Join this session and see one of the leading OS and Security Experts Sami Laiho show you how to build a proactive security solution that's always up to date.

Did you see the news about the latest zero-day attack using RTF-files? Yet again, an example where no harm is done if you have your proactive security measures in place. In fact, all of the biggest zero-attacks in the last decade have been of such nature that even without an anti-malware solution you could have avoided the worst consequences if you just had you proactive security done right. If a user has admin rights he/she can turn off the protective measures so this is the most important thing to do right and get rid of the excessive user permission. In this session. you'll see how admins can turn off all policies in a heartbeat. After you're done with getting rid of admin rights you need to implement stuff like firewalls, IPsec, Software Restriction policies and disk encryption. And yes, you also need a reactive solution like an anti-malware on top of the more important proactive measures. Reactive security reacts to found threats and proactive security prevents you from getting them in the first place.
