NewswireToday - /newswire/ - London, United Kingdom, 01/09/2008 - Security event delivers in-depth assessment of the threat landscape and impact of malware on corporate organisations. Aimed at corporations reliant on online financial transactions.

Panda Security has had a positive response to the announcement that it is hosting a specialist Security Seminar on the 25th January. Limited free places are still available for the one-day event, which will be held at the London Stock Exchange.

Aimed at Senior IT professionals, Risk Managers and eCommerce Managers, the Seminar will deliver a detailed assessment of the evolving threat landscape and the impact of malware on business today. The event will be highly appropriate to organisations that rely at any level on online monetary transactions, Internet banking or other online communication where private and confidential data is transferred.

Analysis will be provided by Andrew Jaquith at The Yankee Group on the ‘malware paradox: perception vs. reality’. The seminar will also hear commentary from Panda’s Senior Research Advisor, Pedro Bustamente on how solutions are being created to address the key issues. Subjects for discussion will include what motivates cyber criminals; the true extent of the silent malware epidemic; the techniques used in cyber crime; and details of infection ratios in protected systems.

Dominic Hoskins, Country Manager at Panda UK, said: “In the last month two major security alerts have dominated national and international headlines, putting computer security at the very top of the agenda. Delegates to the Panda Security Seminar can expect to come away with a very clear understanding of the current situation relating to Internet threats, and more importantly, the means with which to prevent and combat these ever increasing threats to business.”
