While traditionally cyber security has been viewed as “just” an IT issue, the recent environment of increasing security breaches has led to extreme consequences for companies of all sizes. This session will explore various case studies in which “not knowing” was not an excuse. Hear about some of the potential business issues that can arise from decreased cyber security measures, the costs associated, and how you can mitigate these outcomes to protect you and your business. Cyber security should be part of your DNA at this point – don’t be willfully negligent.

Online accounts are being compromised at a dramatic rate. Many different solutions have been developed including complex passwords, one-time tokens, digital certificates, smart cards, physical biometrics and more recently, behavioral biometrics. As authentication strategies increase along with the threats that exist, at what point does privacy trump security? In this unique panel, experts with differing perspectives will debate their views, address the perceived pros and cons, and offer insight as to what organizations can do to achieve a sustainable balance.

Risk management is understanding the ramifications of a cyber incident and its impact on individual assets and the organization as a whole. Effective risk management includes exercises such as developing integration and collaboration strategies, identifying various risk concerns and solutions among stakeholders, determining ‘true risk’ evaluations, and assessing risk of physical/cyber convergence. This panel will draw upon the expertise of multiple facets within this industry, including the legal and insurance fields in addition to the business and technology areas. The panelists will provide a 360°view of risk management and best practices. Audience members will gain insight into the processes and considerations of this mock “corporate risk council.”

Because of the highly sensitive nature of cyber incidents, companies and organizations are incredibly hesitant to disclose, let alone share data with others outside the organization. This session will examine the challenges facing organizations disclosing information, and more importantly, share knowledge and insight on strategies to accelerate sharing.

Cloud-based applications are often the darling of the CFO and nemesis of the CISO. How can an organization migrate to the cloud and give up control but maintain security? What cloud providers are seizing the opportunity to do it right and build in security? Or are they perpetuating the old model and sacrificing security and robustness in exchange for other priorities? An emerging attitude suggests that all large organizations are in an actively compromised state. Are we being realistic by thinking that secure applications can only be developed by internal teams or can cloud services actually be more secure? Listen in as our panelists describe what they've done to mitigate risk and improve the productivity and cost effectiveness of their IT environments.
