E Mail and Internet Monitoring: Complying with UK Law

Ibrahim Hasan - Solicitor and Director of Act Now Training (www.actnow.org.uk)
The alleged activities by journalists at the News of the World and other Murdoch owned newspapers means that surveillance and monitoring is a real hot topic at topic at present. Even when carrying out internal monitoring, public and private sector organisations have to be very careful.

Monitoring and recording of employees’ email, internet and telephone usage (with or without consent) is a particular legal minefield. This seminar provides a thorough examination of the law and practice in this area. We will look in detail at Part 1 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA), the Lawful Business Practice Regulations, the Human Rights Act 1998 and the Data Protection Act 1998.

Ibrahim Hasan is a recognised expert on data protection, freedom of information and surveillance law. He is very much in demand as a presenter at courses and conferences throughout the UK and abroad. He has conducted training sessions for many national organisations as well as local authorities and the NHS. Ibrahim’s articles have appeared in many publications including the Local Government Chronicle, Benefits Magazine, IRRV Insight Magazine and Solicitors Journal. He currently writes a regular FOI update column for the Law Society Gazette and is an occassional guest lecturer on the University of Northumbria’s LLM in Information Rights Law.

  • Marketing is about influence. It is about changing behaviour or nudging people towards a win-win decision. In today's market our customers interact with us across multiple touch points at irregular times and our job as marketers is to ensure this experience is as engaging as possible. But do we really understand all of the things that influence their decisions? By mapping our customers' sphere of influence we gain two significant advantages: more focused marketing and a tool that helps explain marketing's role in this brave new world to the businesses we work for.

    Mobile devices and applications are redefining business, revolutionizing productivity and driving competitive advantage. But as the volume of mobile applications increases, so too are mobile exploits. In the rush to enter the mobile software market, are we taking shortcuts that force us to repeat sins of the past? Like caching sensitive data, incomplete encryption and simple mistakes in coding? Don't let old-school vulnerabilities allow hackers to resurrect previously obsolete malware and exploits. With the experience of more than 1,400 incident response investigations, thousands of penetration tests and hundreds of application security tests, Trustwave SpiderLabs' Charles Henderson will show IT, security and development teams how to make sure they're not leaving sound security practices and due diligence behind as they develop new mobile applications.

If you’re an HIE or an HIX, it’s time to make sure all of those policies are in place, the workforce is trained and all of those other tasks that pave the road to HIPAA compliance.

Changing the compliance process from a periodical manual process into a continuous automated process ensures real time visibility into your compliance posture as well as the ability to react in real time to compliance issues rather than just after the fact. By overlaying the information collected with your enterprise IT asset model, the real time compliance information can also contribute to business driven risk management and help in making the right investment decisions in information security.

  • The New “Denial of Service” Attack: Why You May No Longer be Protected Recorded: Jun 12 2013 49 mins
    There was a time when distributed denial of service (DDOS) attacks threatened business operations by simply “flooding the network pipe” with traffic congestion. But that has all changed. Today’s sophisticated and targeted attacks use a multitude of vectors to overwhelm and infiltrate websites and online services – disrupting an enterprise’s online presence and customer’s ability to do business with the company under attack.

    While enterprises once could rely solely on their cloud service providers, ISPs and perimeter security to protect against these attacks, many are just now learning they are vulnerable to the new types of denial of service attacks. Some of these highly targeted attacks are taking down online services while others are being used as a diversionary tactic that is used to distract from an advanced malware attack.

    This presentation will cover examples of high profile, multi vector attacks that use stealth components and application vulnerabilities to shut down or infiltrate an enterprise’s network. Attendees will learn what types of attacks cloud providers and service providers are stopping and what attacks need to be handled on the internal enterprise network. The presentation will also cover a framework that will help organizations move toward a more secure stance against denial of service attacks.

  • BYOD - A Layered Approach to Mitigate Security Incidents Recorded: Jun 7 2013 49 mins

  • Investigating and Remediating Security Incidents: How Prepared Are You? Recorded: Jun 7 2013 38 mins
    Do you suspect you have a security incident? Time is of the essence. Your initial approach can determine how much damage the cyber security incident does—or does not do—to your organization.

    What if you could reduce the time it takes to investigate and remediate a security incident from days to minutes? Join us for this webcast to learn how you can improve your incident response by:

    •Locating every instance of a suspicious file across your endpoints and servers
    •Knowing if the malware executed, when, and what it did
    •Stopping an attack and preventing it from happening again
    •Analyzing files that arrive on your endpoints and servers to quickly determine their risk
  • Digital Forensics and Incident Response – Why You Need Them Both Recorded: Jun 7 2013 45 mins
    Nobody wants to fall sick, and yet we all do. By the same token, nobody expects their systems to be breached, and yet it happens. When that happens, companies need a blend of Digital Forensics and Incident Response expertise to deal with the incident. However, the distinction between these two related but different services and their roles in responding to a breach are often not clear to the victims of the breach. In this session, Vivek Chudgar, Director of FireEye Labs (APAC), will explain the key differences between Digital Forensics and Incident Response and demystify the role each service plays in effectively responding to a breach.
