CYBERSECURITY BOARDROOM WORKSHOP 2015
Karena
serangan cyber menjadi lebih umum, perusahaan semakin berinvestasi di
perlindungan keamanan cyber. Tetapi bahkan dengan sistem setempat
yang terbaikpun, hacker masih dapat dengan mudah masuk ke jaringan
perusahaan jika petugas tidak rajin menjaga keamanan. Penjahat cyber
telah menjadi jauh lebih baik dengan menyamarkan email berbahaya
untuk membuatnya terlihat lebih sah. Jadi karyawan perlu waspada dan
mengajukan pertanyaan terhadap semua email yang mereka terima yang
menimbulkan kecurigaan sekecil apapun, yang meskipun pelanggaran
keamanan cyber yang terjadi tidak sebesar seperti pada beberapa
perusahaan-perusahaan terkenal yang telah dimuat pada berita utama
baru-baru ini: Adobe, ADP, E * Trade, Fidelity, Home Depot, JPMorgan
Chase, Nasdaq, Neiman Marcus, Sony, Target dan Wal-mart.

ABOUT
KNIGHTMARE ON WALL STREET
Knightmare
on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest
Risk for Financial Markets is a thrilling minute-by-minute account of
the terrifying hours following Knight Capital's August 1, 2012
trading debacle, with news-breaking research regarding the firm's 17
years of tumultuous existence as an independent company. Knightmare
on Wall Street is the definitive behind-the-scenes story of Knight
Capital.
The
firm, founded by Kenneth Pasternak and Walter Raquet in 1995, had
seen its fortunes change as U.S. regulators made a series of changes
in the structure of financial markets and computers were
progressively expanding their share of trading. The Flash Crash, the
infamous 1,000 point drop of the DJIA on May 6, 2010 (the largest
one-day point decline in history), illustrated how market structure
problems could almost instantaneously cascade from one market
participant to the rest.
Thomas
Joyce, CEO of Knight Capital since 2002 and an unapologetic advocate
of electronic trading, had been scornful of those companies that
struggled to keep up with ever-changing stock markets. So it was
certainly shocking that at 9:30 A.M. on August 1, 2012, right after
the markets opened for the day, Knight Capital began issuing an
unprecedented number of erroneous orders into the market, due to an
error in installing new software. No rogue trader or regulatory
change; operational risk was passing the bill to Knight Capital and
becoming the biggest risk in the financial markets.
Knight
Capital announced later a staggering loss of $440 million. What
followed after this shocking announcement were several rounds of
desperate conversations with a number of vulture players who had
smelled opportunity and were readying themselves to pick up
bargain-priced pieces. On August 6, 2012, Joyce confirmed that Knight
Capital had struck a deal with Jefferies, TD Ameritrade, Blackstone,
GETCO, Stephens, and Stifel Financial, staving off collapse days
after the trading mishap.
While
Knight Capital was back in the game, its limping recovery quickly
prompted hungry competitors to bid for the entire company. On
December 19, 2012, the board decided to accept an acquisition
proposal from GETCO rather than Virtu Financial. For GETCO, acquiring
Knight Capital represented a gigantic fast forward step. For Knight
Capital, it was the end of its wild ride as an independent entity.
Knightmare
on Wall Street provides a fascinating account of what it took to
elevate the firm to the cusp of the retail investing revolution of
the late 1990s, to struggle through booms and busts, and to bring the
firm down, to end up ultimately being ignominiously bought up by a
competitor.
ABOUT
THE SPEED TRADERS
High-frequency
traders have been called many things-from masters of the universe and
market pioneers to exploiters, computer geeks, and even predators.
Everyone in the business of investing has an opinion of speed
traders, but how many really understand how they operate? The shadow
people of the investing world, today's high-frequency traders have
decidedly kept a low profile-until now. In this new title, The Speed
Traders, Mr. Perez opens the door to the secretive world of
high-frequency trading (HFT). Inside, prominent figures of HFT drop
their guard and speak with unprecedented candidness about their
trade.
Mr.
Perez begins with an overview of computerized trading, which formally
began on February 8, 1971, when NASDAQ launched the world's first
electronic market with 2,500 over-the-counter stocks and which has
evolved into the present-day practice of making multiple trades in a
matter of microseconds. He then picks the brains of today's top
players. Manoj Narang (Tradeworx), John Netto (M3 Capital), and Aaron
Lebovitz (Infinium Capital Management) are just a few of the
luminaries who decided to break their silence and speak openly to Mr.
Perez. Virtually all of the expertise available from the world of
speed trading is packed into these pages.
The
Speed Traders, published by McGraw-Hill Inc., is the most
comprehensive, revealing work available on the most important
development in trading in generations. High-frequency trading will no
doubt play an ever larger role as computer technology advances and
the global exchanges embrace fast electronic access. The Speed
Traders explains everything there is to know about how today's
high-frequency traders make millions-one cent at a time.
