News of the emergence of thousands of pieces of malware, tens of thousands of malicious websites, and hundreds of thousands of new zombie computers has become a daily reality that hardly anyone gets excited about. But translate the threat into money, or better, a potential loss of revenue or customers, and the business implications of what has often seemed to be a purely IT domain become apparent.

Subtitled "Battling Sophisticated Threats: Security Strategies For The Resilient Enterprise," this year’s IDC IT Security Roadshow takes a holistic approach to IT security, helping to see it as a business enabler rather than a necessary or even mandatory cost, and offers practical advice on developing effective security programs that respond to changes in IT and working paradigms, as well as in the legal framework.

IDC’s IT Security Roadshow 2010 -- a flagship regional event providing a platform for the exchange of ideas, experiences, and discussion on best practices among independent experts, analysts, industry leaders, and users of IT security solutions -- visits 25 major business centers in Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa.
