The internet and the underlying IT structures are becoming more important, but also more complex. It therefore offers cyber criminals a multitude of new attack surfaces and "business models".
Phishing and spam are a thing of the past, because identity theft, fraud and industrial espionage via the internet are becoming increasingly sophisticated, professional and, above all, individualized. For example, a single attack that exploits the "trust factor" on Facebook, Twitter & Co. can compromise several million people at the same time.
There are preventive measures and solutions for all attack scenarios. However, according to studies, one in three companies still has a lot of catching up to do when it comes to adhering to IT security guidelines - so-called "IT compliance".
At the "IT-SECURITY & COMPLIANCE 2011" congress, leading manufacturers and distributors will be providing answers to the current and future challenges in IT security.
The six independent keynote speeches by top IT security experts will cover the exciting topics of mobile data, communication, cloud/infrastructure and management & compliance.
The congress series will take place on September 21 in Frankfurt/Hanau, on September 27 in Hamburg, on September 29 in Düsseldorf/Neuss and on October 4 in Munich.
