Information Leak Prevention and Web Security Experts to Present at
Industry's Leading Security Event
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Websense, Inc. (Nasdaq:
WBSN), today announced that Websense CEO Gene Hodges will keynote at the
RSA Conference 2007 in Hall D at the Moscone Center on Thursday, Feb. 8, at
2:45 p.m. PT. Hodges will discuss where organizations should invest their
resources to fight and win against the threats of today and tomorrow,
challenging the notion that companies must spend the majority of their
security budget combating yesterday's threats.
Hodges' keynote entitled "Security Uncovered: The Naked Truth" will
focus on how today's fast-moving and targeted internal and external
security threats are not being adequately addressed by the traditional
security vendors' "sit and wait" approach to security.
Hodges joined Websense in early 2006 to drive the organization's
growth, set the strategic vision and manage the day-to-day global
operations of the company. He joined from McAfee, Inc., where he served as
president.

threats and participate in panels focused on how organizations can avoid
malicious code attacks and protect against information leaks.
