(60 minutes).
Are we getting better as an industry? We have NextGen firewalls, APT prevention, DLP, and technology that can solve our technological needs from hackers. Why do we continue to see an increase in data breaches if the technology is working. Let's take a look at todays technology and hack it. This talk will cover some advanced techniques used to infiltrate a number of organizations during real world penetration tests. The talk will also discuss why these technologies fail us and why the reliance has to be on a proactive security strategy versus trying to patch it with a band aid. Lets find out if we are getting better or if its the same old struggle. Hackers are here to stay, are we going to be able to withstand an attack?
