The continued evolution of applications and threats, coupled with the stagnation of traditional network security technology has resulted in a loss of visibility and control for many IT security organizations.

Security managers are exposed to rising levels of risk due to increasingly evasive malware and sophisticated threats. Adding more security controls only increases the complexity and cost, without effectively reducing risk.

The way to combat this issues is to use more intelligent security controls such as next-generation firewalls and advanced security management tools. So how do security professionals effectively and securely make the necessary migration to next-generation technology?

Join Palo Alto Networks and Skybox Security to gain valuable insight into the benefits of granular security of next-generation firewalls and how to effectively manage the migration process using proactive security management technology.

In this webcast we will examine:

• How next-generation firewalls simplify security management and increase control
• Why next-gen firewalls reduce the need for additional security devices and complexity
• How advanced security management technology can ensure a secure migration process
• Best practices for continuous proactive security management of next-gen technology

You will learn first-hand from Chris King, Director of Product Marketing at Palo Alto Networks how next-generation firewalls can greatly simplify security management by restoring control over application policies, users, and content in the firewall-reducing the need for additional security infrastructure and complexity.

Next, Michelle Cobb, VP of Marketing and Business Development for Skybox Security will explain the steps to securely managing the migration process using advanced security management technologies including automated analysis, change workflow and network modeling-demonstrating how the migration process and continued, daily security management of your network infrastructure can be efficiently accomplished with the highest levels of security.
