Hi All,

I attended the Webcast and it was informative. Some of the topics discussed were:

  • Complexity of the targetted attacks,
  • Critical Security Process
  • Vulnerability Management
  • Information Security Maturity Model
  • Overcoming the Limitations of Vulnerability Management
  • Penetration Testing and why and how organizations perform the same.
