Guest Speaker: Matt Shufeldt Matt Shufeldt will be presenting on a topic we all love (when advocating for budget) and all hate (when that time arrives), data breaches.
Data Breaches: Strive to Prevent, Be Quick to React and Know your Roles and Obligations. It is every Information Security professional and senior executive's nightmare. Two dreaded words, Data Breach. Now more than ever it is important to know the different types and size of breaches.

Finally, we will discuss the different factors you should consider when you think you might have been compromised or you know you have been compromised.
