IT360 Conference & Expo - April 7, 2010 - Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Toronto, Ontario, CANADA

Join us at IT360 Conference and Expo where Wedge Networks' President and CEO, Dr. Hongwen Zhang will be presenting the following topics:

Separation Anxiety: Ensuring Security in Cloud Computing

Over the years, businesses have invested heavily in securing their IT assets against all sorts of malicious attacks.  However, just when we think that we can settle down to simply patch holes in our fortified castle of IT security systems, a major paradigm shift begins to occur in the way IT assets are managed; they start moving into the clouds.  A recent survey conducted by Wedge Networks indicates that there is a significant gap between the level of web-based malware security that hosting companies are providing and what customers believe they are receiving.  What are the security risks that arise from moving to the clouds?  What are the best practises for enabling security in the clouds?  This speech will provide answers to these questions.

Falling Through the Cracks: Detection Accuracy without Compromising Performance - Use Cases

Web-based malware is a major and rapidly increasing problem for North American organizations.  3rd party research indicates that current strategies employed to deal with web based malware challenges are inadequate.  Many solutions currently employed are having to trade off performance for accuracy and vice versa.  Finding alternatives to increase detection accuracy without compromising network performance is critical to solving malware issues. Using cases and examples, Dr Hongwen Zhang will show how threats can be successfully neutralized and you will learn the pros and cons of existing solutions, with emphasis on how organizations are using them to combat emerging threats and current outbreaks. This session will arm you with valuable information to combat the challenge of web-based malware
