nexTier CEO to Present at RSA Conference 2009

nexTier CEO Tarique Mustafa, will be speaking next week at the security industry's most renowned event, RSA Conference 2009. His presentation focuses on emerging security threats and how the next frontier in data leak prevention (DLP) technologies need to address evasion attacks and malicious data leaks.

During the talk, he demonstrates several core nexTier technologies that show how semantic analysis combined with DLP is uniquely suited to thwart these more sophisticated new threats.

RSA Conference runs April 20-24, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Mustafa's presentation is Wednesday, April 22 at 10:40 am PT in Blue 104.

Wow, what a start to the year.
First, we were named by Network World Computing to their “10 IT Security Companies To Watch" at the tail end of last year.

Then we just returned from picking up Frost & Sullivan's Award for Excellence in Award for Network Security Infrastructure Protection Excellence in Technology in San Antonio. This was a great honor as the independent award recognized us for "strategic innovation in information security."

Achyuthanandan Sampath, Research Analyst, Frost & Sullivan said...

"..selected for developing a path-breaking semantic intelligence-based Data Leak Prevention (DLP) technology that is capable of comprehensively monitoring and blocking unauthorized access to business-sensitive data in transmission . . . with its innovative approach to DLP, the Silicon Valley-based startup has helped ignite a new-era in DLP technologies that require little to no human intervention to secure data. nexTier’s technology has also arrived at a critical juncture when DLP is gaining credence in enterprises and IT administrators are looking for new and better approaches to secure data leaks.”
