GraniteEdge Networks Co-Founder Selected to Present at Dow Jones Network Ventures Conference
Posted on: Tuesday, 7 February 2006, 09:00 CST
GraniteEdge Networks, the leader in security analytics, announced today that the company's president and co-founder, Dr. Ross Ortega, will present at this week's Dow Jones Network Venture Conference. His presentations will be held on February 8th at 11:55 AM and 12:45 PM at the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, California.
Dr. Ortega will discuss how enterprises are adopting new security analytics products to expose, track, and respond to emerging internal network threats, by providing a strategic view of network behavior. He will also explain the value of causality analysis and how the technology automatically identifies suspicious network behaviors as they unfold by "connecting the dots" between underlying related and seemingly unrelated events. As a result, corporations can reduce the exposure and impact of "low and slow" attacks, zero-day exploits, policy violations, and a new generation of non-signature-based attacks.
A Deeper Level of Security Analytics for Internal Network Security
GraniteEdge Networks was recently mentioned in Gartner's December 2005 report, entitled "Use Network Behavior Analysis for Better Visibility Into Security and Operations Events." In this report, Gartner forecasts that by year-end 2007, 25 percent of large enterprises will employ NBA as part of their network security strategy.
"Organizations are increasingly interested in detecting unknown network activities occurring on their networks," said Paul Proctor, research vice president at Gartner. "NBA systems can be used to understand what's really going on in the network. These products are becoming increasingly popular in helping enterprises identify and respond to suspicious activity that is otherwise hard to identify with traditional intrusion detection technology."
