Andrew Klaus (Cybera)

The need for new and improved cybersecurity practices within the education sector has never been stronger. As part of a new cross-Canada Post-Secondary initiative, Cybera is deploying an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) system. In doing so, we’ve discovered a few surprises within our system — mis-configurations, bots on the prowl, and malware, just to name a few.

In this session, we will demonstrate how we integrated the IDS into a simple organization and a more complex organization. We will share some of the challenges and considerations of deploying an IDS. We’ll also review some of the events we discovered and how we addressed them, and provide ideas on what schools can do in their systems to uncover similar risks.
