Building a Security program: A Look in Four Dimensions

Orca Security's Advisory CISO, Andy Ellis, captures the talk he gave at the RSA Conference 2022, with “A Look in Four Dimensions,” and what it takes to build a modern security operations program today. Always engaging, Andy covers the cybersecurity essentials, including:

✅ What France’s Maginot Line in WWII can teach us about “Width” - the first dimension of security
✅ How security basics like multi-factor authentication (MFA) can add “Height” as the next layer of defense
✅ How “Depth” of context can help detect and stop lateral movement
✅ How measurements of “Time”, like SLAs for vulnerabilities, can strengthen the overall security program

Bonus features:
✅ How to manage asset inventory in public cloud and hybrid environments
✅ Why access controls and enforcing the principle of least privilege are mission critical for cloud, multi-cloud, and hybrid environments
✅ Why cloud-native storage has the advantage over on-premise data backups
