A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… the Empire was the victim of a data breach.
Wait, what?
Join members of the Identity, Privacy and Cybersecurity team to explore cybersecurity as seen through the lens of Star Wars. Insider threats, vulnerabilities, data exfiltration and more – these sometimes-nebulous cybersecurity concepts relate to plot points in Star Wars IV: A New Hope and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Discover how the Empire’s cybersecurity weaknesses led to its downfall. Learn from the Empire’s mistakes to uncover what not to do in your own environment.
Familiarity with the Star Wars movies is helpful but not required.
