The main speakers at the webinar would be Scott Gordon, vice president of AccelOps and Eric Ogren, principal analyst at The Ogren Group. Between them they have almost four decades of work experience. Ogren has worked with firms like Yankee Group, Enterprise Strategy Group, Okena, Sequation and Tizor. He is an esteemed name in security analysis. Scott Gordon has worked with Protego and has made immense contributions to advancing products for business management, event correlation, risk management and anti-malware. 

What can you hope to learn from this?
Some of the main issues that would be covered are – (a) the enabling technologies that enhance control monitoring, security responsiveness, documentation, CCM etc, (b) the major data center controls that have a bearing on auditing, investigations and adherence, (c) what constraints are placed on log and security information management systems, (d) the convergence taking place in compliance mandates and how reliance on technology is growing even for executive conversations and (e) what are the basic principles of an audit ready data center and how they go a long way in widening security policies.

Who should attend this seminar?
Particularly those who are in the security and auditing business especially for mid-tier enterprises should make a beeline to this online seminar.

Why a webinar on this subject?
Today it is no secret that data centers need to use energy effectively – not only for cost savings but also for environmental considerations. So it’s not just about logging data, reporting on it and searching access data.  A data center manager also has to define practical IT polices and implement them in order to prune the constraints of resource management, integrate security with business systems and track configuration. Enter the webinar that shows the manager how to go about doing this. In a data center that is not afraid of an audit, IT and business units do not exist in watertight compartments. Instead they come together almost seamlessly to enhance control mechanisms thereby presenting a united and more formidable front to audit requirements, security considerations and other violations.
