Stuxnet: Last Year's News or Game Changer?

With recent media full of hacks on Sony, Sega, the IMF, the CIA and more, it’s tempting to forget Stuxnet, the turning point in IT security in 2010.

• The effectiveness of SIEM to protect your enterprise against this type of new threat.

Key terms and topics addressed:
