Editorial Type: Feature     Date: 03-2014    Views: 2300   







It's that time of the year again, and with the rate of cyber-attacks growing and the post-Snowden effect taking hold, those involved from the centre to the periphery of IT security need replenishment

The progression of challenges, evolution of threats and the overall risk to IT security is not diminishing. If like most IT and security professionals you are struggling to keep up, then a day at this year's Infosecurity event is good idea. It is a chance to network with experts, peers and vendors and engage with over 15,000 other information security professionals. This is the 19th Infosecurity Europe and it takes place between 29th April and 1st May 2014 at Earls Court, London.

Infosecurity Europe has established itself as the largest and most attended information security event in Europe and it is free to attend and this year it will feature over 325 exhibitors presenting a diverse range of new products and services. As always the free education programme is unrivalled.

Visitors can rely on a visit to the show to see what is new, discuss specific challenges with product experts or technical staff and update the education of yourself and colleagues. From the New Exhibitor zone to the Country Pavilions, you can discover the latest products and solutions emerging locally and internationally. This offers a unique opportunity to receive expert advice and to discuss your needs.

EDUCATION
The Education Programme is shaped by the industry for the industry. Addressing the latest challenges and industry needs it will provide attendees with business critical insight, best practice and practical case studies. Our content partners (ISC)2 and ISACA enable visitors of the free Education Programme to collect valuable CPD/CPE Credits which get allocated automatically in the months following the event.

Featuring five conference and seminar theatres and a comprehensive programme of workshops and training courses, the education programme helps information security professionals to further develop both their career and professional ability.

With a range of learning opportunities, attendees can access high-level content through a range of different formats from panel discussions and presentations to workshops and training courses.

The programme has been created following extensive research with the Information Security community and an Advisory Council of CISOs to identify the topics, issues and challenges that they consider important and to ensure that attendees leave with business intelligence, knowledge and insight that can be applied directly to their organisation.

KEYNOTE THEATRE
This year's Keynote Theatre agenda will address the theme of security as a business enabler, focusing on how a proactive, resilient security strategy can add value and support growth and transformation in the hyper-connected business.

Bringing together senior end-user practitioners from the public and private sectors, policy makers and analysts, the programme will provide strategic insight, best-practice and real-life experience, providing a unique opportunity for delegates to learn directly from the experts who are at the sharp-end of information security.

With panel discussions, presentations, interviews and Q&A sessions, delegates will leave the sessions with strategic insight and practical tips that will enhance their personal skills and assist them in developing and implementing a robust information security strategy for the next 12 months.

Attendees of the Keynote Theatre will also have the opportunity to learn about business critical topics including building a predictive threat intelligence capability, balancing security versus usability, building transparency and trust in the supply chain, Big Data security intelligence, Generation Y and information security, and what's new in cybercrime.

Speakers already confirmed to speak in the Keynote Theatre include senior representatives from Skype, Pearson, Viacom International Media Networks, Premier Farnell, Home Retail Group, Rank Group, Travis Perkins, GE Capital and Amgen.
