Preventing and Handling Security Incidents

Ensuring SOX and FDA Compliance and Protecting Your Company’s Assets

Paul Drapeau

IT Security Vertex Pharmaceuticals

Recorded

The information security landscape changes at a very rapid pace. New threats and vulnerabilities are discovered on a daily basis. Federal laws and regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and FDA's CFR Part 11 expect companies to implement controls to ensure security of systems and data. Technology choices in the network and system security space are vast and difficult to evaluate and deploy effectively. Even the best security infrastructures and environments are subject to compromise from determined attackers or unanticipated methods of attack.

The costs of information security incidents can be great in terms of money spent, down time, and compliance risk. Security incidents represent a direct impact to the validated state of computer systems

Some questions remain:

• What does the current information security threat landscape
• What can we learn from recent attack trends?
• What are the common results of a security incident and how does a compromise affect the validated state of a computer system?
• What are the regulatory implications of a network compromise?
• How do technology and policy relate to protecting IT environments from these threats?
• How should an organization prepare to handle an information security incident?
• What audit trails are important in a security incident and how can their integrity be protected?
• How does good Identity Management help in the event of a security incident?
• How do factors like company size, industry or budget play into an information security strategy?

How does the audio seminar help:

The presenter will discuss

• The current state of information security attacks
• Compromises and trends based on concrete data and
• Real world examples.

Information will be presented that will help you to assess the risks to your data, compliance status, and information systems presented by different types of attacks or compromises. You will learn how to use information about known threats and new vulnerabilities to evaluate and protect your environment.
