  • Every company seeks to make the most of their data through Business Intelligence (BI). On the path to true BI, one needs to create a solid foundation. This can be obtained through data harmonization. Liaison's Alice Westerfield will explain this with Matthew Perrine through a real life case study from a leading pharmaceutical company.

    Through its robust, cloud-based platform, Liaison is helping large enterprise customers with their BI initiatives by providing a cost effective and scalable data harmonization solution that can extract data from countless systems and formats, establish a common and flexible data model, cleanse the data, enforce business rules, and apply semantic logic before the data is syndicated out to the BI repository. Liaison's solution is vendor neutral and is delivered by seasoned professionals that focus on your project from the data layer out, not at the application layer – to deliver accurate and actionable data for critical business decisions.
  • There are always new threats in Social Media out there. What are the newest social media platforms and threats associated with them?
  • Today, more organizations are seeking better alternatives to passwords, which can be forgotten, shared, cracked or stolen. At the same time, it is impractical for both users and IT to have biometric authentication solutions integrated with every application. These challenges can be effectively addressed by integrating leading biometric authentication and web single sign-on (SSO) solutions.
    Join this webcast to hear Dennis Wilcox, Vice President of International & Identity Access Management from BIO-key® and Sean Dyon, ID Director Product Manager and Manager of BIO-key’s Presales group join Aaron Berman, Solution Strategy Advisor from CA Technologies to discuss how this new, validated solution allows users to perform biometric authentication and SSO to on-premise and cloud-based web applications without the need for additional passwords.
  • Spear-phishing, watering hole attacks, drive-by downloads…these are our new realities. The user is the primary target of attack and the endpoint is our new perimeter.

    McAfee recently announced the introduction of a revolutionary new set of security controls – The Complete Endpoint Protection Suites (Enterprise & Business) – including Deep Defender, a next generation anti-rootkit technology – to link security from chip to OS to applications to provide real-time monitoring of memory and CPU. McAfee also leads innovation through technology partnerships such as the one it enjoys with Invincea – a pioneer in the use of secure virtual containers to protect the most highly targeted applications (web browsers, PDF readers, Office suite).

    When married together, these technologies provide one of the most secure endpoint environments ever seen…and you’ve got to see what this is all about.

  • In the last 10 years, hacking has become big business with a well organised infrastructure, defined roles and responsibilities, and sophisticated attack vector automation that generates large-scale attacks of unprecedented size, speed and devastation. Advanced protection is needed in order to successfully stand up to the ‘industrialisation of hacking’. In this webinar, Andy will talk about:

    - How to prevent web attacks like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, app DDoS or site scraping.

    - The limitations and vulnerabilities associated with IPS solutions and other traditional security solutions.

    - Attack-mitigation techniques for combating malware including bots and other automated attacks common in industrialised hacking.

    - How to protect networks from the ‘compromised insider’ threat.
