protects Microsoft Office apps, full disk encryption, multifactor authentication, mail server security, and ESET cybersecurity awareness training to address the human element.
