    problems within a set timeframe, with prizes awarded to the first to
    come up with the answer.

“With virtualization and the evolution to 5G, carrier networks are going
through unprecedented change. Add increased competition from OTT and
digital players to this, and CSPs are facing unique challenges,” said
Bruce Kelley, Jr., NETSCOUT’s senior vice president, chief technology
officer. “In my session, I will lay out the strategic vision for
NETSCOUT solutions and how we are providing unparalleled visibility to
devices, subscribers, network infrastructure services and experiences
that also extends to business analytics and security. This smart
visibility has never been more needed than now.”

“As we grow more reliant on our interconnected world, the threat from
bad actors bent on compromising critical networks grows more perilous
every day. IT and security professionals are under pressure to stay on
top of the latest trends,” said Hardik Modi, NETSCOUT’s senior director,
Threat Intelligence. “At ENGAGE 19, I will be discussing NETSCOUT’s
latest Threat Intelligence Report and sharing the latest trends we are
seeing across the security threat landscape. Attendees will learn what
our ASERT and threat intelligence teams are seeing, testing, and acting
on to drive awareness in the marketplace.”
