Website Threats: It’s Not All About the Hacker Anymore

Mike Smart, Senior Manager, Products and Solutions, Symantec
Website Security Series Part 3

The external threat landscape is evolving; web-based malware and legitimate website hacking is continuing to fluctuate as we learn and adapt our network defence strategies, or externalise our infrastructure to mitigate risk. However, do these initiatives around protection extend to our customers? 
Every organisation has a web presence and increasingly this presence is not just for broadcasting corporate brands and products; it is used to collect and socialise personal information from customers and constituents and process regulated financial transactions.

In this session Symantec will discuss:
- Top threats that target customer identities
- How the Trust model of SSL has survived the last 18 months
- Why the Internet’s top brands are moving to Always-On SSL
- Why not all SSL certificate infrastructures are created equal and how this can influence business growth
- How to manage an expanding cryptography infrastructure effectively

Mike Smart is the Senior Manager of International Product and Solutions at Symantec.
In his role, Mike is responsible for driving Symantec’s Trust Services business across International and emerging markets. He joined Symantec in 2012 from SafeNet where he was Director of Products and Solutions in EMEA.
Mike has a strong history in the SMB and Enterprise IT Security arena and has been at the forefront of introducing new technologies and solutions to the market in areas such as Cloud Security Solutions, Information Leakage Detection and Prevention and Unified Threat Management. Mike is an active member of the UK’s Get Safe Online not-for-profit organisation which provides a leading source of unbiased, authoritative information on protection against fraud, identity theft, viruses and many other problems encountered online.

  • Is your Data Secure from Prying Eyes? Recorded: Dec 5 2012 43 mins
    Synopsis:
    Trust is a fundamental currency on the web. In a virtual world, where you never know for sure who is controlling the website you are viewing or consuming the information you are sharing, meaningful interaction is impossible without high levels of trust. Increasingly, as cybercriminals have become more sophisticated in setting up spoof phishing sites to fool users into handing over personal details and passwords, sites need more than standard certificates to engender trust. Andrew will discuss different threats and how businesses and consumers can protect themselves in an ever changing online world.

  • Reducing Risks Through Effective Certificate Management Recorded: Jun 20 2012 43 mins
    During this panel discussion Mike Smart and Dave Corbett will discuss the impact of an unmanaged certificate infrastructure. In a world where Encryption is mandated as the primary mechanism to protect information flowing around our organizations and to our customers, the effective management of the infrastructure behind this is critical. Consequences of bad management practices can include business interruption, loss of revenues not to mention the damage to the brand.
