BindView Security Guru Mark 'Simple Nomad' Loveless to Conduct Web Presentation.


HOUSTON -- Building enterprise security best practices to combat cyber attacks, BindView Corp. (Nasdaq:BVEW BVEW Binary View ) Senior Security Analyst Mark "Simple Nomad" Loveless will conduct an online presentation titled "Internal Security: Threat Identification and Mitigation." Loveless will highlight strategies used by hackers to infiltrate networks and cover important tactics for building and maintaining an effective IT security plan.

What:

Cyber attacks are on the rise, forcing organizations to be on alert 24x7. Attacks can range from denial of service A condition in which a system can no longer respond to normal requests. See denial of service attack.  and direct network assaults to strikes against internal vulnerabilities with small office/home office See SOHO.  installations and rogue wireless access points, servers or workstations. By developing comprehensive IT security plans and clearly defined methodologies, BindView can help customers prevent attacks from occurring.

"Hackers continue to refine their skills, so administrators must stay one-step ahead with internal security policies to circumvent attacks," said Loveless. "One of the biggest misconceptions in the industry is that firewalls are sufficient. Policy development and management, network mapping Network mapping or Internet mapping is the study of the physical connectivity of the Internet. It is not to be confused with the remote discovery of which operating system a computer is running, an activity more akin to hacking.  and credential assessment are critical elements to protecting the IT infrastructure on both sides of the firewall."
