Weak security can lead to breaches\, data theft\, and operational disruption. This audit program evaluates endpoint security controls to protect confidentiality\, integrity\, and availability of information assets. It offers flexibility for comprehensive or targeted audits based on institutional needs. Key risk areas include malware\, unpatched software\, access management\, data exfiltration\, inadequate monitoring\, device loss\, phishing\, shadow IT\, BYOD/BYOC\, open-source tools\, and IoT. Addressing these ensures resilience against traditional and emerging cyber threats. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter attending this webinar\, participants will be able to…\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the importance of endpoint security in higher education.\n\n\n\nIdentify common endpoint risks and vulnerabilities.\n\n\n\nAssess the effectiveness of endpoint security controls.\n\n\n\nApply flexible audit methodologies based on institutional needs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDelivery Method: Group InternetField of Study: Information TechnologyAdvance Preparation: MaterialsPrerequisites are required: NoCost: $25 for non-membersRecommended CPEs: 1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nResources\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHost Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMayur Patel\n\n\n\nDirector\, IT Audit \n\n\n\nColumbia University \n\n\n\n\n\nI am a senior technology and risk executive with over 20 years of experience leading enterprise technology\, cybersecurity\, and governance functions across higher education\, financial services\, and publicly traded organizations.
