Topic: Global Threat Intelligence and Security Response

Dean will discuss issues such as:

  • What infrastructure does it take to run a Global Security Response Operation.
  • How has this infrastructure changed recently with rapidly evolving threats?
  • Stuxnet and the process that Symantec went through in analyzing it and delivering customer response such as preparing definitions through to Deepsight alerts?
  • What security trends are most concerning to Dean? Where will Deans team focus their attention for the next 6 months?
  • How will consumerisation of IT, mobile devices, and application oriented environments (iphone/ipad/android) change the threat landscape?
