Introduction – Mark Osborne, Director of Security Engineering, KPMG

Where do Firewalls end & IDS begin?

This session will describe recent vulnerabilities/attacks and provide real life situations where organisations
used Intrusion Detection systems to detect and counter the attacks.

LUNCH BREAK

Why Passwords are not enough
During this session it will be demonstrated why passwords don’t provide the security required for modern
applications and why stronger authentication is required.
Tim Pickard, EMEA Strategic Marketing Director, RSA Security

Putting it all together
The theme of this session is that a defence is only as strong as its weakest point so a comprehensive approach
to internet security is required.
Michael van Strien
