Presentation

Target, Sony, Anthem...have you seen the news...Is your organization's cybersecurity strategy protecting the information that is most valuable to your business? Can you explain your organization's cybersecurity strategy to others, including internal stakeholders and potential insurance partners?

In today's interconnected environment, vendors, partners, and suppliers have all become a potential source of compromise. But safeguarding all data at the highest level is just not realistic or possible. Rather than treating everything equally, companies must now identify and protect the "crown jewels'; those business assets that are critical to future cash flow. This session will describe an approach that focuses on prioritizing and protecting assets according to their value to the enterprise.
