Damballa CTO Stephen Newman to Present on How to Stop Data Theft by Removing Network Blind Spots at CyberMaryland 2015

ATLANTA--()--Damballa, the experts in network security monitoring, today announced that Stephen Newman, Chief Technology Officer, will speak on how to alter the skyrocketing breach trajectory by changing the way cyber threats are viewed in a presentation titled, “Removing Blind Spots in Your Network Visibility to Stop Data Theft,” at the upcoming CyberMaryland 2015 conference, taking place October 28 and 29th at the Baltimore Convention Center.

Most organizations spend the most resources watching the attack vector to stop adversaries from getting in. Since advanced evasion techniques make it impossible to prevent all attacks, it is critical to have visibility into network behavior in real time and over time. In his presentation, Newman will discuss how organizations can eliminate blind spots that keep them from detecting hidden or unknown adversaries. Organizations must accept that compromise is inevitable but so too is the ability to take action before data theft. As an industry we must shift our energies towards finding the compromised devices on a network early so that we don’t become accustomed to breaches hitting the ‘millions of records’ mark before they are detected.
