Foley Partner Jennifer Rathburn, member of the firm’s Technology Transactions & Outsourcing Practice, will present at the Midwest Cyber Security Alliance meeting held in the Foley Milwaukee office on May 18, 2017. Foley is pleased to co-host this event with 4Discovery and HALOCK Security Labs.
Ransomware and business email compromise attacks can have a catastrophic impact on your business. These incidents are increasing in their sophistication and frequency. In fact, ransomware incidents alone increased by nearly 500% last year. Business email compromise threats have transitioned from the basements of annoying hackers to well-organized and sophisticated criminal enterprises that are engaged in W-2 theft scams, accounts payable fraud, and increasingly nasty ransomware variants. The business impact can be serious: business interruption, regulatory and legal ramifications, and reputational harm. Join the experts at the Midwest Cyber Security Alliance as we explore these alarming trends. Our experts will review:
- Emerging legal issues, including what your Board and C-Suite need to understand about the risks of these attacks
- Best practices for responding to these attacks
- Real-world case studies
- Practical ideas for preventing ransomware and business email incidents
