Session I 

One of the most valuable assets to an organization is its data. However, implementing a comprehensive strategy to protect company information proves challenging and, in some cases, impossible. Our guest speaker, Justin Wilkins from Varonis, will discuss the manner in which company employees (knowingly and unknowingly) compromise security; as well as the methods and analytics needed to mitigate risks related to insider threats and cyberattacks.

Join us for a discussion on how to best identify risks to company IP and the strategies to leverage to minimize that risk.
