Description
In an ever-increasing threat landscape, today s volatile economy has added more to the myriad challenges faced by IT security chiefs. As companies look to cut costs and expose themselves to lower employee morale the risk of internal security breaches elevates. With job insecurity and stress levels on the increase, distracted or disgruntled employees may be the root cause of information security failures. Amidst global uncertainty companies are recognising the need to demonstrate trustworthiness to key stakeholders and maintain critical functions that drive revenue two very valid reasons for protecting business-critical information. And while security management budgets will not evaporate under the pressure, the business case for them will have to be made more clearly and it may take longer for them to be approved while risk calculations are carefully scrutinised.
As in an oxymoron, innovation also presents another setback for IT security both in updating IT systems for the next must-have electronic device and in defending against the sophistication of cyber criminals. All these challenges, demand new investments and solution provider partners that will ensure infrastructure and technologies are kept safe.
The 9th Annual SecurIT Summit 2010 offers the perfect setting for sponsors to present their products and services directly to key IT security decision makers. Over three days, sponsors will meet and interact with Europe s chief IT security executives through a number of business one-to-one meetings and many networking activities. In addition, sponsors will attend the strategic summit sessions led by the most prominent thinkers and practitioners in the information security community.
