New Techniques to Address Computer Security Threats
Blair Semple, Network Appliance
With data breaches making headlines and with new and growing threats coming from disgruntled insiders, viruses/worms, corporate espionage, cyber-terrorism, and information warfare, there is a heightened concern over information assurance. Today, largely invisible enemies launch daily attacks on nearly every major corporation and government agency, and rapidly adapt their tactics to address countermeasures. As the threat model evolves, traditional "perimeter" security measures are no longer adequate to protect sensitive information. It's time for enterprises to consider a number of time-tested techniques and principles to prepare for such electronic warfare. This session will present the newest techniques that help address evolving computer security threats.
