WHO: Elan Amir, president and CEO for Bivio Networks(R), the
leader in high-performance network appliance platforms for
delivery of deep packet processing applications, will
present a session titled "Preparing for Emerging Threats in
the Network: A New Approach in the Networking Platform" at
the LinuxWorld Conference & Expo in San Francisco.
Dr. Amir's session will take place on Thursday, August 17,
2006 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Moscone Center in
Room 308, Session S9.
WHAT: During Thursday's session on emerging networking threats,
Amir will discuss how networking today has evolved from a
simple switching and routing medium, requiring little
processing beyond the packet header, to a policy enforcement
engine requiring deep-packet inspection and real-time
content processing. He will highlight how today's network
has been transformed to protect against continually
emerging threats, as well as for the delivery of new
services. Amir will discuss how open source, and Linux in
particular, is causing a fundamental technology shift in
networking and as a result, has created the inevitable
combination of unique opportunity and challenges.
As part of this session, Amir will further define the
characteristics of today's Software-Driven Network in
relation to security application development, including
Linux's role in this type of network; explore the
requirements for powering processing-intensive networking
applications; and finally, present how vendors can bring to
market optimal products quickly and affordably.
