Special Sessions

The Top 10 Trends in Cybersecurity for 2007

Keynote Address by Stephen Northcutt

Experts agree that targeted cyber attacks will be more prevalent, in particular on government agencies. Public sector companies that support the country's critical infrastructure will be targets -- banking, stock market, telecommunications, utilities, shipping, data storage & support, and hospital systems. Do you know what types of attacks should be anticipated and what defenses and early warning systems should be deployed now?

Come hear Stephen Northcutt, President of the SANS Technology Institute, talk about the security trends that experts are predicting, and the indispensable procedures you will need in place once your organization has been targeted. Stephen is author/coauthor of Incident Handling Step-by-Step, Intrusion Signatures and Analysis, Inside Network Perimeter Security 2nd Edition, IT Ethics Handbook, SANS Security Essentials, SANS Security Leadership Essentials and Network Intrusion Detection 3rd edition. He was the original author of the Shadow Intrusion Detection System before accepting the position of Chief for Information Warfare at the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization.
