MILFORD, Conn., July 21 /PRNewswire/ --

    WHAT:      With security frequently cited as the top barrier to enterprise
               adoption of cloud computing, leading IT executives will debate
               the cloud security argument at a special panel session at Open
               Group Toronto 2009.

    WHY:       Proponents cite that cloud computing can be more secure than
               traditional IT because of centralized security controls, the
               ability of some cloud computing services to limit access to
               specific, authorized IP addresses, and robust, granular access
               controls.  Those concerned about the inherent security of cloud
               computing cite a myriad of security issues, including the
               security of multi-tenant architectures, data security,
               compliance and audit, and a host of other concerns.

    SPEAKERS:  Doug Howard, Chief Strategy Officer, Perimeter eSecurity
               Glenn Brunette, Distinguished Engineer and Chief Security
                Architect, Sun Microsystems
               Chris Hoff, Director of Cloud and Virtualization Solutions,
                Cisco and Cloud Security Alliance
               Dr. Richard Reiner, CEO, Enomaly

               Toronto Marriott Down Town Eaton Centre
