Join us with Fortinet for dinner at The Capital City Chop House on January 23rd as we cover a broad range of vital cybersecurity topics such as:

• Why protecting the perimeter is not sufficient
• Micro–segmenting your network to block malicious or unauthorized lateral movement
• Protecting your data from identity thieves and compromised devices
• Avoiding complex deployment and inherent security gaps caused by adding point solutions
• Empowering Zero Trust implementation with threat prevention and centralized security management
• How to determine if zero day threat enabled intruder onto network?

From the team that’s brought you successful NAC implementations for over 15 years! Join us for the second Tech Talk episode with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, Mark and Jen (and Ron if we can coax him) will cover:

• a vendor-neutral look at planning for NAC
• best and common practices plus “gotchas”
• phased approaches for implementing NAC
• vendor comparisons
• a short intro to FortiNAC including a demo
• updates on the product roadmap (at least whatever we can share that’s not NDA).

In future Tech Talks we’ll be covering Aruba’s ClearPass, and vendor-neutral topics of dynamic segmentation and Zero Trust Network architectures. This first NAC session will lay some groundwork for later.

Yes, you read correctly, join Carolina Advanced Digital and SentinelOne and get a $50 Amazon card just for listening in. We are partnering with SentinelOne to talk about why legacy anti-virus consistently fails to recognize these new threats, and how next-gen antivirus is designed to future proof your security investment. Only a select group of our customers are invited, so you will have an opportunity to talk with others about pain points and ask our expert the tough questions. Lucky you!
