WhatWorks in Penetration Testing: "Improving System Health with Care New England"
Wednesday, January 25, 2006, at 1:00 PM EST (1800 UTC/GMT)
Featuring: Larry Pesce
https://www.sans.org/webcasts/show.php?webcastid=90646
Sponsored by Core Security Technologies

HIPAA regulatory compliance, coupled with the numerous false positives,
produced by vulnerability scanning products prompted Care New England
to investigate alternate solutions that would give them a more
accurate view of the security of their network. The large healthcare
organization turned to a product that, based on a demonstration at
a SANS conference, it believed would be significantly easier to use
and far more effective at uncovering security problems on its diverse
network of affiliates. Join us as Larry Pesce tells how penetration
testing with CORE IMPACT enabled him to easily test the security
of his network, identify what resources were exposed and determine
if his current security investments were actually detecting and
preventing attacks!

Larry Pesce is an information security manager at Care New England. His
primary responsibilities include day to day security operations
(mitigation, remediation and incident response) penetration testing,
IDS management, firewall configuration and security policies. Larry
has been employed at Care New England or their subsidiaries for over
7 years. Some of his previous experience is in network engineering,
web design and desktop computing support.
