During this presentation, Brockman explains:
  • Why corporate networks are continually exposed to security breaches
  • How regulatory mandates contribute to your information security needs
  • Why you need a process that authorizes endpoints rather than users
Listen to learn how Symantec Network Access Control can help you find and eliminate vulnerabilities and ensure that required patches, configuration, and protection signatures are in place before an endpoint is allowed to connect to your network. 		  
whitepaper TechNet Webcast: Anti-Malware Technologies in Windows Vista (Level 300)2006-12-15 01:00:19 Microsoft
  Windows Vista has many enhanced security technologies that have been developed to make the operating system more resilient against malware attacks. This webcast will cover how Windows is better protected against malware attacks, better at removing infections, and better at limiting potential harm from malicious software. The webcast will start with an overview of Microsoft's anti-malware technology strategy and also cover at a high level how the Windows Firewall, Data Execution Protection (DEP), IE protected mode, service hardening and user account control help prevent and contain malware. The main focus however will be on the anti-malware technologies found in Windows Vista including an architecture overview of Windows Defender (formerly Windows AntiSpyware) and the Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT).   
whitepaper Webcast: How to Combine Endpoint Protection with Endpoint Compliance2006-12-15 13:48:00 Symantec
  Endpoint compliance is the discipline of ensuring that all networked computers -- including desktops, laptops, servers, and mobile devices -- are running the appropriate security solutions, are configured correctly, and possess up-to-date patches for known vulnerabilities.

Of course, ensuring endpoint compliance is an ongoing task that begs for a comprehensive, automated solution -- a solution that readily integrates with your existing infrastructure so you can quickly and easily:
  • Discover your endpoints and determine whether they comply with your security policies
  • Enforce network access control
  • Remediate noncompliant systems
Listen to this TechRepublic Webcast, now available on demand, to hear Symantec's Tony Brockman, Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager, explain why today's sophisticated threat landscape demands that you have a multi-layered, standards-based solution that not only protects your endpoints but ensures that they comply with your overall security posture, as well. 		  
whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Identifying Least-Privilege User Account (LUA) Bugs With the LUA Buglight Tool (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Applications that unnecessarily require administrative privileges are among the biggest obstacles to secure desktop deployment, and this is not likely to change for Windows Vista deployments. Designing applications to install and run under the Least-Privilege User Account (LUA) can help to address this problem to a certain degree, but some applications can still break when run with a limited user account. Identifying specific causes for these "LUA bugs" has traditionally been very difficult, and applying the fixes often exposes other unnecessary risks. This webcast introduces LUA Buglight, a new tool that quickly identifies the specific causes of "LUA bugs", which the user can remediate at the code level or at deployment with carefully tailored system tweaks.

whitepaper TechNet Webcast: Enabling Trusted Communications and Health Policy Enforcement With Network Access Protection (NAP) (Level 300)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  This webcast explains how Network Access Protection (NAP), built into Windows Vista and Windows Server code-named "Longhorn" operating systems, provides policy enforcement components to help ensure that computers on a network meet administrator-defined requirements for system health. With NAP, the users can use a combination of policy validation and network isolation components to control network access, and temporarily isolate computers to a more secure network segment if they do not meet system health requirements. The webcast provides an overview of the NAP architecture and requirements, demonstrate NAP using Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enforcement, and drill down to the NAP components.
