National Series: Real World IT Security

As professionals we're trying our best to protect our customer's information, store it securely, on secure websites, behind layers of firewalls, authentication and encryption. All the while our customers are trying their best to share every personal detail with the world, use the simplest passwords possible, and then run everything from their own device which they refuse to lock-down or patch! No wonder there's a security breach in the news every week! 

In this session we'll review what attacks are actually happening in the real world, show how they're being put together and see what's the biggest risk - technology or people?

5:30pm for a 6pm start. Light refreshments included.
