Hackers probe your perimeter constantly, using automated tools to exploit the vulnerabilities they find. Yet enterprises, burdened with inflexible systems, outdated processes and limited resources, are forced to treat perimeter security as a monthly or quarterly project. This session will lay out a blueprint for creating a continuous security practice spanning the entire lifecycle, from discovering assets to prioritizing issues and mitigating exploits. In addition, Lino will discuss how taking a continuous approach to perpetually audit your perimeter, can help baseline your environment, set appropriate rules, receive exception-based alerts and act quickly.
