The sights and sounds of Kaspersky Lab at RSA 2018

We are excited to be joining the best security minds in the world again later this month at RSA Conference 2018. We have some exciting announcements planned for the show (TBA), and three of our cybersec experts will be speaking at the event. A summary of each of the talks follows: We urge you to mark them on your calendars.

Leaking ads — is user data truly secure?

April 17, 2018, from 2:15 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. PST

Moscone South Room 208

Come hear Roman Unuchek, senior malware analyst at Kaspersky Lab, discuss app security. Roman will elaborate on our recent finding that applications made with the help of several popular advertising software development kits (SDKs) are transmitting user data unencrypted by HTTP and often fail to protect such data. See examples of how well-known apps can contain third-party code with security issues and learn how to ensure data safety moving forward.

Behind the scenes of an advanced cyberincident: APT corporate communications case study

April 18, 2018, from 8:00 a.m. – 8:45 a.m. PST

Moscone West Room 2022

Povel Torudd, global head of corporate communications, CSO department, will give attendees a glimpse into the lessons Kaspersky Lab’s corporate communications team learned from Duqu2, the highly sophisticated APT found inside the company’s network in 2015. The incident, and the lead up to announcing it publicly, presented the corporate communications team with a completely new challenge — and set a new standard for how the company communicates securely.

April 18, 2018, from 2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. PST

The Marriott in The Sandbox, CHV Stage

No longer just electromechanical vehicles, many modern cars are now connected, bringing new challenges to the world of security. Learn more about how newer technologies such as remote diagnostics, telematics, and infotainment create risk for the industry — and how new cybersecurity techniques can improve car safety.
