SAN FRANCISCO, CA : RSAC™ 2025 Conference has kick started from April 28 - May 1, 2025, in San Francisco at the Moscone Center. It is the 34th year, the RSA Conference has been a driving force behind the world’s cybersecurity community, bringing together thousands of professionals, practitioners, and vendors to discuss cybersecurity.
RSAC, the company behind the world’s largest and most influential cybersecurity conference, today announced its current lineup of keynote speakers for its upcoming RSAC™ 2025 Conference, taking place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco from April 28 – May 1. Notable speakers include Craigslist founder Craig Newmark, UK AI Security Institute CTO Jade Leung, and Special Assistant to the President and NSC Senior Director for Cyber Alexei Bulazel, as well as dozens of prominent cybersecurity experts, innovators, and guest speakers.
The RSA Conference 2025 has underscored a clear message: identity security must be a top priority. Strong password policies, enterprise password management, and multi-factor authentication are now foundational. Organizations should eliminate weak, reused credentials by enforcing complex, unique passwords of at least 16 characters, securely stored using enterprise-grade solutions. Regular privileged account audits and prompt removal of unused credentials can further reduce exposure.
However, preventing credential theft is just the beginning. As attackers increasingly use stolen credentials to escalate privileges and disable defenses, organizations must adopt a layered security strategy—integrating zero trust, least-privilege access, and robust privileged access management (PAM).
PAM plays a critical role in limiting lateral movement and securing access to essential systems, making persistence significantly harder for adversaries. In tandem with strong identity controls, enterprises must bolster defenses through endpoint protection, employee education on phishing and social engineering, and strong data encryption and backup practices.
To stay ahead of evolving threats, security leaders must reduce the attack surface, prioritize zero-trust architecture, and enforce proactive identity and endpoint security. As RSA Conference wraps up in San Francisco, the key takeaway is clear: mastering cybersecurity fundamentals remains the strongest defense.
