Last minute notice but if you are interested, ISSA is presenting a talk on Securing the User PC. There is no fee for this meeting. The meeting is Today, Thurs Jan. 9, from 3:00 to 5:00 at CNF - 2055 NW Savier Street, Portland. Details below. Kim Overview Stolen data accounts for 66% of all financial losses caused by attacks on corporate networks, according to the 2002 CSI/FBI Computer Crime and Security survey. These custom-coded, targeted hacker attacks are the most damaging and costly security breaches, affecting reputation, customer relationships, and brand. Remote Access and VPN users are most vulnerable to these attacks, as encrypted tunnels and authentication alone are not enough. Legacy security technologies such as anti-virus, intrusion detection, and perimeter firewalls also cannot eliminate these risks. This presentation focuses on the increasing threats towards stealing corporate data and the best security defenses for securing the enterprise laptop/desktop user. Speaker Jessie Indracusin, Sr. Systems Engineer at Zone Labs, has been focused on networking and enterprise security for the past 8 years. His experiences include network design/implementation, system administration, project management, and consulting. Industry experiences include manufacturing, high technology, and financial bank institutions.
