How to Secure Your Digital Assets in the Era of Cyber War (October, 16)

High-Tech Bridge Annual Conference

Date:	16 October 2012
Venue:	Crowne Plaza Hotel, Geneva, Switzerland

Businesses of all sizes are embracing new approaches to IT (such as cloud computing, virtualisation, BYOD and BPO), making them more and more dependent upon their IT infrastructure. This dynamic IT environment stimulates hackers, and organisations face increasingly targeted and sophisticated attacks. The attackers range from individual "hacktivists" to organised crime rings and totalitarian nation-states. Many hackers are highly organised and skilled.

Despite the prevalence of firewalls, IDS/IPS, encryption and other security measures, many organisations continue to fall victim to hacking attacks due to configuration errors or inadequate security solutions. As a result, companies are beginning to recognise the importance of regular security audits, because human experience and analysis are essential to the maintenance of a strong network security perimeter.

To raise awareness of the threat facing all types of organisations, High-Tech Bridge organises its annual conference entitled "How to Secure Your Digital Assets in the Era of Cyber War". The conference will take place on Tuesday, 16 October 2012, at Crowne Plaza Hotel, Geneva.

Frost & Sullivan Principal Alexander Michael will be speaking at the conference with the following presentation: "Ethical Hacking: Why it is a Business Investment, not a Cost".
