Soldiers or Weapons? Which is most important to win a battle?
THE MODERN BUSINESS DILEMMA - SKILLED SOLDIERS OR MODERN WEAPONS TO SAFEGUARD YOUR WEB FORTRESS ?

Serious Web security breaches are a growing concern for all web users. Gartner group has stated that over 70% of cyber attacks occur at the web application layer. Another leading research agency found that 8 in 10 web portals currently have serious vulnerabilities. The severity of security breaches is increasing as companies are under pressure to cut expenses and work with smaller budgets.
|
|
Hackers behave like water; taking the path of least resistance. Many security breaches are the result of poorly tested software that allows unexpected inputs to pass and weaken Web applications security measures. Fortunately, something can be done about it in a most cost effective way. |
|
In this Webinar we will discuss the overall threat, landscape, challenges, best practices, recommendations and opportunities associated with Web security. We will also examine some popular assumptions and test the validity of each:
|
|
The Common Myth - Our Site is SAFE because...
|
 |
"We Have Firewalls in Place" |
|
"Our Web Technology is Most Up to Date" |
|
"We Use Vulnerability Scanners" |
|
"We Use SSL Encryption" |
|
"We Have DMZ in Place" |
|
|
What about these often repeated assertions?
|
|
The best promoted security tools can provide adequate ,if less than perfect protection, and are cheaper |
|
Security services generally serve the interests of customers better than tools, but are expensive |
|
With the right tools security services are an unnecessary luxury |
|
Internal network security departments are unreasonably expected to handle any web assessment |
|
|
For fresh insights, innovative perspectives, and pragmatic recommendations you will find this Webinar
worth your time! |
