Topic: Changing Lens of Information Protection
With the introduction of new, game-changing technologies such as cloud computing and virtualization - as well as increased data portability and growing regulatory complexity- the quality and integrity of corporate information plays a critical role in an organization's success. If it is lost, stolen, or its integrity compromised, the damage to an organization's reputation and revenue stream could be irreparable. An information protection program no longer looks static; it has necessarily become dynamic, even fluid. Information protection is moving beyond the traditional view of security at the perimeter level toward a more strategic focus on protection at the data level. Information protection is on the cusp of an evolutionary era that has the potential to redefine the culture, strategy, and function of IT within an organization to one that is aligned with business objectives and requirements to drive business value.

Topic: "Do you know what is going on in your network?"
How to manage the network, when everybody is trying to hide something from you? Mal ware applications and viruses coming from outside and hiding in. Employees running secretly services that are forbidden. ISPs aggregate their services to save money. This presentation is about solving all these issues and save money on the way. It is about control without violation of your employees privacy and without any interference with your network infrastructure.
