PRESENTATION ABSTRACTS
3rd-Party Software Patching Using SCCM and Shavlik SCUPdates
Shavlik will be presenting a very informative session on 3rd Party Software Patching using SCCM and Shavlik's SCUPdates. SCCM does a great job of

distributing software and deploying updates for the latest Microsoft operating systems and Microsoft applications like Office 2007. What about Adobe

Reader and hundreds of other vulnerable applications? Shavlik SCUPdates address a major business pain (keeping up with 3rd party updates) and puts time

back into your schedule. Here is a way to leverage a single SCCM workflow for deploying updates for both Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications. Greg

Wright and John Rush will be here from Shavlik Technologies.

DCM vs ACS: An Audit Compliance Comparison
In this session, the pros and cons of both SCCM Desired Configuration Management (DCM) and OpsMgr Audit Collection Services (ACS) will be presented.

Are these competing features of the System Center platform or complimentary to one and another? Find out as 6-time Microsoft MVP, Duncan McAlynn,

presents "DCM vs. ACS: An Audit Compliance Comparison" and walk away with a clear understanding of how each of these technologies can play a part in

your overall security compliance strategy.
