Building
off of the momentum of past successful conferences, Golden Networking
brings Cyber
Security World Conference 2015 New York City,
summit that will bring the latest thinking from security experts to
hundreds of senior executives focused on protecting enterprises'
information assets.
New
York, NY, USA (January 1, 2015) -- Headlines in recent weeks have
been consumed with the news of a cyberattack that targeted Sony's
movie studio as it geared to release The Interview, film that
describes a CIA attempt to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong-
un.
The
company now could face tens of millions of dollars in costs from the
massive computer hack that hobbled its operations for days. Major
costs include investigations into what happened, computer repairs or
replacements, and steps to prevent a future attack. Lost productivity
while operations were disrupted will add to the price tag.
The
attack, believed to be the worst of its type on a company on U.S.
soil, also hits Sony's reputation for a perceived failure to
safeguard information. Recently on October that U.S. President Barack
Obama signed an executive order to strengthen security measures for
federal credit cards, and urged banks and retailers to follow suit in
an effort to combat cyber theft and identity fraud. Several major
corporations would take steps to make their own systems more secure
and offer more customer protections as well.
These
recommendations came after many other large companies including Adobe
Systems, Automated Data Processing, Citigroup, E*Trade Financial,
Fidelity Investments, Home Depot, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Nasdaq OMX,
Neiman Marcus, Target and Wal-mart had suffered high-profile cyber
security breaches. It is not beyond the realm of possibilities to
think that today the information of every American has already been
compromised in any of these publicly disclosed attacks.
For
instance, JPMorgan Chase, America's largest bank with $2.39 trillion
in assets, has revealed that about 76 million households and 7
million of small-business customers have been impacted by a
cybersecurity attack in one of the most sweeping disclosed global
breaches. Unknown attackers stole customers' contact information,
which included names, email addresses, phone numbers and addresses,
affecting an amount equivalent to two-thirds of American households.
