Strategy to Reality

Danger zone!

The nation's leading IT security forum addresses cutting edge issues within cloud computing, risk management, compliance, emerging technology exploits and vulnerabilities, and cryptography.

WHY DANGER ZONE?
THE DANGER ZONE IS NOT LIMITED TO ONE DEFINED AREA. SOME AREAS HAVE NO BOUNDARIES. In addition to integrating a life cycle approach to securing IT infrastructure, we must begin with an awareness of the tried-and-true strategies like risk management, and compliance, as well as seek-out emerging information technologies that put us at risk.

The STRATEGY is to address successful deployment of new technology. The REALITY is you must adapt to new threats.

Strategy to Reality
addresses the issues on the cutting edge of compliance, information assurance, cloud computing security, cryptography, human capital and risk management. As CEOs, executives, managers and IT professionals, you are held accountable to a variety of information security laws and regulations and are expected to comply in a fiscally sound method. Strategy to Reality addresses how to implement the security standards necessary to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, especially when faced with new technologies.

The strategy is to address new technology deployment rather than secure last year’s systems with last year’s tools. The reality is that as new technologies are introduced and adopted, new threats will appear. The 14 Essential Body of Knowledge (EBK) domains established by the Department of Homeland Security will be addressed, along with the top security issues for 2011.

IP3 is pioneering the way in educational seminars by providing you with the most economical and advanced way to stay ahead of the most pressing security issues. By providing you with an optional upgrade to the Apple iPad2 and our Podcast Library , you can take your security resources with you anytime and anywhere!

WHY "Danger Zone"?

THE DANGER ZONE IS NOT LIMITED TO ONE DEFINED AREA. SOME AREAS HAVE NO BOUNDARIES.
In addition to integrating a life cycle approach to securing IT infrastructure, we must begin with an awareness of the tried-and-true strategies like risk management, and compliance, as well as seek-out emerging information technologies that put you at risk. There are the five main areas driving health care, government, finance, and other sectors to take action.

  • CLOUD COMPUTING—Threats, vulnerabilites, exploits, Security-as-a-Service, deploying and managing the cloud
  • RISK MANAGEMENT—Financial management of cyber risk, develop fiscally sound defense postures
  • COMPLIANCE—governance risk triad, data security standards, HIPAA, FISMA, NIST, etc.
  • EMERGING VULNERABILITIES AND EXPLOITS—new technology deployment, new threats, theft, not so ethical hackin
  • CRYPTOGRAPHY—classical goals, symmetric crypto, modes of operations, hashing, signatures, privacy concerns and attacks

During this two-day seminar for CEOs, executives, managers and IT professionals, will learn how technology, IT security threats and deployment environments have changed; even since the beginning of 2011! Our ALL NEW Strategy to Reality: Danger Zone is returning to some of the nation’s top universities with both new content and a unique approach.
