Abstract
Information security, and the technologies that provide such security, are a very hot topic throughout the information technology and business communities today. This presentation opens with a consideration of the current network environment. It answers the questions "where are these technologies?" and "where are the gaps in the technologies that are being addressed?" especially as they impact security. Next, the presentation considers the field of network security technologies. It addresses the good, the bad and the undecided aspects of the field today. After setting the stage with this background information, the presentation identifies the most important trends that will impact the network security industry in the coming few years: the federal government finally cares, the vanishing network perimeter, and the opportunity to achieve ubiquitous encryption. Toward the end of the presentation, Dr. Reel presents two "killer" security-related applications. Finally, the presentation closes with a discussion of the major needs in the information security field.About the Speaker
