Foley Family Office Webinar: Cyber Attacks on Private Wealth Clients and Family Offices and Steps for Mitigating Your Risk

Over the past few years, cybercriminals have migrated their attacks from larger businesses and hardened targets to those where the defenses are low or non-existent – private wealth clients and family offices. Hackers always follow the path of least resistance and that means attacking your email, home, devices, and your family. However, there are things you can do to fight back and protect your finances, reputation, and personal/private pictures and data.

Today we will hear from Dr. Chris Pierson, CEO of BLACKCLOAK, a Concierge Cybersecurity & Privacy Protection Platform that represents private wealth and family offices in their digital lives. Chris will discuss the top five threats that are facing private wealth/family office clients, the controls or defenses that can mitigate these, and how to protect your privacy. Joining Chris will be Foley attorney Jennifer Urban. Jennifer is one of the founders of the Midwest Cyber Security Alliance, and counsels clients on data protection programs, data incident management, breach response and recovery, monetization of data and other privacy and security issues. Specifically we will cover:

• Your Privacy – risks of personal information, unemployment fraud, false loan applications
• Your Cybersecurity – risks to all of your devices
• Your Home – risks of an unsecure home and how you know
• Your Peace of Mind – other attacks, scam, and phishing
