Comprehensive End-Point Security Solutions

Do you know the hundreds of ways your organization's important data can be lost? The numbers don't lie - more than 60% of information loss is due to the
result of lost or stolen equipment. Because of this, every laptop, PC, smartphone, or USB memory device is a potential weak point in your organization's security
strategy.

Come to this informative keynote session to learn about workstation security vulnerabilities in your organization and how you can deploy data protection solutions where it really matters - at the end-point. Learn how multi-factor authentication, full disk encryption, port management and encryption for removable media can all contribute to a more secure and safer workstation
environment for your organization.

NAC and Beyond: The Future of Network Security Policy Enforcement

Network Access Control, or NAC, has been touted as the latest must-have security technology in the Enterprise. NAC has been presented as an effective solution to address the threat from vulnerable endpoints connecting to the network, but does it go far enough to protect the network in the face of the dissolving perimeter and increasingly mobile work forces? In this presentation we will examine the scope of security that NAC provides, practical considerations for deployment and available approaches and technologies.

Disruptive Applications Are Bypassing Your Firewall

It's true. Unwanted network traffic and potential security threats associated with applications you've never heard of are very likely passing through your firewall right now! How can that be?

The simple answer is that your firewall associates specific traffic with specific ports, an approach that used to work quite well. But now there's a new generation of Internet applications that simply don't behave that way.
Instead, they find creative ways to target different ports, bypass your security policies, and penetrate your network.

The solution to this problem starts with visibility - not just of ports and protocols, but of specific applications. Only then can you apply the policies needed to control these applications in a way that's best for your
organization.
