Organizations spend a great deal of time and money securing their network perimeters from external threats. However, nearly half of the security breaches that were made public in 2005 were from insider attacks. Unless companies test their systems completely, they are leaving themselves wide open to insiders who pose a huge risk to the network's safety.

Check out this on-demand Webcast, sponsored by Core Security and PatchLink, to hear Charles Kolodgy, Research Director with leading analyst firm IDC, Chris Andrew, Vice President of Security Technologies at PatchLink, and Max Caceres, Director of Product Management at Core Security, discuss these topics and more:

  • The Security Conundrum (threats and IT deployment) and why security is challenging and requires planning, not just reaction.
  • How enterprises are trying to solve their security problems and why those options work or don't work as intended.
  • The Security and Vulnerability Management (SVM) market and how SVM helps enterprises address security problems.
  • Why patching/remediation and penetration testing are essential to the ESRM
  • Best practices and resources for testing your network for insider threats, including how to break into a Linux or Windows box within seconds.
