Course description
This seminar will focus on global cyber threat activity and how it has evolved over the past six years. Global cyber thought leaders will discuss its pattern of evolution and how its impact can no long be minimized and placed on the back burner of your business's strategy.
You will gain a deeper understanding of how cyber intelligence has evolved and perhaps more important, how the intention of threat activity, on a global scale, is being culturally legitimized as a feasible way to garner intelligence.
It is imperative that every executive in your organization understands the current cyber threat landscape and how security and control becomes the responsibility of every employee. By attending this session you will gain the knowledge required to educate your organization and protect it from the next cyber security threat.
This session is sponsored by Seccuris and McAfee and is free to all registrants. It is being held at the Westin Hotel. Register here...
