In this session we will demonstrate how to achieve continuous monitoring and mitigation capabilities that better leverage your infrastructure investments and optimize your IT resources. Most companies have deployed a number of technologies that make up the SANS Top 20, but the challenge is how to ensure these technologies integrate to provide the layers of security required to deter or prevent a breach. By working with the top technology resources and techniques we will demonstrate how critical it is to have an open integration environment and what are some of the products that best fit this model.
