Pointsec

Comprehensive Data Protection Solutions

Do you know the hundreds of ways to lose your important data? The numbers don’t lie – more than 60% of information loss is the result of lost or stolen equipment. In short, every laptop, PC, smartphone, or USB stick is a potential weak point in your security strategy – unless you have Pointsec® software.

Come to this informative keynote session to learn about the security vulnerabilities in your organization and how Pointsec offers more data protection solutions where it really matters – from full disk encryption to port management and encryption for removable media.

10:00am-10:45am Session Two

Accuvant

Walking Through Walls - Presented by Accuvant and Imperva

There is more to securing a web application than putting it behind a firewall and enabling SSL. After all, a web application by definition accepts input from any web user and inserts it into running code on your server. Because of the unique nature of many web application vulnerabilities, traditional perimeter security measures are ineffective in protecting these critical assets and require a more focused security approach.

Learn how perpetrators begin their attacks and understand how to stop them. This application hacking workshop will demonstrate how intruders can compromise custom web applications to steal data and break into systems. Accuvant and Imperva will demonstrate exploits of the following web application vulnerabilities and discuss how to make sure these problems are not present in your web applications:

  • SQL injection
  • Parameter manipulation
  • Error handling
  • Cookie tampering
  • Residual content
  • Cross site scripting
10:45am-11:30am Session Three
