in the new business environment?

Today, information security is more than ever crucial, as it guarantees the competiveness and survival of any enterprise or organization that deals with digital content.

The main goal of the 2nd InfoCom Security Conference is to highlight the various risks which constitute a major threat for information security and present the current technologies, future trends and necessary strategies that need to be adopted in order to protect critical enterprise data and operations, in a rapidly changing technological environment.

The main sessions of the 2nd InfoCom Security Conference are the following

1st Session: Policies to Protect Critical Data and Applications

Important data and applications, supporting day-to-day operations, exist in every enterprise or organization and constitute the main target of any attack. Taking into consideration that in the last years, dangers and threats have been upgraded, resulting in multiple attacks every day from competent offenders, the adoption of a security policy for data and applications in every digital environment, is more crucial than ever. Every security policy should be based on the following:

• Data Loss Prevention
• End point security
• Risk Management
• Managed Services

• Disaster Recovery
• Social Engineering

The 1st session of InfoCom Security Conference will provide answers to all these queries, in theoretical as well as in practical level.
