Cyber Security and the CFO: Facing the Threat Head-On

Companies large and small, public and private are vulnerable to a cyber-attack.  These attacks range from theft of intellectual property that provide our economy with a competitive advantage, to attacks that disrupt key networks and services, destroy critical systems and data, and undermine trust in our day-to-day operations. Hackers which can be individuals, organizations and nation-states seem to be one step ahead of the government which spends billions of dollars protecting sensitive information. 

The FEI CT/Westchester Chapter welcomes cyber expert Richard Santalesa who enlighten us on what we can do right now to identify, understand and mitigate the impending threat of a cyber attack.
