The CyberSecurity Summit will focus on “The State of Enterprise IT Security” and what it means for businesses worldwide. Organizations around the world now find themselves targeted everyday by attacks initiated by criminals seeking monetary profit or as an act of cyberwarfare. The half-day event will examine the day-to-day realities of businesses and governments struggling to protect their invaluable digital assets against a rising tide of advanced threats. The event will also provide expert perspectives on how threats to government-run critical infrastructure and privately-maintained financial services operations could impact the global economy.
