First Open XDR Summit Is a Resounding Success
Open XDR Users, Service Providers and Cybersecurity Thought Leaders Met in San Francisco to Share Real-World Experiences
The two-day event was packed with a broad range of business and technical Open XDR use case discussions, including:
Russ Kaurloto, Vice Chancellor and CIO at the University of Denver, spoke about risk vs. cost, and how to build progressive resiliency into a security stack.
Ravi Puvvala, VP Partnerships, HARMAN Automotive, discussed the dynamics of an IP fleet of automobiles and vehicle components (like audio systems), and how Open XDR helps take asset management to a new level by centrally managing and assessing risks across many mobile assets.
Jeremy Rasmussen, Chief Technology Officer, Abacode, discussed moving from rules-based SIEMs to automated and ML-driven XDR thinking, and how hurdles are removed for mass industry adoption.
In addition to these popular keynote addresses, the Open XDR Summit also featured a roving reporter who captured attendees’ feedback about the key security trends and issues that Open XDR addresses today. All Summit content is available on the Open XDR Summit website at https://openxdrsummit.org/.
“There’s a lot of hype surrounding XDR, and we were thrilled to connect with other Open XDR users to discuss real-world outcomes being delivered today, as well as the exciting potential for the future.” said Joe Morin, CEO of CyFlare.
XDR is the industry’s promise to revolutionize threat detection and incident response capabilities, by unifying multiple security products into a centrally managed platform. Open XDR gives users the freedom to choose best in class technologies while protecting the investment they already have made in their existing security tools. The global XDR market is expected to expand to $2.06 billion by 2028.
