Featured Keynote Sessions

--  "The Changing Face of Cybercrime" -- Alan Paller, founder and research
    Director of the SANS Institute, will provide an overview of how cyber
    criminals attack systems, what they are after and how their methods are
    changing. Mr. Paller will outline new attack vectors and the most promising
    techniques for defending systems against them.

--  "Social Engineering: The Most Common Threat to Your Organization" --
    Ira Winkler, president of the Internet Security Advisors Group and noted
    author, will examine the emergence of social engineering as one of the most
    prolific enterprise security threats. Mr. Winkler will use his own cases of
    social engineering and human intelligence collection to demonstrate how he
    took over banks and compromised some of the largest companies in the world.
    He will also offer sound strategies to guard against the social engineering
    threat.

--  "Streamlining Compliance to Policies Using Open Standards Platform" --
    Tony Sager, chief of the National Security Agency's (NSA) Vulnerability
    Analysis and Operations Group, will highlight some of the ways that the NSA
    -- in cooperation with many partners -- is translating vulnerability
    knowledge into countermeasures and solutions that scale across the entire
    community. This includes the development and release of security guidance
    through the NSA public Web site and sponsorship of a number of community
    events. It also includes support for development of open standards
    for vulnerability information, and joint sponsorship of the Information
    Security Automation Program (ISAP) to help security professionals automate
    security compliance and manage vulnerabilities.

--  "Data Protection Initiatives: Will the Mandates Hurt or Help
    Enterprises?" -- Roger Cressey, president and founder of the Good Harbor
    Group and current on-air counterterrorism analyst for NBC News, will
    discuss some key initiatives being reviewed by the U.S. government to curb
    cybercrime, what these initiatives entail and whether the mandates would
    hinder business continuity or better protect critical data from loss and
    theft.  Cressey will also delve into how businesses need to adopt stronger
    corporate governance to better secure systems and information to avoid
    costly incidents.

--  "Security 3.0: Are You Ready for the Next Wave?" -- Victor Wheatman,
    managing vice president with Gartner Research, will discuss how the
    traditional, reactive approach to security is no longer the most affective
    means of protection against today's increasingly sophisticated attacks. Mr.
    Wheatman will present "security 3.0" as the next leap in evolution of the
    security program to meet boardroom concerns of protecting customer data,
    minimizing risks to the business bottom line and reducing the cost of
    demonstrating compliance to an increasing number of regulations.

--  "End Point Protection: Where Do We Go from Here?" -- Eric Maiwald,
    vice president and service director with the Burton Group, will highlight
    the flaws in traditional, complex endpoint security, including the
    drawbacks of a reactive, blacklisting approach. Mr. Maiwald will outline
    how changes in business and user behavior limit the available options, and
    introduce the "positive security model" as an alternative approach. He
    will also point out some of the ramifications of a positive security
    approach and the tradeoffs involved.
