Ryan Rodrigue will be speaking on the topic The Pandemic’s Impact on Security Controls on April 6 at 2:30 pm EST.
COVID-19 brought a wave of unprecedented challenges to companies all around the world. Capitalizing on the fear, panic, and confusion spurred by the pandemic, malicious actors ramped up their efforts to infiltrate systems and steal confidential data. As government mandated stay-at-home orders led to remote work, businesses had to adapt their security procedures to account for this unforeseen increase in risk of data breaches. During this presentation, we’ll dive into specific threats and attacks seen during the pandemic, how to secure your remote teleworking technologies from potential hazards, and ways to utilize the lessons you’ve learned during the pandemic to create an enhanced security posture that will last—even after the pandemic ends.
You’ll learn:
- Specific obstacles in business continuity planning encountered during the pandemic
- How to support colleagues and peers in a remote environment
- The negative impact of data breaches and the challenges faced while responding to such attacks
