Cyber security for broadcasters

David Meltzer – CTO, TripWire History confirms when it comes to cyber security that one particular pattern always holds. Disconnected systems start to become connected together, and over time these move from proprietary little known protocols to open standards, leading to a proliferation of new applications and uses. Soon these systems are not secure. New vulnerabilities are discovered then security is retrofitted back in. This session reveals how this pattern occurred, and how to apply the lessons learned from other industries to build resilent, secure environments in IP-connected broadcast systems.

Cyber Security Hygiene in IP Broadcast Systems

With the adoption of IP Systems in the broadcast arena, cyber security must be built in from the start with consideration to future security threats. In this presentation Denis Onuoha (Chief Information Security Officer, Arqiva) aims to dispel the myth that IP Systems are complex to secure and explores basic steps that can be built-in for securing the broadcast chain. Technical and Process controls are discussed that can aid in the reduction of the attack surface. Denis explores the build, operate and maintain lifecycle. Most of the well-publicised attacks that have occurred in the industry have one thing in common which is lack of basic controls and poor users awareness, once these topics are addressed the impact of a cyber-attack will be significantly reduced.

Creative collaboration: the way forward

By now it is well-known that moving media and entertainment operations to the cloud – all or in part – can yield big benefits in terms of cost, accessibility, and scalability, but there’s another big reason the cloud is so great: It’s the perfect environment for collaboration.
