Thanks to our customers, ArcSight had another successful year of expansion and new developments. Robert Shaw, CEO of ArcSight, will share these successes and developments that ArcSight has experienced since last year's user conference.

Today the spheres of security, compliance and business operations are merging into corporate-wide initiatives. These maturing initiatives transcend traditional network and security solutions to encompass business processes, applications, user actions, organizational risk, and even physical infrastructure in an effort to ensure ongoing, automated compliance to industry and government regulations as well as organizational policies. As the IT or security strategist, tactician, or operator, you will be asked to support these expanding efforts. Tom Reilly, COO of ArcSight, and Reed Henry, SVP, Marketing and Business Development, will discuss these current market trends and how your ArcSight platform can be used to address these opportunities.

Remember when "security" was the topic of the day and everyone wanted to know more about it, and how to do it better? Application, user and business monitoring are now the next big things - driven by a variety of issues such as compliance, industry regulation, corporate policy and strategy, operational process and procedure. Just like how "voice and data" became one infrastructure, we're seeing network, security, application and users becoming one infrastructure in need of the same level of monitoring. Hugh Njemanze, CTO and founder of ArcSight, will discuss how with your ArcSight platform you can address this trend.
