Dell Technologies is thrilled to announce our participation in Black Hat USA 2024, the premier global information security event, August 7 and 8 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. As a leader in cybersecurity solutions, Dell takes security very seriously. We embed security capabilities into every solution we build and are dedicated to empowering organizations to defend against ever-evolving cyber threats. This year, we are excited to showcase our security strategy aimed at helping customers to reduce the attack surface, enhance threat detection and response and ensure swift recovery from cyber incidents.
Reducing the Attack Surface
In today’s digital landscape, reducing the attack surface is a critical component of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy. With the proliferation of devices, applications and networks, the potential entry points for attackers have increased exponentially. Dell’s solutions are designed to minimize these vulnerabilities through robust endpoint protection, secure access controls and advanced threat prevention mechanisms.
Endpoint Protection: Dell has most of the industry’s most secure commercial PCs¹, and our endpoint security solutions provide multiple layers of defense, including anti-malware, intrusion prevention and application control. By securing endpoints, we help prevent attackers from gaining a foothold in your network.
Secure Access Controls: Implementing strong access controls is essential to limit unauthorized access. Dell’s identity and access management (IAM) solutions ensure that only authorized users can access critical systems and data, significantly reducing the risk of breaches.
Threat Prevention: Utilizing advanced threat prevention technologies, Dell’s solutions help to detect and block malicious activities before they can cause harm. This includes real-time threat intelligence, machine learning-based anomaly detection and behavior analysis.
Detection and Response to Cyber Threats: Despite best efforts to reduce the attack surface, some threats inevitably penetrate defenses. Rapid detection and response are crucial for mitigating the impact of these breaches. Dell’s integrated detection and response solutions provide organizations with the tools they need to quickly identify and neutralize threats.
Advanced Threat Detection: Leveraging AI/ML, threat detection systems can identify sophisticated attacks that traditional security measures may miss. By continuously analyzing network traffic, user behavior and system activity, we help detect anomalies that could indicate a breach.
Incident Response: When a threat is detected, swift action is necessary to contain and eliminate it. Dell’s incident response services offer immediate support from our team of cybersecurity experts. We work closely with your organization to investigate incidents, mitigate damage and restore normal operations.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM): Our SIEM solutions aggregate and analyze security events from across your network, providing comprehensive visibility into potential threats. This centralized approach allows for faster detection and more effective response to security incidents.
Recovering from Cyber Attacks: While prevention and detection are vital, organizations must also be prepared to recover from cyberattacks. Dell’s recovery solutions ensure that your business can quickly bounce back from disruptions, minimizing downtime and data loss.
Data Backup and Recovery: Regular data backups are essential for protecting against data loss. Dell’s backup solutions offer automated, secure backups that can be quickly restored in the event of an attack. Our solutions support a variety of environments, including on-premises, cloud and hybrid setups.
Disaster Recovery Planning: Having a robust disaster recovery plan in place is crucial for ensuring business continuity. Dell’s experts can help you develop and implement a comprehensive disaster recovery strategy tailored to your organization’s needs. This includes risk assessments, recovery objectives, and regular testing to ensure readiness.
Incident Recovery Retainer: Our Incident Recovery Retainer service provides organizations with pre-defined hours of recovery assistance, ensuring that expert help is available when you need it most. This proactive approach not only helps with immediate recovery efforts but also strengthens your overall resilience against future attacks.
We invite you to visit Dell Technologies next week at Booth 2168 during Black Hat 2024 – August 7 and 8 – to learn more about our cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions. Our team of experts will be on hand to provide live demonstrations, answer your questions and discuss how we can help your organization achieve a robust security posture.
In addition to our booth activities, Dell will be hosting a series of informative sessions and workshops on key cybersecurity topics. These sessions will cover best practices for reducing the attack surface, effective threat detection and response strategies and how to ensure swift recovery from cyber incidents. Don’t miss the opportunity to gain valuable insights from industry leaders and network with other cybersecurity professionals.
Black Hat 2024 promises to be an exciting event and we look forward to sharing our latest innovations with you. Together, we can build a safer, more secure digital world.
