Press Release
Narus CTO to Speak at the 2005 Intel Workshop
WHAT: World-renowned security and telecommunications expert Dr. Antonio Nucci, CTO of Narus, will join industry visionaries in a discussion about evolving Internet threats and the tools used to limit damage from network attacks. The two-day event, hosted by Intel, will include discussions on which algorithms, methods and systems deliver the best security to customers, and where they should be deployed. Selected because of his extensive experience in network monitoring and security, as well as his executive role at visionary security company Narus, Dr. Nucci will highlight the major shifts in security over the past few years. He will also present Narus’ preventative technology used by high-speed carriers worldwide to combat the worms wreaking havoc on our networks.
WHEN: November 16, 2005, 4 p.m. PT
WHERE: Intel Workshop, Portland, Ore.
WHY: Last year alone, enterprises reported losses exceeding $26 million from denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. These losses are expected to increase exponentially as Internet business increases and attacks become more sophisticated. As the security market continues to evolve and threats become more complex and numerous, enterprise customers have begun shifting the security burden to carrier networks.
However, carriers are realizing the security products designed for large enterprise networks fail to address the needs of carrier networks. Carriers must provide emerging services to customers in increasingly open networks, while minimizing security threats against attacks that are harder to detect and growing in number.
Carriers need a new approach to security, one that is designed for use on high-speed networks that can adapt to a changing environment. Combining sophisticated algorithms with a powerful, distributed platform, Narus provides this solution.
