Oct 24, 2012, 1:51 ETTactical FLEX, Inc. to Host Webinar on How to Optimize and Unleash the Powerful SIEM Features of Aanval SAS™ (Situational Awareness System) IDS Console SEATTLE, October 24, 2012 -- Tactical FLEX, Inc., a global provider of information security, vulnerability, and risk management software solutions, today announced a new educational webinar entitled “Aanval SAS™ Tips and Tricks.” According to SecurityWeek, “Over the past few years the market has developed new expectations from the network and applications security industry. One of the most challenging expectations is that information security systems be able to not only detect attacks, but also prevent or mitigate them in real-time.” With “the growth in the sophistication and frequency of attacks over the last few years”, SecurityWeek points out that in most cases “the human security expert cannot comply with the required response time.” Using this insight, the concept of automating situational awareness and utilizing SIEM technology can help IT departments efficiently monitor and analyze network activities as well as improve security by accelerating detections and thwarting attacks. Tactical FLEX, Inc. understands the importance of real-time threat management and the importance of automation to help efficiently and accurately identify real threats and vulnerabilities before cyber criminals find them. Join our Support Specialist for an informative discussion on how to optimize and unleash the powerful SIEM features of Aanval SAS™ IDS Console to obtain an accurate assessment of security risks and complete network visibility of your IT infrastructures. Learn troubleshooting tips and tricks, and how to optimize your Aanval SAS™ console. Troubleshooting tips and tricks will cover such items as missing events or sensors, downloading Snort and Suricata signatures, and using the new and advanced GeoLocation technology. Aanval SAS™ (Situational Awareness System) is loaded with robust and powerful features, and we want you to make the most of them to ensure your networks are secured. Optimization tips will include Sensor Management Tools (SMTs), Situational Awareness, Event Correlational features, using the Advanced Search and Reporting features, and more.
