Cybersecurity

This presentation introduces Prisma Browser from Palo Alto Networks and explains how a secure enterprise browser can help protect university users, data, and web-based applications. Attendees will learn how Prisma Browser applies security controls directly at the browser level to reduce phishing risk, prevent data leakage, and provide safer access to cloud and SaaS services used for teaching, research, and administration without having to install the GlobalProtect VPN client.

This presentation provides a practical, high-level overview of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks and how our university defends critical systems, online learning platforms, and public-facing services against them. We will explain common attack methods, what an attack looks like from a campus network perspective, and how modern mitigation services are applied.

This presentation explores how to protect Linux SSH access using CyberArk’s modern access model. We’ll cover why this approach reduces risk, walk through set up and configuration with real examples, and what it looks like in practice through a live demo.
