Do you have visibility into everything that privileged users are doing on your network? The frequency of these threats is increasing and compliance regulations are changing to mandate monitoring of privileged user access. Yet most organizations can't answer "yes" to these questions. This panel discussion will focus on both the practical and regulatory aspects of effective privileged user monitoring - featuring two IT executives and a compliance expert.

The people in your organization will do whatever they have to do to be productive. And if that means that your current IT infrastructure is not conducive to helping them be productive, they will look for ways around your IT infrastructure safeguards. What does that mean? That means if their e-mail box is not large enough they will go online and find ones that are. That large file can be sent via e-mail -- they will find services and technologies to solve that issue. Can't get access to presentations and documents necessary to do that perfect sales presentation when you are remote -- they will start hosting the very same presentation and documents in a place that allows them to get to it. The iPhone and android phones are not supported by IT -- they will create proxies using home computers to push and pull e-mail from their smart devices.

The concept of security in layers takes the view that no single component can ensure the level of protection necessary to safeguard sensitive data. Instead, by leveraging the various technologies and approaches available today, organizations can implement security policies that meet regulatory requirements, and provide cost-effective controls to minimize data breaches.

Content Aware SIEM represents a new generation of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) capabilities that extend the value and benefits of SIEM by providing visibility into the contents of applications, documents and protocols.

Keeping the network secure has become a daunting proposition for most enterprises. With hundreds of firewalls and a long list of network devices, it's hard for network teams to determine where to focus efforts to keep the network secure and available to users.

There are clear benefits to a company in providing remote access to the corporate network for their employees, customers and partners. However, access to the corporate network through an extranet, remote access gateway (VPN) or Microsoft® Windows® desktop effectively opens a door to the organization's most sensitive assets, intellectual property and customer data.

The network security industry has witnessed shifts in three major areas. Compliance has gained tremendous traction as organizations are dealing with multiple regulations to mitigate the risk in data loss and application downtime. Second, the convergence of multiple security functions into products that support a single function has evolved to include policy management integration. Third, the consolidation of data center infrastructure is being driven by virtualization tools, such as cloud computing models. In this 10-minute webcast, Roark Pollock will discuss how business benefits could be undermined by rising security exposure and the complexities of today's evolving threat landscape if the right protection is not in place.

Ever stuck in a situation where you're expected to do more with less. Or have to choose among three different solutions, one each for cybersecurity, compliance and IT ops? Don't know what to do? Attend this informational webinar to learn how to convert digital fingerprints into a single pane of glass to combat cybercrime, demonstrate regulatory compliance and streamline IT operations.

Endpoint security has long been a major component in the IT security arsenal. However, the complexion of today's "workforce" and the IT environment is dramatically changing, forcing organizations to rethink the definition of an endpoint protection strategy.

Today's new business culture, with expanding corporate perimeters, ubiquitous network connectivity, and the proliferation of mobile devices, involves new security risks. Businesses must ensure that their security policies are up to date and effectively communicated to their workforces in order to enforce acceptable use and protect against data theft and hijacking. Join John N. Stewart, Cisco Vice President and Chief Security Officer, to hear his thoughts regarding current mobile workforce trends and challenges, and his recommendations on how to best secure mobile devices.
