GEC NEWS WIREFidelis Cybersecurity® will be participating in GISEC 2018, to be held at Dubai World Trade Center, May 01-03. Building on the capabilities of Fidelis Elevate™, an automated detection and response (ADR) solution, that was launched in the Middle East at GITEX 2017, Fidelis Cybersecurity will demonstrate how regional organizations can leverage a modern Deception defense that extends visibility and detection deep into the network, learns new attacker techniques and better defends organizations’ critical data assets.
Making the case for deception technologies, Roland Daccache, Senior Regional Sales Engineer, MENA at Fidelis Cybersecurity said, “Regardless of the techniques—behavioral, signature based, machine learning—used by traditional security stack solutions like anti-virus (AV), next-gen firewall (NGFW) and sandbox, attackers and advanced malware are slipping through the cracks.”
“The need for better detection and response is creating new opportunities for security stack automation, integration, consolidation and orchestration, while also driving the emergence of new segments like deception—the use of decoys, traps and lures. An active deception defense, recently identified by Gartner as a top security technology, is emerging as a very powerful post-breach defense that blends within the customer infrastructure and provides very accurate high-fidelity alerts on any suspicious movement in the network, whether from an insider, or a determined outsider,” he continued.
“I firmly believe that our intelligent, automated deception solution offers a unique value proposition for Middle East organizations—enabling security operations teams to work with exceptional effectiveness and efficiency and stay one step ahead of the attackers, by moving from alerts to conclusions. As one of the only cybersecurity-focused events in the region, GISEC offers us a wonderful platform to meet with select prospects, our valued channel partners and industry peers and I look forward to sharing our latest technology and expertise with the Middle East cybersecurity community,” concluded Roland.
