A technical seminar from Essant and Cisco Systems
Thursday 25th February, 2010, Cisco Systems, Didsbury, Manchester. Location Map
Cisco Systems and Essant would like to invite you to an exclusive event where we will be presenting an overview of the recently launched Cisco SAFE Security architecture. SAFE helps organisations move from concept to implementation by providing tools, validated designs and implementation guides that go 'beyond the firewall'.
You will also have the opportunity to hear first hand from Engineers and Technical Consultants who have deployed Cisco Security Technology, benefit from their experience of deploying technologies such as Intrusion Prevention and Network Admission Control to ensure that you deploy relevant technology in the most appropriate way.

Revolutionary collaboration and communication tools are transforming the way businesses interact and extend their services to partners and customers. Mobile devices and virtual platforms have torn down the already-wavering notion of a network perimeter, and the line between personal and professional lives continues to blur.
An increasingly collaborative and virtual enterprise brings unparalleled flexibility and potential, but introduces numerous risks as well. Security strategies must adapt to this changing, collaborative world. Organisations are facing the challenge of re-imagining security as an enabling force that helps people connect and break down barriers. Security is no longer a question of how to keep people out, but how to let them in.

Security is no longer a question of how to keep people out, but how to let them in.
Most organisatons now have a security infrastructure in place built up of products and services that include firewall, antivirus, authentication, antispam, etc. Many of these organisations have some kind of security policy in place, however security must move at the speed of crime by being vigilent to new risks, while keeping an eye on "old problems", never underestimating the insider threat and ensuring strong and realistic policies are in place for protecting sensitive data.
This seminar will help IT Professionals understand how the Cisco SAFE Security Architecture can benefit their business by providing Defence in Depth and System Wide intelligence to mitigate network security risks. As organisations transition to become more collaborative, Cisco SAFE enhances the Self Defending Network by taking a sytsems approach to security.
You will also have the opportunity to hear first hand from Engineers and Technical Consultants who have deployed Cisco Security Technology that sits beyond the firewall, benefit from their experience of deploying technologies such as Intrusion Prevention and Network Admission Control to ensure that you deploy relevant technology in the most appropriate way.

This event is aimed at IT Directors and Senior Network and Security Managers with a responsibility for deploying Security Solutions within their organisation and who need to go beyond the sales pitch and explicitly understand the technology and its implications prior to deployment. Although not a 'hands on' technical session the presenters will be expecting to go into a fairly high level of detail to ensure that attendees get sufficient value out of the session.
Registration will commence from 9.30am. The briefing starts at 10:00am; lunch will be served at 12:30 and the briefing will close at 1:30pm.
