News of attacks from zero-day threats dominates the headlines. Another day, another breach… and another company loses sensitive data. How is advanced malware used in these attacks? And why do signature-based defenses and traditional security layers miss these stealthy, persistent threats? In this webcast, learn how the threat landscape has changed and what you can do to improve your security posture and avoid being next week's headline.

News of targeted attacks dominate the headlines. Ever since the first firewall was deployed, criminals have found new and more creative ways to evade the various layers of security defenses. In this webcast, learn how the threat landscape has changed and what you can do to improve your security posture and avoid being next week's headline.
Advanced Malware, APTs and Targeted Attacks
It seems like there are new headlines of high profile breaches every week. Many are attributing these breaches to advanced malware and targeted attacks that are bypassing traditional front-line defenses. What's different about these stealthy threats? How do they infiltrate networks?
Join Damballa for this webcast and discover what's changed in today's advanced malware that makes them persistent and undetectable to signature-based defenses. See how the infection lifecycle and command-and-control communication of advanced malware works, and how this dynamic ability makes them difficult, if not impossible to detect with traditional security solutions.
Detecting Cyber Threats and Botnets in Service Provider Networks
Internet service providers are under increasing pressure to provide 'clean pipes' – to detect botnets and advanced threats present in their networks, alert and protect their subscribers, and ultimately provide assistance or advice on how to remediate the infection.
With the rapid proliferation of smart phones and other mobile internet computing devices, telco/mobile/wireless providers now face the same issue, but with the additional and potentially painful ramifications that malware infections on subscriber devices could result in "bill shock" (fraudulent data charges appearing on subscriber bills), which will present a nightmare scenario for customer service operations and a poor customer experience.
Abstract: With the recent news of Operation Aurora attacking Google and 30 other enterprises, botnets and advanced persistent threats (APTs) have grabbed the attention of the C-suite - from the office of the CIO to the board room. Questions like: Are these new threats? Aren't we protected by our current security solutions? How do we know for sure if we haven't been compromised?; are being asked in Fortune 1000 companies across all industries.
Experts from The 451 Group and Damballa discuss some of the key issues and findings regarding botnets/APTs and eCrime that affect enterprise security, what's changed with these threats, and solutions for defending against these stealthy attacks.
