with the company helps the organization gain management efficiencies,
improves security and saves money. The challenge is "where do I
begin?" This discussion will demystify identity management by

Denmac will be presenting the following seminars:
Demystifying
identity management: a look at provisioning, directory synchronization,
single sign-on, and password management
The concept of
managing digital identities continues to gain momentum. It’s about
defining and managing who has access to your network over the lifecycle
of the user, which helps companies gain efficiencies, eliminate
inconsistencies throughout systems, improve security, and meet
compliance requirements. But what does it all MEAN? How does it
happen? Where do you begin? This discussion will demystify identity
management by breaking down the topic into logical components and
addressing their unique set of needs - when it makes sense, things to
consider, and tangible business benefits.
Linux on the desktop - a realistic look at what you gain and what
you give up
We've waited a long time for an alternative to Windows on the
desktop and we finally have something to talk about! But what does Linux
in a Windows world really mean? Strategically speaking, who within the
organization should be using it? Are there compromises in functionality
caused by switching from Windows to Linux? Will you be able to access
the files, printers, email systems, client-server applications and data
on mainframes? In this session we’ll take a realistic look at when it
makes sense, what you gain, and what you give up with Linux on the
desktop.
Next generation wireless LANs. . . faster, more secure, and
easier to manage
Technology has advanced and next generation wireless LANs offer
more control and security then ever before. Security has improved by
LEAPs and bounds - offering the flexibility to support multiple
authentication mechanisms, the technology continues to get more robust
and reliable, and centralized management is now a reality. This session
will discuss strategies to deploy enterprise-grade wireless that
supports all of the applications needed in our converged world.

Denmac will be presenting the following seminars:
Protecting your web applications
Protecting your company is more than deploying a firewall and strong
passwords; it’s also about protecting the applications that you present
to the Internet. These are the corporate assets that everyone can see
from the Internet (including the bad guys), and they are the new
frontier for your company's security strategy. In thinking through your
strategy, you'll need to address 1) how to protect your existing
applications, and 2) how to integrate security into your new web
applications. In this session, we will discuss common security
vulnerabilities, how you can mitigate your risk, and what to consider
when building new applications.
Protecting your
company from risks associated with off-premises Wi-Fi
It seems that you can get Wi-Fi access from just about anywhere - your
favorite coffee shop, fast food restaurants, the airport, even your
living room. With the increased access, unfortunately, your company's
risk increases by an order of magnitude. This session will walk through
the various risks and exposures to your company, and discuss some
strategies that help mitigate those risks.
Remote access
solution round-up
Does anyone work at their desk anymore? Our employees have come to
expect trusted computing resources wherever they are - on the road, in
an Internet hot-spot, and at home. As the IT visionary, it’s up to you
to decide how you keep your users productive, regardless of their
location. Enter the chaos of remote access, and the array of available
technologies. Ultimately, it boils downs to three major solution sets:
remote desktops (i.e., Citrix or terminal services), SSL VPNs, and IPSec
VPNs. This session will help make some order out of the chaos, and talk
about these technologies - what they are, how they work, and where they
fit. This is a must attend for anyone responsible for providing
services to remote employees.

Denmac will be presenting the following seminars:
Preparing Your Network for IP Telephony
Convergence has been a hot topic for some time now, and while
market acceptance has taken a little longer than originally thought,
it's only a matter of time before voice, video, and data converge.
Is your network ready? This session will address the key
components of a network infrastructure foundation built to support IP
telephony and data convergence, as well as what you need to think about
from a performance, scalability, and availability perspective. If
you're responsible for researching, planning, or implementing IP
telephony, you will learn critical information about developing the
roadmap for leveraging this technology.
Building a Business Continuity/Disaster
Recovery Plan
How would you rate your ability to recover from a disaster or
disruptive event? We understand that building a comprehensive
business continuity and disaster recovery plan can be a daunting
challenge, and we have some suggestions on how to get started.
This discussion will outline the critical elements of developing a
business continuity and disaster recovery plan. Whether it's a
natural disaster, a down server or something worse, there are a number
of decisions that need to be made long before a crisis hits. If
you're responsible for the business continuity or disaster recovery
process, this session will provide valuable information on developing a
plan or validating what you currently have in place.
The Future of Wireless Security
The freedom wireless technology offers is changing the
landscape of business communication. The many advantages of
wireless LANs - lower costs, flexibility, and ease of deployment - are
offset by a number of security risks. This interactive discussion
will walk you through technologies and standards, key threats and
vulnerabilities, best practices for secure deployment, and what's on the
horizon. Whether you're currently leveraging the benefits of

It goes without saying that protecting critical data is a
normal part of business operations these days, but defining what
appropriate protection actually means to your organization is another
story. This discussion will focus on Risk Management principles
and building a process to protect the confidentiality, integrity and
availability of your information.
Anatomy of an Attack
How is your company at risk from an information security
perspective? What are would-be attackers looking for in their
targets? What are today's most common attacks? In this
discussion, we'll take you into the mind of an attacker and show you
how they go about compromising systems. You will gain a clear
understanding of your key vulnerabilities, how systems are exploited, and
what you need to do to protect your critical assets. This is a
management level discussion focusing on the business issues that need to
be addressed, in order to better protect your organization from security
breaches.

Denmac will be presenting the following seminars:
Wireless LANs - Extending the Corporate Network
A new era of networking is upon us. . . The enormous
advantages of wireless networking - lower infrastructure costs, ease of
installations, unlimited flexibility - are leading companies to embrace
wireless networking. While the benefits are great, there are many
security issues that also need to be addressed. This discussion
will walk you through how wireless LANs work, technologies and standards
used, key threats and vulnerabilities, and best practices for securely
deploying wireless LANs in an enterprise environment. Whether you
have already deployed a wireless LAN or are considering it, this is a
must attend for IT Directors and IT Managers.
Directory Services - More than just User IDs
and Passwords
Whether it's Novell eDirectory or Microsoft Active Directory,
the directory has become more than user IDs and passwords. It is
now the vehicle that can allow your users to have access to their
information anytime, from anywhere. It takes your users away from
being tied to a specific computer, to a world where they can be
productive anywhere on your network. How? By leveraging the
power of the directory, the things that are important to your users -
their applications, printers, resources, etc. - follow them throughout
your networked organization - offering new found flexibility and
productivity for your users and administrative teams. This
discussion focuses on maximizing the directory to improve productivity,
efficiency, simplify management, and cut costs. Learn how to
leverage your Directory!
Wireless Security - Managing the New
Frontier
Mobility has changed how we do business today. PDA's,
laptops, smart phones, handheld devices, etc., continue to enable
business. They also store valuable corporate assets, yet we calmly
watch as they walk in and out the front door everyday with very few
controls in place. Security must extend beyond your corporate
walls! Issues of encryption, authentication, virus protection, as
well as data back-up, have become critical. We will explore
wireless security policy fundamentals, security risks, technology
solutions currently available, those being developed, and what specific
issues enterprises need to address. This seminar is designed for
CIOs, CSOs, IT Directors, and IT Managers responsible for network
security strategy, deployment and management.
