SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 10/30/13 — AhnLab, a leading provider of information security products and services for enterprise business environments, today announced that Leo Versola, vice president of technology, will be a featured presenter at the 2013 IANS Chicago Information Security Forum on November 4-5 at McCormick Place North.
AhnLab-s session will focus on preventing malware attacks in a network environment and protecting digital assets from Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). The presentation will take place during Monday-s Technology Spotlight Sessions from 11:05 a.m. – 12:23 p.m. CT.
“With Advanced Persistent Threats, cyber criminals are stealthy and extremely focused, often designing their multi-stage attacks with specific targets in mind,” said Leo Versola, vice president of technology, AhnLab. “Traditional security solutions are proving ineffective against these threats, illustrating the importance for C-level executives to take these threats seriously and to reevaluate their current security infrastructures.”
