DALLAS, July 24, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Masergy, a leading provider of managed security solutions with a focus on managed detection and response, will host two seminars at Black Hat USA 2017 to help Chief Information Security Officers deal with the increasing complexity and volume of threats that their companies face.

David Venable, Vice President, Cybersecurity will review the tactics and methods companies can use to defend against today's cybersecurity wars, along with case studies of organizations that successfully defend against the constantly-growing volume of threats.
