Self-Defending Hosts: From Science Fiction to Reality

Self-Defending Hosts: From Science Fiction to Reality

Why: The concept of self-defending hosts has existed for over a decade. What was once a science fiction-like dream, is becoming increasingly real. Advances in the field of host security include deep packet inspection, and come in response to new attacks that routinely bypass perimeter defenses, targeting weaknesses in operating systems, servers and applications. And as these applications continue to evolve using the latest in Web 2.0 technologies, even more critical vulnerabilities will be exposed and exploited. Learn about the latest threats, and the developments in host-based security that are allowing public and private sector enterprises to shield their mission critical systems.
