Abstract

The past few years have seen the threat landscape for Information Security evolve significantly. Information has become the most valuable asset for organizations even as it has become increasingly borderless and dispersed with cloud, mobility and virtualization now widely adopted across the globe. The challenge of securing this information continues to rise as adversaries become sophisticated and the cost of attacks rise. Blurring boundaries between consumer and business, recent attacks are demonstrating weaknesses in our ability to secure data, financial information and critical infrastructure.

Future trends such the Internet of Things and Software Defined Data Centers will bring new attack surfaces into play. Today’s keynote by Shantanu Ghosh, VP Data Center Security & MD of Symantec’s India Product Operations highlights the opportunities and risks inherent to the digital economy while underscoring the need for unified security. He will provide his thoughts on how to adequately defend information against today’s most advanced threats and confidently adopt new technologies and platforms of the future.
