Presentation Abstract:
Endpoint Security 2.0: The Emerging Role of Application Whitelisting Solutions. Traditional endpoint security solutions are becoming less effective against the constantly changing threats of today. Anti-virus, anti-adware, host IPS, and other solutions have been defeated by skilled attackers and insider threats. This session will review the limitations of current generation products and present new technologies being developed by the security industry—most notably application whitelisting solutions--that can address the ever changing threats organizations face.
