Cybersecurity: Mitigating Risk
Our information systems are highly vulnerable and increasingly subject to attack. The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Homeland Security have recently noted that the risks associated with cybersecurity have increased dramatically as a result of more frequent and severe intrusions. Across business and the government, there is heightened awareness of the vulnerability of information systems, communication networks and physical plants and a recognition of the additional obligations to reduce the exposure and mitigate the effects of cyberattacks.

With most experts predicting that cyberattacks will become even more frequent and sophisticated, those that have previously performed risk assessments and considered risk mitigation need to revisit their risk assessments and mitigation strategies. And, those that have never performed risk assessments or mitigated risk now have an urgent need.
Join Pillsbury and Woodruff-Sawyer on March 29 for a breakfast briefing on cybersecurity. Our keynote speaker is Rodney Joffe, the Senior Technologist of NeuStar Inc. who will share his views from the front lines and discuss the latest cyberthreats and risks that companies face. He will even give you a sneak peek into the cyber underworld -- live online -- and watch stolen assets being bought and sold in real time, between criminals in almost every country, as if they were normal legal items.
The program will focus on what companies need to do now to prepare for cyberattacks, including:
- What to do to help prevent cyberattacks
- How to respond to a cyberattack
- How to address the SEC's new disclosure obligations
- What to do to insure against losses that accompany a cyberattack
