Wuhan, Hubei ChinaThe incorporation of e-based solutions in all areas of business has merits especially in today's networked knowledge economy. However, too many companies and initiatives fail to realize the promised potential. We only need look at the productivity paradox or the digital divide both of which continue to increase. We must ask ourselves why technology is not the silver bullet and what else must accompany web based solutions in order to ensure success. The solutions lie in analyzing the technology conundrum and the underlying dynamics of the current complex global environment in which business is conducted. What are the tools, techniques, strategies and protocols we must embrace in order to realize the full potential of technology in business operations. Methodology using case study, field study, survey or lab experiment is especially welcome.

- WhatWorks in Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking Summit 2008
-
May 31, 2008 - Jun 9, 2008,
Paris Hotel 3655 Las Vegas Blvd So. Las Vegas, Nevada United States 89109Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking - To secure their infrastructure and meet compliance requirements, enterprises increasingly rely on comprehensive penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. Various regulations, the Payment Card Industry standards, and basic due diligence require finding security flaws through the use of assessment and penetration testing methods before malicious attackers find them. But, without skilled personnel, a professional and repeatable process, and trustworthy tools, penetration testing is a shot in the dark and could be dangerous to enterprise operations. The SANS Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking Summit brings together industry leaders to help enterprises get the most out of their penetration testing. We'll discuss the latest processes and technologies for effective vulnerability discovery and remediation throughout an enterprise. In a series of highly interactive sessions, expert penetration testers and enterprise personnel will share lessons learned from the trenches with the goal of helping others improve their testing operations. Detailed Q&A sessions will let attendees grill the experts to get deep into policy, process, and technical aspects of testing. Several case studies will illustrate best practices as well as techniques to avoid. Vendor shoot-outs provide an opportunity to ask hard questions to determine which tools best meet business and technical requirements. Whether your organization performs penetration testing in-house or relies on third-party testing companies, this SANS Summit will help you maximize the value of your testing budget.
What Will You Learn at the Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking Summit?
1.Methods for ensuring comprehensive, repeatable tests and assessments.
2.Real-world testing techniques from industry-recognized experts to find vulnerabilities while minimizing the chance of disruption of target systems.
3.Details about products and free tools that should be on your short list for use in effective penetration testing and vulnerability assessments.
4.An understanding of the various components of comprehensive testing, including network and web application analysis.
5.Lessons learned from tests in large- and medium-scale environments.
6.Practices of penetration testing pioneers that push the envelope in developing new tools and techniques for finding flaws.
7.Current trends in malicious attacks and how our penetration testing processes must adapt based on them.

- SANS WhatWorks in Web Application Security Summit
-
May 31, 2008 - Jun 9, 2008,
Paris Hotel 3655 Las Vegas Blvd So. Las Vegas, Nevada United States 89109Lessons from the Pioneers: Finding and Eliminating Security Flaws in Web and other Applications.
Organizations will share the lessons learned in their application security initiatives. Case studies in application security initiatives will be presented and dozens of questions will be answered.
Organizations that deploy web applications are facing a massive escalation in attacks by organized crime groups from Eastern Europe and Asia. Beginning two years ago, these criminal groups targeted applications instead of operating systems, because they discovered that around 70% of all web applications had security flaws...and now 80% of new malware is focused on the application layer. Applications have become the easier attack target. With that change, the criminals added a new security challenge—not only must corporations and schools and governments ensure secure configuration and effective patch management, now they must also ensure the applications they deploy have no security flaws. The SANS WhatWorks in Application Security Summit 2008 brings together the pioneers who have already faced the application security problem. If you are spending or about to spend a lot of money and want to make sure the investment actually improves security these are real users who can tell you what works and what doesn’t.
The only place to get...deep, dark secrets from the best minds in the world. Tough lessons from real enterprises...what really works (and what doesn’t). Hands-on experience with top vendors...answers to the hard questions. - full details
