When Tinfoil Hats Aren't Enough: Effective Defenses Against Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) > Download Presentation
You probably know about the threat posed by APTs. You also may know that most experts will tell you that there are no cost-effective ways to completely prevent a determined attacker from getting into your systems. So what to do? Since returning to an agrarian society is likely not a viable option, this presentation will cover common APT techniques and ways to detect those techniques in action and rapidly react. We'll talk about how to leverage the Identity-powered enterprise to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of prevention, detection, and response.

Investment in People is the Key to a Security Organization Built for Change > Download Presentation
According to Forrester Research, 51% of organizations say it’s a challenge or major challenge to hire and keep security staff with the right skills. This becomes especially challenging in a constantly changing organization managing acquisitions, changing business objectives, and rapid growth. While investing in security technology is important to stay ahead of threats, failure to invest properly in your people can introduce systemic and cultural risk that can be more challenging to manage than technical threats. This presentation will discuss the keys to not only getting the best people, but keeping them. Mr. Lenoe will share Adobe’s experiences in managing this very challenging problem along with what we have learned as we have built up our security organization to adapt to our cloud-focused future.

Secrets to Achieving End-to-End Email Security > Read Summary
Securing your infrastructure is essential in protecting your customers, but malicious attacks can affect users without even entering your network. The Anti-Phishing Working Group reported 72,758 phishing attacks targeting more than 700 institutions worldwide during the first half of 2013 alone. As Verizon's Data Breach Report shows, 95% of all data breaches begin with a phishing email — evidence that comprehensive ecosystem visibility, email intelligence, and real-time alerting and reporting are imperative to thwarting these attacks. Join our conversation to take a deep dive into advanced email security methodology and learn best practices to achieving end-to-end email security in order to protect your customers and enable business.

Using Security Intelligence for a Competitive Advantage > Read Summary
Harnessing the power of analytics is nothing new for today’s enterprise IT organizations. The same practices can be put to work for security — analyzing vast quantities of data to find the types of clues and irregularities that could signal an attack. This approach to security analytics is becoming a central aspect of enterprise security as organizations learn they must extend far beyond the traditional perimeter approach to gain complete visibility across the IT infrastructure in order to detect and disrupt attacks. Join the conversation to learn more about this shifting approach to security and why mining Big Data for clues to enable enterprise security action can give you a competitive advantage.

Cyber Security Legislation: What CISOs Should Know > Read Summary
Never before has information security been such a globally visible and divisive issue. Cyber attacks by foreign nations, significant national security leaks, and our increasing reliance on technology to run both business and government have spawned Washington to create a cyber security framework to protect the nation’s critical infrastructure. But the proposed legislation is complex and cumbersome, but with a divided Congress there is no guarantee if or when a final version will ultimately be passed into law. Will new legislation have substantial impact on existing policies and procedures? How can CISOs prepare in advance? Join the conversation to discover what every CISO should know about cyber security legislation.
