Please join us on Friday November 22, 2024 for Super Cyber Friday.

Our topic of discussion will be “Hacking E-Crime Trends: An hour of critical thinking about staying on top of an ever-evolving threat landscape.”

Joining David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series for this discussion will be:

Jason Baker, principal security consultant, GuidePoint Security

Howard Holton, CTO and industry analyst, GigaOm

In preparation for our discussion, think about the following:

How has increased focus from law enforcement impacted ransomware?

What does the ransomware ecosystem look like today? What groups are the most active right now?

What are the industry impacts of increases in companies paying ransoms?

How can organizations use e-crime trends to inform their security program?

How do financially motivated attacks different from cyberespionage and other motivations?

What kind of activity are we seeing from state-sponsored groups? Where are we seeing increased activity?

What does the online fraud landscape look like?

Are we seeing threat actors using GenAI tools at scale? What are the use cases?

How do you see organizations using GenAI to help with resilience and defense?

It all starts at 1 PM Eastern/10 AM Pacific. At the end of the hour [2 PM Eastern/11 AM Pacific] we'll switch gears to our meetup where everyone will get a chance to chat face to face.

HUGE thanks to our sponsor GuidePoint Security
