The State of the Threat

IT organizations are increasingly doing a better job fighting off routine viruses, spam and other forms of malware. But the bad guys are getting smarter and more sophisticated as they integrate blended attacks with data mining tools developed overseas. These tools leverage botnets to seek out specific types of sensitive data. Hear from law enforcement experts about where the next cybersecurity threats are coming from so your organization can not only be forewarned, but also forearmed.

Moderator: Eileen Feretic, Executive Editor, Ziff Davis Enterprise.

Speaker: Carlos Solari, Vice President, Security Solutions, and head of Bell Labs Security Solutions Research Center; Former CIO, Executive Office of the President, the White House

Keynote Presentation
Focusing on Security from an Enterprise Perspective

Successful organizations are integrating various security layers and functions so that they can work together seamlessly, creating a comprehensive risk management strategy for the enterprise. To implement such a strategy, you must blend numerous systems, processes and technologies. You must address factors such as infrastructure preparedness, quality assurance and measurement, intrusion detection and prevention, firewalls, encryption, data integrity, document tracking, authentication, risk assessment and management, privacy protection, compliance issues and physical security.

To provide this level of protection, you must view security as an enterprise challenge— one that extends to suppliers, distributors and partners — rather than just a functional or departmental concern.

The keynote speaker will address major challenges that will define enterprise security in 2007 and will provide you with expert advice on how your company can effectively handle these problems.

Hot Button Panel 1
Developing a Security Policy and Enforcement Program

The foundation of your security program should include a set of comprehensive, well-thought-out policies that address the following issues: remote client access, user privileges, password protection, laptop encryption, privacy guidelines, e-mail and instant messaging practices, backup requirements, vulnerability assessments, and incident response and business continuity plans. You should also decide on both legal and public relations plans for dealing with a possible customer and stockholder backlash resulting from a security breach. And don’t forget to include suppliers, distributors and other business partners in your strategic plans.

This session will provide expert guidance on how you can develop a comprehensive, up-to-date security policy that deals with both strategic and tactical issues and that includes enforcement practices that detail what happens when employees fail to comply with your company’s policies.

Hot Button Panel 2
Creating Security Awareness and Education Programs

Security is the job of everyone in the enterprise, from the CEO on down. But how can you expect employees to “guard and protect” systems and information if they don’t understand the dangers and don’t know what they should do about them?

That’s where awareness and education programs — and ongoing employee communication — come into play. Such a program can play a key by creating a culture of security in your organization. However, awareness and training are pieces of a much larger puzzle, so you shouldn’t let your guard down simply because your company’s employees have been educated about the need for vigilance. Security should be a 24 x 7 obsession.

The experts on this panel will share their knowledge on this critical subject and will provide guidelines on what you should look for in a security awareness and training program.

Hot Button Panel 3
Preventing and Detecting Attacks

Attacks on computer systems come fast and furious these days, and IT managers have to be both vigilant and proactive. You must develop a comprehensive vision for dealing with spam, viruses, worms, bots and phishing, while carefully protecting networks (both wired and wireless), desktop computers, servers and data that are increasingly under siege. And don’t forget to protect company information that is routinely carried out of the office in laptops and PDAs. Finally, security strategies must reach beyond the enterprise to encompass suppliers, distributors and other partners that exchange information with your company.

Attend this panel discussion to find out about emerging threats, such as bots and war drivers, and the standards and technologies designed to combat them. These include more sophisticated network access control, mandatory laptop encryption, intrusion prevention and detection on both wired and wireless networks, anomaly-based monitoring tools, High-Assurance SSL certificates, S-HTTP and multi-factor authentication.
