DUBAI, UAE, 14th May, 2016: Infoblox Inc., a frontrunner in DDI and DNS Security, along with Fortinet, a worldwide pioneer in high-performance cybersecurity solutions, will collaboratively host a security seminar titled ‘Together We Safeguard’ at the Four Seasons Hotel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Monday, May 30th.
Cherif Sleiman, General Manager for the Middle East at Infoblox, states, “We are currently experiencing a surge of IT innovation and modernization. Regional enterprises must prioritize security as the primary focus of IT expenditure, especially considering the ever-evolving threat environment and the political instabilities in certain nations that are intensifying the landscape of cyber warfare. DNS has emerged as the most significant threat vector today – regarding denial of service or data theft. Malware is also among the most pressing threats. Contemporary trends such as SDN & cloud computing have shifted emphasis away from network security. Network attacks are expected to transition to application-level assaults and challenges on DNS infrastructure, since effective business operations rely heavily on both applications and DNS. In partnership with Fortinet, we aim to inform regional CIOs and IT leaders on how they can implement a multi-layered strategy for security and address existing vulnerabilities.”
The presentations will encompass security themes including malware and strategies to mitigate DNS vulnerabilities, enhancing endpoint security through compliance audits and network automation. Moreover, the event will underscore how collaborative solutions from Fortinet and Infoblox can deliver unmatched security to regional organizations, offering a comprehensive end-to-end security apparatus through actionable network intelligence that is open, scalable, and robust from the core.
“Given the current threat landscape, the prevalence of DDoS attacks, intricate intrusions into infrastructure, and the introduction of advanced protocols like IPv6, organizations in the Middle East must equip themselves with the latest technological advancements,” concludes Alain Penel, Vice President for the Middle East at Fortinet.
