The 2014 Global Threat Intelligence Report

The 2014 Global Threat Intelligence Report

The annual NTT Group Global Threat Intelligence Report, presented by Solutionary, is out and the message is clear. It's time for organizations to get security basics right, including the implementation of effective protection from Web application attacks, malware, botnets and other threats. Join this session to learn:

Five critical areas of security - threat avoidance, threat response, threat detection, investigate capabilities and response capabilities; Key findings of the 2014 GTIR and relevant case studies; Recommendations to compress the mitigation timeline.

Background

The goal of the NTT Group Global Threat Intelligence Report (GTIR) is to raise awareness for executives and security professionals of how to avoid high-profile information security and data breaches, while understanding the needs for a strategic security program with proven controls that will help organizations balance cost and risk.

Using real-world case studies and findings from over 3 billion analyzed attacks, the 2014 NTT Global Threat Intelligence Report (GTIR) demonstrates strategies to minimize threat impact and compress the threat mitigation timeline. Among key findings of the study:

The cost for a "minor" SQL injection attack can exceed $196,000; Anti-virus applications fail to detect 54 percent of new malware; Healthcare has seen a 13 percent increase in botnet activity.

In this session, the report's key architects walk through case studies that bring the findings to life, and they focus on strategies for refining the five critical areas of security: threat avoidance, threat response, threat detection, investigate capabilities and response capabilities.
