Welcome to the third edition of INTEROP Mumbai In its third avatar in India, INTEROP is demonstrating why it is the leading global business technology event. Our ‘Call for Papers’ program, received an overwhelming response, with the initiative receiving over 200 submissions from the cream of the enterprise IT community. From the quality of the submissions received, we have every reason to believe that this year too, INTEROP will be everything that one has come to expect from the leading business technology event. We have over 50 speakers from all over the world spread across 30-plus sessions, six keynotes, over three plenary panel discussions, and several workshops and special sessions, in parallel tracks. Our approach has been to provide a mix of subject experts, experienced practitioners, distinguished analysts, technology gurus and promising young enterprise-IT professionals from India. The conference topics at INTEROP Mumbai 2011 reflect the changing nature of the industry, and accordingly, we have multiple sessions related to cloud and the impact of social computing on IT. If your company is a prominent player in the emerging world of clouds, you cannot afford to miss the sessions dedicated to the cloud at INTEROP Mumbai 2011. From setting up a cloud, deploying, architecting and measuring ROI – we have almost every possible topic covered with respect to the cloud. We even have an exclusive Cloud Zone, wherein leading vendors will demonstrate the latest tools and technologies with respect to cloud computing. With unprecedented proliferation of smartphones and tablets, IT departments are under pressure to allow employee-owned devices onto their enterprise networks. Accordingly, we have dedicated sessions from some of the most experienced enterprise IT professionals, who share with us the risks brought about by the consumerization of IT, and the approach that organizations must follow to cut down risks and secure information. For budding CIOs, we have practical case studies where experienced CIOs will share how they have executed particular projects. The added bonus is the large exhibit floor adjoining the conference halls, where delegates and visitors can see the latest technologies being showcased and demonstrated by leading technology vendors, all in one place. At UBM India, we have had an exciting time in building this platform, which is now the most definite hub for the enterprise global business community in India. We hope that you too enjoy this three-day exhibition-cum-conference, and sincerely believe that this platform will propel your organization’s journey to greater heights of excellence.

Topic: Enterprise journey to the Cloud: Will your network take you there? Abstract: Enterprises are facing the transformation of their networks as they deal with the explosion of information and demands from their employees, customers and partners. Moore’s Law is driving down component costs while improving capabilities, and virtualized data centers are reducing operational costs. Global broadband adoption, mobile phones and devices with increasing capabilities, and changing profiles of bandwidth consumption are driving on-demand access to the Internet, networks, and applications. This is the vision and opportunity of Cloud Computing. Because cloud computing fundamentally changes how we manage data, design applications, and build companies, Corporate IT must figure out how to evolve their enterprise network infrastructure to integrate cloud computing options, while ensuring that connectivity is delivered securely, reliably, and seamlessly to anyone, anything, anywhere, anytime. Can today’s network infrastructure support these new demands - not just in terms of feeds & speeds but also include intelligence and a superior user experience? What has to happen to today’s network to enable it to support cloud computing? Come hear Cisco’s John McCool discuss how innovations in virtualization, compute, storage, and networking are forging a clear path to enterprise cloud adoption and how you can evolve your existing infrastructure investments to deliver on user demands while driving new enterprise business models with cloud computing. He will share innovative technologies designed for the campus and the data center that change the rules of networking and can accelerate your path to the cloud.

Lessons for CIOs from the Mumbai Dabbawala Dr Pawan Agrawal President of Kamlabai Educational and Charitable Trust CEO of Mumbai Dabbawala Education Centre At the INTEROP Mumbai 2011 conference, Dr Pawan Agrawal, shares some unique insights into a supply chain that runs without technology and has a prestigious Six Sigma certification. What would you call a human supply chain network that is massive in scale, uses no technology, but still manages to deliver over 2 lakh lunch boxes (also called the ‘Dabba’) everyday with no errors? The word ‘miracle’ perhaps is too modest to describe this phenomenon. No wonder, it is an enviable feat. The Dabbawalas also have to their credit, a Six Sigma rating, and of course, a place on the syllabus of multiple management books of international repute. The BBC has produced a documentary on the Dabbawalas, and Prince Charles had to fit in with the Dabbawalas schedule (not vice versa), since the Dabbawalas have a fixed schedule where the customer is the only king. Impressed with the service, Princes Charles invited the Dabbawalas to his wedding with Camilla Parkes Bowes.How does an organization with no sophisticated knowledge and usage of technology manage to create a supply chain that is the envy of global organizations? To know more, attend an interactive session at the hub of business technology, INTEROP Mumbai 2011.
Thursday, 29th September, 2011 | 03:15 pm - 04:30 pm
Deep Dive into SQL Injection Slavik Markovich VP & CTO, Database Security McAfee One of the attack vectors prevalently used by hackers today is SQL injection. The biggest breach of credit card data to date, at Heartland Payment Systems, was initiated using this attack. Although SQL injection is well understood, it still stars in OWASP top ten attack problems and many web sites and applications are still vulnerable. In this presentation, Slavik will show how hackers use advanced techniques to exploit SQL injection vulnerabilities and steal information from the compromised application and other databases on the network. Reconnaissance techniques, error manipulation, blind SQL injection, worms and back-doors will be explained and demonstrated against live Oracle servers and a demo web application. It is crucial for information security professionals, DBAs and developers to understand these techniques in order to thwart them.

Abstract: One of the most frequent concerns we hear expressed by CISO’s is that it is difficult to communicate complex security plans to largely non-technical board members. Problems sometimes arrive as soon as a CISO says the simple truth - that there’s no way to provide absolute security. But when strategic plans aren’t understood or embraced, funding can collapse, support can wane, and the train wrecks that follow can end companies and careers. Fortunately, there are good approaches you can take to get your message across - our panelists will talk through strategies that communicate the risks and benefits of security initiatives that make the case for justifying security project expenses, even when their costs are sometimes very large.

Abstract: With the advent of cloud computing, there has been a drastic increase in the enterprise applications consumed by end users – ranging from the applications managed in the on-premise datacenter, applications that are running on service provider IaaS clouds and the new PaaS and SaaS applications. This brings in two core issues around bridging the on-premise applications to the IaaS cloud apps and managing user identity across all the different applications. This session will focus on the network bridging and network based identity management solutions that enable administrators to get a single pane of glass view of all the enterprise applications and manage user provisioning, SSO to applications, self-service account management and usage monitoring and tracking all from a central management console. Managing user identity across on-premise applications and cloud-based applications is a complex task.

The Web 2.0 tools strengthen bond with both internal users & external customers by enabling continuous interactive engagement and intense focus on customer retention. Social Media marks “A shift from a Monologue Communication to a Dialogue”! Social Media ‘use’ and ‘application’ is not a matter of choice for an enterprise, it is a must. Customers and prospective customers are using social media reviews/collaboration to evaluate products and services, and taking decisions based on the same. Irrespective of enterprise focus on social media, people (current/prospective/ ex customers & employees) are talking about your enterprise, products and services and these conversations are critical to be hooked into, analyzed, and actions taken appropriately.

HALL TWO Topic: Tweet, Like, and Skype your network into
disaster
Speaker: Mohit Puri - Country Manager – WatchGuard Abstract: Today, it’s clear that the web is the most dangerous place on the Internet, and social networks are the frontlines of the web battle. While the security community theorizes about the potential damage from a global cyberwar, most businesses still don’t do a good job of defending against basic social network and web threats, largely because they lack the necessary security controls. How do you prevent threats that hide within traffic that your business must allow? In his presentation, attendees will understand how attackers leverage Web 2.0 applications to infiltrate your networks, and how real-world attackers target social networks today with attacks ranging from cyber bullying to drive-by download delivery. More importantly, the speaker will suggest some practical network defenses and controls that will give you back the reins to your network. Topic: Social media networks: The next frontier of corporate espionage?
Abstract: This session would depict a behind-the-scenes journey into the social media activities of a sample of 20 companies as well as their employees and partners who were mainly active on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. The objective of this experiment is to show how individual tidbits of information lying across social media, when seen together as an applied jigsaw puzzle, can reveal surprising insider information about the company that wouldn’t be readily available to outsiders. Through direct revelations, unmonitored tweets and logical deductions gathered from social media, it is possible for anyone including competitors to learn about an organization’s core values, hierarchy, communication style, organizational motivation, industry environment, employee morale, business challenges, systems and processes, competitive information and intellectual property. The aim here is to sensitize the attendee regarding this phenomenon by sharing an internal research that was done by the speaker’s team, studying 20 sample organizations active on social networking sites where the objective was to get as much information as possible about these organizations. The findings are entertaining and scary at the same time.

the CISO
Speaker: Chaitanya Kunthe - Head Consultancy Services - MIEL e-Security Abstract: Every CISO is in the quest for the Holy Grail of information Security, the ‘Security Metrics’. The CISO’s objective has always been two-fold. The first has been to know the current state of information security in his organization. This is obtained from kilobytes of logs or reams of filled forms! The second objective has been to present the correct picture to the management in a simple manner. This presentation tries to help the CISO achieve both. This session aims at helping the CISO in his quest for obtaining the right information, as well as presenting it in the right manner. It starts with the information the CISO needs to identify and analyze from the huge amount of data available at his disposal. The common sources of security related data in an organization and the ways to make them useful are analyzed. Once the right information is known, the CISO can take the right decisions. The second takeaway is the means to bring out the right picture to the management to enable them in their business. Topic: The true value of cloud analytics
