Virtualization, cloud computing, hybrid environments and BYOD are here to stay. When implemented successfully, these solutions can transform the way businesses operate and lower the OPEX and CAPEX costs of IT departments. However, these major IT trends cannot be considered separately: virtualization and cloud are often linked, and needs for anytime anywhere connectivity and mobile workforce enablement won't wait. This is why it's essential to have a holistic approach and address the business, technology and financial implications of today for tomorrow's needs.

The Lazy Attacker: Defending Against Broad-based Cyber Attacks with Unified & Collaborative Defenses

Advanced Persistent Attacks (APTs) get most of the attention from the cyber security community because, as defenders, we want to be vigilant against the most insidious techniques. However, this unilateral mindset ignores a much less interesting reality. Generally, cyber criminals are as lazy as criminals in the “real world.” What do we mean by lazy? Attackers will use the “lowest common denominator” method against the widest range of IP addresses from the same source set of IP addresses - which means that sharing information about their methods with others, and implementing simple defenses are best practices.

Adjusting your focus from the “shiny object” of APTs to those broad-based threats can help prioritize your own defenses and optimize your incident response program. Attend this webinar to hear directly from Jaime Blasco, Director of AlienVault Labs, on how you can:

* Understand the common exploit methods of the “lazy attacker”
* Review the benefits of a collaborative approach to threat intelligence
* Prioritize defensive tactics and remediation activities
* Implement a unified, simplified approach to threat management

Software Defined Storage. Is it just another buzzword or can the concept bring meaningful change to the way storage is acquired, implemented and used? As vendors race to jump on the "software defined" bandwagon, Storage Switzerland set out to explain the term, provide users with an understanding of how software defined storage can solve many of their current storage challenges and provide a way to decide which vendors are really delivering a software defined storage future.
