Cybersecurity
Boardroom Workshop 2015
(http://www.cybersecurityboardroomworkshop.com),
How Boards of Directors and CXOs Can Build the Proper Foundation to
Address Today's Information Security Challenges, is specifically
designed for boards of directors and CEOs of public and private firms
looking for new ways to gain and maintain their competitive
advantages. Business executives with responsibility for IT, finance,
compliance, risk management and procurement as well as entrepreneurs
and innovators are welcome to add their points of view to the debate.
As
cyber attacks become more common, companies are increasingly
investing in cyber security protections. But even with the best
systems in place, hackers can still easily break into a company's
network if workers aren't also being diligent about security. Cyber
criminals have gotten much better at disguising malicious email to
make it look more legitimate. So employees need to be vigilant and
ask questions about all of the email they receive that raises even
the slightest suspicion, which is most likely not what happened at
some of the high-profile cyber security breaches that have been in
the headlines recently: Adobe, ADP, E*Trade, Fidelity, Home Depot,
JPMorgan Chase, Nasdaq, Neiman Marcus, Sony, Target and Wal-mart.
Cybersecurity
Boardroom Workshop 2015 is a must-attend forum for board members,
CEOs, CFOs, COOs and executive managers in New York City, London,
Dubai, Bangkok, Jakarta, Sydney, Taipei, Seoul and Tokyo who need to
become more educated about cyber security in order to ask questions
that are strategic yet granular enough to address company specifics.
Cybersecurity Boardroom Workshop 2015 is targeted at corporate
decision-makers for whom cybersecurity readiness is a relatively new
yet critically important area to be intelligently conversant about.
