Get Your Wi-Fi Ready for the iPad

Apple has sold over 52 million iPhones and iPads in the first half of 2011. These employee-owned consumer devices are making their way to the workplace creating a new set of security and management challenges for IT departments. Aruba has developed a new solution to help customers scale their "existing" Wi-Fi network (including Cisco Wi-Fi) and IT helpdesk processes to support productivity enhancing bring-your-own-device initiatives. Aruba's clientless solution provides a mechanism to secure, provision and manage employee-owned devices while minimizing IT overhead.

Advanced Cyber Threats: Defending Against Advanced Malware, Zero Day Threats and Persistent Attacks

News of attacks from advanced cyber threats dominates the headlines. Another day, another breach… and another company loses sensitive data and intellectual property.

How is advanced malware and zero-day threats used in these attacks? And why do signature-based defenses and traditional security layers miss these stealthy, persistent threats?

Join Damballa in this session and learn how the threat landscape has changed and what you can do to improve your security posture to avoid being next week's headline.
Key topics include:

  • Why Advanced Malware is Winning
  • Steps to Defend Against These Threats
  • Hunting for Hidden Infections
  • How to Identify Advanced Malware Infections and Persistent Threats
3:30pm-4:15pm Session Eight

Onboarding Personal Devices to Corporate Networks

Many IT organizations are being asked to allow personal devices onto corporate networks.  Unlike corporate-issued devices that are well-managed and under IT’s control, this new Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) initiative introduces a unique set of security challenges that require a balance of flexibility, visibility, security.

This presentation will explain the concept of a “BYOD Blueprint” and lessons learned from onboarding personal devices to over 800 networks around the world.
