The start- and end-points of today's enterprise networks are radically different than they were 10 years ago. IT staffs no longer have control over every endpoint connecting to the network, leading to a host of problems where access control is weak or nonexistent. In this lesson, guest instructor Ben Rothke, Director of Security Technology Implementation for a large financial services company, provides tactics for endpoint security, policies for controlling endpoints and insight as to where endpoint security technology is headed.
