Cybersecurity: No Longer Just an IT Issue

Presenter: Mark Fearer (Capitol Technology University)

Information security and physical security share at least the domains of insider threat, access control, and awareness training. Protecting the keys to the kingdom involves safeguarding assets.  What do you wish to protect? How valuable is what you wish to protect? An Impact Analysis identifies valuable assets via Risk Assessment. In comparing and contrasting information security with physical security we have in common at least gatekeepers, authentication, insider threats, awareness training, and the issues of factory defaults.  In this session, Mark Fearer, who manages a staff of information security examiners at the US Securities and Exchange Commission, will discuss the domains of insider threat, access control, and awareness training then compare and contrast information security with physical security.

 

A Matter of Trust

Presenter: Leonidas Charitos (BERG Capital Management)

Stories of criminals hiding ill-gotten gains in offshore trusts have become all too common. But a new age of transparency has begun as governments look to lift the veil covering this secretive world. Here we examine the history of offshore trusts and how fraudsters have gamed the system to their advantage.  This session will also examine some of the history of international trust centers (ITCs), the types of fraud perpetrated through these vehicles and the changing regulatory backdrop to make them more transparent.
