Automobile Congestion, Back-ups, Road-Rage. We have all experienced the frustration of sitting in traffic jams on the highways and byways of this great land. While there has been a significant increase in the amount of highway capacity over the past 30 years, traffic congestion continues to grow unabated. In this session, we will study the fascinating history of highway traffic engineering, the tools traffic engineers utilize to solve the problem of congestion, and if there have been any modern advancements within the field that have effectively solved the problem of traffic congestion. Attendees will learn there are a number of similarities between traffic engineering and proactive security & risk management within enterprise network security, and a number of parallels will be drawn between the two fields to show how the same principles from the traffic engineering world can be applied to solve the proactive risk challenge within network security management.
