In the second eIQcast, John and Mike discuss the need to automate security operations and some of the issues therein. The reality is that attacks have not stopped, but in this kind of macro-economic environment the opportunity to add resources to defend against attacks is limited. Thus we all need to work more effectively and more efficiently, which is what security automation is all about.

In this inaugural episode of the eIQcast, Mike Rothman and John Linkous decompose a particularly nasty attack called the "low and slow" attack, which is designed to make existing defenses obsolete. Listeners will understand how the low and slow attack works and also how to defend against it using security management technology (like eIQ's SecureVue).
