Invited guests were able to get acquainted with current issues of minimizing IT threats, creating secure wireless networks and geolocation services, comprehensive monitoring of IT infrastructure and analysis of network traffic anomalies based on artificial intelligence. Also, advanced approaches to the methodology of protecting against insiders and monitoring employee performance were discussed during the event.
During the first lecture of the seminar «Building modern secure wireless networks based on WiFi 6 and WiFi 6E with on-premise and cloud architectures and geolocation services» from HPE було розкрито здатність корпоративного WiFi забезпечити всі необхідні технології безпеки: вбудований фаєрвол, вбудовану технологію DPI (Deep Packet Inspection), метод виявлення чужих точок доступу та їх приборкування, оперативне виявлення розташування підозрілих користувачів. Слухачів особливо зацікавили питання максимальної кількості точок в кластері, застосування системи керування для моніторингу WiFi мережі, алгоритми виявлення сторонніх точок та їх знешкодження.
The second report «How to ensure effective monitoring and security of critical infrastructure?» from BAKOTECH revealed the capabilities of the WhatsUp Gold and Flowmon platforms (developed by Progress). The presented solutions combine artificial intelligence-based network traffic and anomaly analysis with comprehensive IT infrastructure monitoring, that ensures the availability, performance and security of the corporate IT environment through a single interface. Seminar participants were actively interested in how to provide closed networks monitoring and encrypted traffic analysis, as well as how to combine work in the context of network and security incidents of NetOps and SecOps teams.
Topic «Effective monitoring of user activities and countering insiders during war» also sparked a lively discussion on minimizing the risk of insider activities. The seminar participants were interested in methodologies for protecting against insiders and spies and had many questions about monitoring user activity and performance: how to create custom reports or notifications when corporate company policies are violated, as well as how the monitoring itself occurs on user workstations.
