With the explosion in security data, Big Data security analytics (BDSA) is widely acknowledged as the future of security information and event management (SIEM). But BDSA is a specialized application of Big Data. This webinar shows how BDSA is different:
- There’s more to BDSA than just “big.”
- BDSA requires real-time processing of security data.
- BDSA requires more than just Big Data technology.

Watch this video to hear what John Kindervag from Forrester Research has to say about next-generation security.

Threats are constantly mutating. Bad actors are everywhere. You could be attacked at any time from any direction. No longer are cyber attacks limited to external "hackers." All of these things makes the security professionals job much harder. To properly protect your organizations digital assets, you must transform your organization so that you can protect against all types of threats. By leveraging the concepts of Forrester's Zero Trust Network, you can build a secure network that you know is robust, agile, and able to meet the challenges of mutating threats. We call this "Knowledge-based Security". By leveraging the information, visibility, and proactive protections provided by Zero Trust, you can have the knowledge that you are providing your organization with state of the art protection.

Additionally, you’ll hear from HP’s Senior Director of Network Security Product Management, Anthony Woolf, about how HP is providing zero-trust related capabilities through the HP TippingPoint IPS and NGFW devices.

Quantifying which DNS hosts are unknown or infected is a complex undertaking. Building a Markov Model allows organizations to create data driven decisions based on calculated benchmarks to eliminate the guessing and diagnose infected hosts. Attend this webinar and see firsthand how the DVLabs organization custom builds a DNS Markov Model that allows for easier detection that will help you understand what is infected and what isn’t.

Organizations are struggling with new and more sophisticated threats, borderless networks, increased bandwidth requirements and more applications spread throughout the entire data center. A wealth of vendors are claiming to offer “next generation” security capabilities to address every security need under the sun. Cut through the nomenclature to learn what “next generation” really means and how it can actually help you meet today’s challenges head on and ignore all the hype.

Compliance and security are better together and there are tools and resources that can be combined to achieve both. Learn the top 10 tips - such as continuous monitoring, assessing the controls, and cost-effective audit logs - to understand and implement best practices of compliance and security together.

Network security is not just about eliminating bad traffic, it is also about making sure applications and critical data are always available to the right audience at the right time. The right network security architecture can provide security for physical assets, but also extend protection for virtual and cloud computing infrastructures without impacting performance. In fact, unlike in the past, a network security product should never be considered a bottleneck due to deep packet inspection, but should actually be capable of improving bandwidth and performance.

Social networking for most of us is becoming wrapped into our DNA. This is especially important for the next generation workforce. Additionally, the employees today and those of tomorrow will expect the capability to blog and social network with corporate assets and corporate bandwidth. Additionally, these technologies are being widely used for corporate marketing and communication. That is why it's important to look at all aspects of securing your infrastructure and more importantly, the people that drive your organization today. This involves educating people, corporate process and the right security technologies. The following session will cover the benefits and the security risks inherit with social networking across all business verticals. Additionally, the author will provide a use case analysis of information that is gathered via web beacons that harvest information unknowing to the user.

Vulnerabilities that exist in today’s commercial and custom software are the primary target for attackers. The most severe of these vulnerabilities are those that can result in remote code execution – that is an attacker can take complete control of another system for the purposes of stealing information, defacing property or just causing trouble. In this session, Brian Gorenc, will demonstrate how to analyze a vulnerability and the steps required to weaponize it. Centering on a vulnerability in a Microsoft application, the demo will show you how an attacker can quickly move from proof-of-concept to remote code execution. The discussion will also include thoughts on mitigation strategies for reducing risk.

Enterprise organizations have been under security attacks for the past decade, but security events in 2011 have created a ripple effect that will be felt for years to come and will actually start to shift the way we view security. This webcast will highlight the latest threat trends and risks from the new 2011 Cyber Risk Report from HP Enterprise Security and will cover:

• Why a decline in vulnerabilities disclosed may lead to a false sense of security
• How changing attack motivations are increasing security risks
• What the biggest risks to the enterprise were in 2011

In today's security environment, threats can evolve more quickly than the ability to protect against them creating a security gap for most organizations. In this webcast, Forrester Analyst John Kindervag and HP DVLabs Director Dan Holden will discuss the importance of leveraging security research and threat intelligence to help close this gap. Through ongoing relationships with dedicated security and vulnerability research organizations, security professionals can gain proactive intelligence into potential future threats and how to better protect critical networks, applications and information against them.

Security attackers are constantly upgrading their techniques to make network attacks more difficult to detect with traditional measures. The security checks required to detect all of these attacks can overload your security products, but ignoring them can significantly decrease your network bandwidth. Reputation services enhance the security of traditional network security products by blocking access to areas of the Internet that compromised and delivering attacks on unsuspecting users. This provides a number of benefits to the organization including cutting down the amount of malicious traffic that must be inspected by the network device and cutting down on unnecessary traffic that is clogging bandwidth and slowing application usage. This presentation will highlight the security and network benefits of reputation services and the elements for finding the best solution.
