   Never trust, always verify, monitor! Zero Trust in an Application-Centric World – Mariusz Sawczuk, Solutions Engineer at F5
   Today, applications can reside nearly anywhere: SaaS apps, cloud-based apps and on-premises apps. Currently companies have complex and disparate authentication schemes, consisting of multiple vendors and technologies, providing access to these "located everywhere" applications. Therefore, seamless secure application access is difficult. Zero Trust is a different thing for a different people, but among other things it introduces a new remote access to remote apps architecture. During this session we will cover F5 approach to Zero Trust architecture - Identity Aware Proxy (IAP).

   How does F5 DDoS really work? - Sven Mueller, Solutions Architect at F5
   Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks threaten businesses with downtime that can be damaging to their brand and reputation and even lead to financial losses. With the many IoT device-powered botnets and “for-hire” DDoS services, the threat and complexity of an attack is now greater than ever before. Whether volumetric, computational or application mimicking in nature the common goal of these attacks is to make your application or network unavailable. Your network, DNS, and TLS are not often thought of as being a part of an application. Yet, DoS or DDoS attacks against these tiers can render your networks, applications, or other supporting infrastructure inaccessible. HTTP(S) DDoS application attacks are highly sophisticated in terms of mitigation. The real challenge is to identify and successfully block attackers’ requests whilst still allowing legitimate traffic. Join this webinar to understand why Networks/DNS floods are difficult to mitigate successfully, and get a principal understanding of F5's Network/DNS DDoS layers. Moreover, learn how to protect your business by configuring F5's L3/4 DNS DDoS multi-layer protection
