Event Summary
As cyber incidents become increasingly sophisticated and complex, the Biden administration has to step up its initiatives to ensure the effective implementation of cybersecurity and privacy in both public and private sectors. One of these measures includes the recently signed Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity (EO 14028) which requires the Federal Government to work with the private sector in promoting a safer cyberspace and adapting to the dynamic virtual environment.
These recent and emerging cybersecurity trends underscore the need for companies and organizations to invest in a cybersecurity solution that will not just save them from cyber-attacks, but will also provide an efficient vision to mitigate future data breaches.
The Knowledge Group has invited key thought leaders and practitioners to provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the latest developments in cybersecurity. The speakers will also discuss helpful strategies to prevent cyber-attacks in this rapidly evolving digital landscape.
Key issues that will be covered in this course are:
• Overview of the Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity
• Cybersecurity Trends and Developments
• Common Types of Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities in 2021
• Strategies to Protect File from Most Advanced Threats
• 2022 Cybersecurity Forecasts
