3:30 PM The Defense-in-depth Continuum and its Impact on Critical Infrastructure

By identifying, quantifying and categorizing your risks, you are better able to mitigate those risks, while increasing your security posture and improving your ROI to stakeholders.
The implementation of a robust defense-in-depth methodology can reduce the risk of data/network compromise within a critical infrastructure (CI).  Through the systematic identification, quantification , and categorization, you can determine effective mitigation strategies.  This approach allows you to effectively allocate limited resources to critical, high-impact areas.
