Cybersecurity: How to Protect World-Class Teaching and Learning
Cybersecurity is always top of mind in education, but the unprecedented targeting and sophistication of evolving threats has many institutional leaders wondering whether implementing the same security strategies can deliver results that today’s campuses need. Join Tom Dugas, assistant vice president and chief information security officer for Duquesne University, and Greg Kovich of Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise for a lively discussion that explores defense-in-depth, Zero Trust, and traditional Moat/Castle security architectures; identifies the benefits; and helps you understand how your network infrastructure can incorporate all of these strategies to enable microsegmentation (LAN and Wi-Fi), access control through automated policies, reduced device vulnerability, use of analytics for proactive management, and integration synergies (LAN switch and firewall).
