A sound defence needs more than technology. Alongside advancements in machine learning and artificial intelligence, there remains a vital role for human insight and ability. At heart, cyber is a field of conflict – a contest over access to data. To allocate resources effectively and win that fight, defenders need consider the attacker’s perspective. Only by understanding what is under threat and what the likely attacks are can defenders allocate defences effectively.

Pondurance Founder Ron Pelletier will discuss:
· Breach Season basics: who is affected and what to expect
· The main drivers causing the intrusions and breaches?
· Pre-season tactics and strategies to prepare
· What companies can do to reduce the likelihood of occurrence

Planning on doing business overseas? Establishing a new office in a foreign land, or selling online to consumers in a new country? When going over company requirements for working in your new neighbourhood, don’t forget to review corporate privacy practices.

When it comes to privacy, expectations, safeguard minimums and rights of the data subject can vary between jurisdictions. From Canada and the United States, the European Union with its new GDPR, Japan, Australia, even between China and Hong Kong, there’s no single set of global standards. Fortunately however, many privacy legislations do contain common ground. There are also ways to proactively account for the differences.

Information and Privacy Professional Victoria McIntosh presents a taste of privacy across the globe, with some of the ways businesses can prepare in dealing with data across borders.

About the presenter

Steve Durbin is Managing Director of the Information Security Forum (ISF). His main areas of specialism include strategy, information technology, cybersecurity and the emerging security threat landscape across both the corporate and personal environments.

Current forensic evidence is indicating that Ransomware, Extortion, and Phishing Attacks are the top attack vectors penetrating companies today. Although not as wide-spread, intellectual property theft and disgruntled employees is causing significant loss for many organizations as well. Given the scarcity of talent and resources, learn tips and actionable insights from the forensic lab on what you can do to protect your organization from these most prevalent threats.

Analysis shows that human actions are overwhelmingly at the heart of many data breaches, and cyber attackers are actively seeking to exploit this to compromise target systems.

If global organisations and nation states with their considerable resources and budgets are struggling to stem the flow of data breaches from this threat, what hope do ordinary businesses have of protecting themselves in 2019 and beyond?

Join us for a comprehensive and insightful webinar from Daryl Flack, CIO and Co-Founder of BLOCKPHISH, who will use examples drawn from real attacks to reveal why, if you invest in your staff, you can be more confident in your ability to be resilient to cyber-attacks.
