Strategic co-alliances of technology providers will shape the twists and turns in the IT landscape. This race for convergence will determine the pole position leaders in the years to come.

This conference will at the same time explore and address new network trends, requirements such as performance and security needs of a wide set of application protocols in use today and those that may be deemed important tomorrow, storage, bandwidth management as well as WAN optimization.

Learn how to build multi-layers of integrated IT security for threat identification, prevention, tracking/ containment/ elimination throughout your LAN and routers, as well as malware lurking among your servers. In addition, the interaction effect between server, security, storage and network systems. Formulate comprehensive strategies that address both security and performance needs for today and years to come.

Attend and get an in-depth understanding of the latest technology trends and updates addressing potential as well as emerging needs and challenges in the IT/ Security space today.

Understand how to prevent vulnerabilities in one level of the system and prevent exploitation attacks on another level in your business infrastructure. Understand how you can optimize security in your network and application performance concurrently.

IT security race must evolve in the new world of virtualized distributed computing. There has been an acceleration of dramatic changes in the nature of our IT security needs in this fast-paced, challenging new world. There is a real need to look beyond the normal boundaries and compete realistically to overcome cyber-threats in a concerted move.

Don’t miss the road when you implement security and traffic enhancement tools in the various system components, follow the signs and don’t overlook the impact or interaction with other servers and network system levels.

The framework of an effective and unbreakable security and traffic management systems are composed of multiple levels including personnel, administration policies and procedures, servers, routers and network appliances, and communication protocols for true connectivity that shifts the system into higher gear.
