Sharm
el-Sheikh, Egypt – October
18, 2016 – Guidance
Software, the makers of EnCase®, the gold standard in forensic security,
today announced their participation in the fifth regional cyber security summit
to be held from October 30 – November 01 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Guidance
will use the event as a platform to educate enterprises and government
organizations on the need to deploy security solutions that go beyond
protecting just the perimeter and to that end, will highlight the capabilities
of their endpoint data security and digital forensic solutions including EnCase
Endpoint Security, EnCase
Enpoint Investigator, EnCase
eDiscovery and EnForce
Risk Manager.
Commenting on the importance
of a holistic approach to security that addresses the entire network, Helmi
Landosi, Territory Sales Manager MEA, Guidance Software, says, “Loss of sensitive
data and disruption to IT systems is one of the greatest risks organizations in
the region are facing today. Adding to this vulnerability, are the rising
frequency of attacks, growing costs of remediation, and lengthening
time-to-response. Detecting and preventing attacks today, starts with deploying
multiple layers of defense. Organizations need to move away from a myopic focus
on perimeter security and take a proactive approach to tracking down any
warning signs of unauthorized or unusual behavior within their networks with
endpoint detection and response technology.”
On the third day of the
conference, Helmi and Yasser Anter, senior solution consultant MEA, will
conduct a technical presentation on EnCase Endpoint Security. Designed to
enable cybersecurity professionals to proactively address critical gaps in
their security framework, the effectiveness of EnCase Endpoint Security lies in
its ability to accelerate the detection of malicious activity and remediate it
before it can cause irreparable damage or loss of sensitive data. Key benefits
of the solution include:
·
Quicker Response - enables
security teams to accelerate response time to network security breaches and
significantly reduce the risk of serious data loss and associated liabilities
·
Effective Recovery - Once
malware or a risk of sensitive data is exposed and identified, EnCase Endpoint
Security lets security teams take definitive action and remove any reliance on
traditional remediation processes like wiping and reimaging, which results in
costly system downtime, loss of productivity and potential revenue loss
·
Continuous Monitoring - Real-time
continuous monitoring capabilities provide the necessary level of visibility
and depth of reach required to deliver this capability across all network
endpoints in a highly-scalable manner
“Computer Emergency Response
Teams (CERTs) in any country are the first line of defense when breaches and
disasters happen. This event, which brings together key security decision
makers from leading regional and global enterprises and government security
organizations such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), ITU Arab
Regional Cybersecurity Center (ITU-ARCC) and Oman CERT, provides us with a
platform to showcase how our solutions can help security teams detect, respond to
and remediate threats quicker and as such ensure that their organizations’ most
valuable information and assets are safe and secure,” concluded Helmi.
