Title: "Attaining 'Security Currency': Operational, Risk, and Cost
Efficiency Approaches to Patch Management"
Abstract: This panel will provide an overview of patch management
technologies and I/T processes. It will challenge patch management
vendors to explain how to handle troublesome issues like scale,
complexity, reliability, integrity, and service level agreements;
and discuss how well they reduce expenses, mitigate risk, and
improve efficiency.
Why: "With patching still only a small portion of the overall
vulnerabilities found in network environments today (approximately
35% according to Gartner), companies using traditional patch
management solutions are only resolving a small part of the
problem," said Carl Banzhof, CTO, Citadel Security Software. "We
see the market moving toward a holistic approach to vulnerability
management that integrates with companies' current processes and
combines existing and new technologies to remediate and protect
against all classes of vulnerabilities."
