Company IT is exposed to increasingly complex threats these days. Whereas the issue a few years ago was to take individual measures towards endpoint security, companies now have to take active steps to protect their data and networks from unwanted data leakage, insider threats or attacks from the social web. Data protection has become a hot topic for society in general, with intelligent solutions for the storage and secure handling of data concerning customers, employees and citizens offered by IT providers coming into more widespread use. Increasingly professional cybercrime and industrial espionage are equally pressing issues. An important issue for company managers and IT decision-makers, therefore.

To this end the IT Trends Security congress offers information and advice, and presents concrete security solutions. Decision-makers and IT professionals will profit from high-quality lectures and individual consultations at the exhibition stands.

The IT Trends Security event has evolved across the wider Ruhr area to become a hallmark for IT solutions. The convention and accompanying exhibition is organised by Networker NRW, and has been co-hosted since 2005 by the Chamber of Industry and Commerce for the Central Ruhr Valley, the City of Bochum and Eurobits.
