Cyber crime poses a substantial threat to enterprise security today. Targeted attacks that leverage advanced malware and network-based command-and-control to commit fraud and steal intellectual property, corporate secrets and customer data are evading even the best anti-malware solutions. To combat the complexity of these attacks, it is imperative that organizations take the appropriate steps to protect their network with a new breed of solutions specifically designed to continuously improve network security posture.

Attendees will learn how to:

• Gain end-to-end network visibility
• Detect and terminate botnet breaches and advanced persistent threats
• Integrate Damballa's botnet solution with Lancope's StealthWatch System to identify and eliminate modern botnets and APTs
