SAN JOSE, California, March 12/-- Finjan, a leader of best-of-breed proactive web security solutions for businesses and organizations, today announced that Finjan Chief Technology Officer Yuval Ben-Itzhak will explore the changing threat landscape in the web scenario at Ziff Davis Enterprise Security Summit in New York City on Wednesday, March 14: http://ccgevents.com/events/2007_Security_Summit/.
Ben-Itzhak will present examples of the newest types of web-based threats, as discovered "in the wild" by Finjan's Malicious Code Research Center (MCRC), and discuss ways in which enterprises can defend their networks against them. In addition, the presentation will glance ahead at the types of threats expected in 2007 and beyond. These include dynamic code obfuscation, Web 2.0 platforms and new exploits based on AJAX technology that were seen in the wild recently.
"Looking ahead at 2007, industry analysts concur that the web has become the number one vector for malicious code propagation. Commercially-driven hackers understand that dynamic code obfuscation and other advanced attack vectors easily bypass signature-based solutions, like anti-virus and URL filtering, that were not designed to detect these dynamic web scenarios,"stated Ben-Itzhak. "In order to safeguard their information assets from malicious web content, Finjan recommends that enterprises adopt proactive security solutions utilizing real-time web content analysis. Such behavior-based security solutions are an effective means of preventing these new types of attacks."
