The virtual event will start with a keynote at 11 am Eastern Time with Verizon Business' Bryan Sartin, who will discuss real-life investigations of major cyber breaches – including their causes and effects on well-known enterprises. Jason Straight, one of the industry's foremost legal experts on cyber security, will then discuss how the loss of customer data and intellectual property might affect a company's legal standing – and whether cyber insurance can offset risk. "The goal of this event – as with other Dark Reading events and content – is to go beyond the headlines and help businesses see the complete cyber security picture," said Tim Wilson, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Dark Reading. "In this full-day summit, we're bringing business executives and security professionals together sothat both groups can see how the right security decisions can benefit the whole enterprise – and how the wrong decisions can have a devastating effect." The online event will provide an executive-level view of security issues in an applicable way for both for CXOs and IT professionals. Additional sessions and panels will cover: How to measure risk and costs of IT security programs, building a plan for reacting to major data breaches, and an insider look at the goals of cyber-attacks and the methods that hackers use to select and infiltrate targeted companies.
