Fox Technologies Shows Enterprises How to Secure Multi-Scale Systems During Cyber Security Chicago

CHICAGO, Oct. 18, 2017 -- Fox Technologies, a leader in securing Linux environments, highlights the security dangers when deploying multi-scale systems to power cloud, artificial intelligence, big data and Internet-of-Things during Cyber Security Chicago Oct. 18 – 19, 2017 at the McCormick Place Conference Center, booth 350. Mark Lambiase, chief technical officer, is presenting, “Cloud, AI, Big Data…Oh My! How Growing Scale of Systems is Changing the Game,” on Wednesday, Oct. 18 to provide organizations actionable tips to centralize and secure their systems.

“Virtualization and cloud computing have led to an IT asset explosion that’s been compounded by SaaS and IaaS service models – a footprint that changes by the minute and makes point-in-time data asset identification nearly impossible,” commented Lambiase. “Furthermore, we now have millions of ‘things’ connected to the Internet with the power to collect data with minimal security. The data warehouses where these vast amounts of data are collected, collated and measured have become single points of failure and present an extreme risk to people’s identity – especially in scenarios where AI models are able to interpret behavior. Organizations need to be aware of the security vulnerabilities that exist with these new models and what they can do to proactively protect their systems.”

Executives are also available to meet with media to discuss findings from the 2017 Cyber Threat Defense Report that surveyed IT security professionals from 15 countries and 19 industries. Notable findings include 79 percent of networks were breached in comparison to 62 percent just three years ago, 89 percent experienced a shortfall of available security talent, and 76 percent of security budgets are rising.
