Manage, Control, and Audit the Use of Shared, Privileged, and Administrative Accounts
- Do you know how many privileged, shared, or generic identities exist within your IT infrastructure?
- Do you know who has access to these accounts and what they’re doing during administrative sessions?
- Are auditors requesting reports on entitlement to and usage of these identities?
The average enterprise includes thousands of privileged identities, accounts, and passwords. Manually managing and updating these is a time-consuming, costly and repetitive process. Administrative and application accounts (hard-coded, embedded credentials) can be found in network devices, servers, and software within an organization, including virtual environments, yet access to these accounts is unmonitored. Sharing of access to these accounts occurs frequently, so the system does not track WHO logged in, merely that a login occurred—a significant audit challenge.
Learn how to mitigate the risk of mismanagement of shared, privileged, and administrative accounts and how to address associated audit and compliance findings. |

Securing the Virtual World
Virtualization is part of an overall trend within IT to centralize administrative tasks while improving scalability and workloads. Questions have arisen around security within virtualized environments and if they are as safe as physical environments or even perhaps safer. This presentation addresses the challenges that are faced and how to tackle them successfully.

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.

Implementing BYOD without breaking your network or security posture
As mobile devices, like smartphones and tablets, continue to proliferate the enterprise, the demand for securing these devices is top of mind. The trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) introduces new security threats as well as the need for more network resources. If mobile device security is all you have addressed for BYOD, you are missing the boat and will have a rude awaking during implementation.
Hear from a network and security expert that has spent the last two years researching, demonstrating, proof-of-concept testing, and implementing mobility solutions as he shares some lessons learned that can help you avoid the "gotchas" of BYOD.
This presentation will inform you of the new threats to corporate environments caused by mobile devices, educate you on available solutions for protecting and preventing security breaches, enlighten you on the "missing link" in today's mobility point product solutions, and reveal the seldom planned for bumps in the road, to ensure a smooth pathway to BYOD without all the headaches.
If you are implementing, planning, or currently struggling with BYOD, this is one presentation you can't afford to miss!

Breaking the Vicious Cycle of the Malnet Threat and Botnet Infections
The Vicious Cycle of Malnets
In 2012, Blue Coat expects malware distribution infrastructures will be responsible for more than two- thirds of all malicious cyber-attacks. Malnets (malware networks) are extensive infrastructures embedded in the Internet and designed to deliver mass market attacks to the largest possible audience on a continuous basis. Hear the details of Blue Coat Systems latest 2012 Security Report and learn why stopping the attacks using traditional zero-day defenses is a losing proposition. Learn how cyber-criminals have created a vicious cycle of malware attacks and why you need new solutions in order to protect your users and break this vicious cycle. In this session you learn:
- What threat vectors are being exploited by cyber-criminals to target their attacks
- Why the 'whack-a-mole' defense strategy just doesn't work against todays attacks
- Why 'zero-day' defense is insufficient and why you need negative-day protection
- Where malnet infrastructures are located and hide and why they are nearly impossible to eradicate
