Press Release

Lancope’s ‘University of NetFlow’ Seminars Headed to Raleigh, Houston and Los Angeles in September

Participants will learn how to obtain in-depth, internal network visibility for dramatically improved security and performance

ATLANTA, August 27, 2012 Lancope, Inc., a leader in flow-based security and network performance monitoring, will deliver its free, educational ‘University of NetFlow’ seminars in Raleigh, Houston and Los Angeles in September. At a time when organizations of all types and sizes are frequently being hit with high-profile cyber-attacks, it is often found that internal network visibility is lacking within enterprise networks.

By joining one of the Lancope seminars, attendees can learn how to effectively harness valuable flow data from existing infrastructure to achieve end-to-end network visibility and keep stealthy attackers at bay. For further details on the complimentary seminars, or to register, go to: http://www.lancope.com/news-events/university-of-netflow/.

While conventional security technologies such as firewalls and antivirus are essential for detecting known malware and blocking attacks at the perimeter, they are not effective for uncovering more sophisticated attacks such as insider threats and APTs. To detect today’s next generation of attacks, organizations must have insight into what is going on within their internal networks to detect anomalous behavior without having to rely on signature updates.

In addition to significantly bolstering network defenses, internal visibility gained from the collection and analysis of flow data can also vastly improve network performance, forensic investigations, capacity planning, compliance efforts, helpdesk operations and a wide variety of other IT and business objectives. Join a Lancope ‘University of NetFlow’ seminar and discover how to:

  • Cost-effectively tap into existing resources to obtain in-depth network visibility
  • Leverage network visibility to seamlessly detect potential security, compliance and performance issues
  • Quickly pinpoint the exact device, application and/or user responsible for issues
  • Shut down potential problems before they wreak havoc on your network and business
  • Avoid becoming the next organization making headlines for a security breach
  • Save substantial amounts of money on your network and security monitoring efforts

Upcoming dates for the seminars include:

The free seminars include presentations, discussions and hands-on training for a comprehensive learning experience. Those interested can register at: http://www.lancope.com/news-events/university-of-netflow/.
