ePlus Presenting at the Rochester Security Summit 2017

HERNDON, VA – October 12, 2017 – ePlus inc. (NASDAQ NGS: PLUS – news) today announced that it will be participating in a technology panel presentation at the Rochester Security Summit 2017, being held October 19-20 at the Hyatt Regency in Rochester, NY. For the fourth straight year, ePlus is a Platinum Sponsor of the event.

Lee Waskevich, vice president of security solutions at ePlus, will be speaking at the panel: Empowering “Smart”-SecOps with Security Platforms

Abstract: Smartphone, Smart-Fridge, Smart-Car… It’s time for more intelligent security operations. The heart of security operations resides in the data. Security platforms focused on network, endpoint, and cloud along with available logging plane integrations can greatly increase the value and context in the data provided to security operations teams. The muscle of security operations resides in the intelligence driven choices that can make or break your response to security events. In this lively security panel we will explore a more intelligent approach to security operations.

Mr. Waskevich, along with fellow panelists, will provide insights on how to achieve a more effective security operations experience, exploring topics such as how:

• Increased threat context improves prevention efficacy
• Managed security operations can help accelerate gains from security platform investments
• Intelligent platforms and managed security operations help companies accelerate security program maturity

“ePlus is pleased to sponsor and present at the Rochester Security Summit again this year,” said Mr. Waskevich. “Security operations are top of mind for many organizations as they have spent much time and investment in architecting their cyber defenses.  A growing majority are finding difficulty in achieving measurable results due to lack of data context, lack of skilled resources, and lack of process. Our session looks to share the value companies can derive by leveraging features and abilities in their security platforms and how managed security services can use this context and their own abilities to create a stronger defensive environment.”
