Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

ADVISORY...for Wednesday (Sept. 18)

RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 16, 2002

Free Webinar Explains How Visualization Can Expose Threats Not Seen

With Standard Security Technologies

According to a recent survey by CERT (The Computer Emergency Response Team), the total number of attacks reported in 2001 shot up almost 160 percent compared with the prior year. More than 52,000 incidents--each one representing a virus outbreak, network attack or insider abuse--were reported. It is an unfortunate fact that no business can consider itself completely immune to the possibility of a security breach. Sometimes a business needs to go the extra step to mitigate internal compromise, Internet-borne threat and other malicious activity.
