Debunking Continuous Monitoring Myths

FEATURING: Eugene E. Schultz and Steve Johnston
https://www.sans.org/webcasts/debunking-continuous-monitoring-myths-94408 Sponsored By: Tripwire http://www.tripwire.com/
There are many myths floating around about continuous monitoring of
government systems. In this webcast, senior SANS analyst, Eugene
Schultz, PhD, debunks the myths that are holding organizations back
from getting started on their continuous monitoring efforts. For
example, continuous monitoring doesn’t always mean continuous, and
real-time doesn’t mean always real-time.
WEBCAST 4
Application Whitelisting Stops Stuxnet, APTs, and the Common Cold! (Time for a Reality Check)

Sponsored By: Coretrace http://www.coretrace.com/
Application whitelisting’s security and control benefits are well known, but how does the approach really help thwart today’s sophisticated threats better than traditional blacklisting–and what does the promising technology NOT address?
Please join John Strand and Dan Teal, CTO & founder of CoreTrace, for an honest, marketing-free and spirited debate about that very subject.
