Sessions
Data Encryption for Compliance and Information Governance
14 November, 2011 (09:30 AM - 10:30 AM)
Many organizations are considering the adoption of encryption solutions to protect their sensitive data. With a myriad of approaches available each with their own benefits and deployment issues, organizations need to clearly understand how to select the right solution for their needs. This session will look at.
Cloud Security: Shield or Vapor?
14 November, 2011 (01:45 PM - 02:45 PM)
We will present evaluation criteria for cloud security services; analyze whether cloud services have a good chance to be reasonably secure; and review future of security jobs: will they stay or evaporate in the cloud.
Data Protection: Is There an Easy Way Out of a PCI Audit?
14 November, 2011 (04:15 PM - 05:15 PM)
U.S. merchants spend an average of $1.7 million on becoming PCI compliant, and maintaining payment card data security requires persistent and continuous efforts. Many lessons on data protection have been learned over the past 5 years since the PCI Data Security standard was established, which can lower costs for enterprises protecting payment card or other sensitive data. This session looks at the challenges and opportunities of data protection, as learned through implementation of the PCI DSS.
The Glass House of Data Center Security: Best Practices, Trends and Technology Changes
15 November, 2011 (09:30 AM - 10:30 AM)
Modern data centers are the repositories of all we hold valuable and need to run our businesses. Web Application Firewalls? Next Generation Firewalls? Fabric Based Infrastructure? Virtualization? In this session analyst Greg Young will leave no stone unturned in presenting how access and security can and can’t be achieved and presents the ‘5 Fingers of Data Center Security Death’.
Net IT Out: Bridging Social and Technical Layers: Protecting Data and Privacy
15 November, 2011 (03:45 PM - 04:15 PM)
The challenges of privacy cannot be met solely by increased enforcement in the technical layer of the enterprise. Privacy is a social challenge and thus, meeting this challenge requires the involvement of the social layer of the enterprise. The tools at the disposal of the social layer are paltry at best. Every day our workers and partners sift through mountains of information about people. This information has been abstracted to the point that it has lost the contextual clues that the social layer operates upon. This lack of context starves the social layer and prevents it from do the right things. This session will:
Net IT Out: Enterprise Information Protection – The Reality Effect
15 November, 2011 (03:45 PM - 04:15 PM)
As enterprises have increase needs to control and locate their sensitive data of both the electronic and non-electronic formats – where it’s stored, how it’s used, and where it travels – the reality effect of how effective an organization is at protecting its sensitive data becomes more apparent. Whether due to increased regulatory compliance, a changing technology landscape, stakeholder confidence, or a plethora of other pressures, many organizations have addressed this issue tactically versus strategically as a whole. In this presentation, the audience will walk away with a high-level understanding of the following:
Net IT Out: Protecting Data and Applications From Hacker and Employee Attacks
15 November, 2011 (04:15 PM - 04:45 PM)
As attacks become more financially motivated and as organizations get better at securing their infrastructure, there has been a shift in attacks to the application level. Enterprises have also started to admit, that it is not just hackers, but also their own employees, carry most serious threats. To address new risks, new application and data security market-space has emerged.
Vulnerability Management for Emerging Threats and Technologies
16 November, 2011 (08:00 AM - 09:00 AM)
Vulnerability management needs to be extended to deal with emerging threats, and to accommodate the requirements of virtualized data centers, cloud services, and operational technology. This presentation provides advice on how to extend vulnerability management to meet new requirements.
How the Parts Fit Together: The Macro Security Markets
16 November, 2011 (10:00 AM - 11:00 AM)
There is a big security market made up of distinct parts: a patchwork of markets with different dynamics, end-users, and dynamics. This session explores the Gartner framework for these submarkets, where they are headed and how they fit together as part of your enterprise security quilt.
