Bit9 Free Webcast-Enhancing Security Through a Trust-based Approach
WALTHAM, Mass. --(Business Wire)--
Bit9,
the global leader in Advanced
Threat Protection, will present the free webcast "Enhancing
Security Through a Trust-based Approach" on Tuesday, December 4,
2012, at 9:00 a.m. EST / 2:00 p.m. GMT. Fran Howarth, senior analyst,
security for Bloor Research, will explain how at a time when
cyberthreats are becoming more insidious and affecting organizations of
all types and sizes, advanced weapons are required to stop these
advanced threats, which evade detection by traditional security
solutions.
"Application control and whitelisting technologies provide the advanced
weapons needed to counter advanced threat," said Howarth. "They can be
used to ensure that only trusted applications can be run on the network,
blocking all other applications from executing. Thus, they are highly
effective at preventing malware infections and data exfiltration,
especially when all systems are continuously monitored in real time. By
allowing only what is known to be good to run, trust is returned to the
security equation and an organization will be in a much stronger
position to protect its sensitive information from the risks posed by
sophisticated cyberthreats."
