Computerworld Philippines Security Summit is back for the 2nd year running. It promises to be one of the biggest and most interactive ever – an event not to be missed by the nation's senior IT managers & IT executives.
Information Security is constantly evolving, year after year cyberattacks have been escalating in frequency, severity and impact. The recent incident of TalkTalk, a broadband and mobile provider for 4 million customers in the UK was hacked. The UK Telegraph reported that close to 1.2 million customers were affected out of which 15,000 personal details and 21,000 bank details were stolen. The company share price dropped 10 percent in london stock exchange in the first few hours of the attack.
The approach to combat security breaches has changed, preventive and detection methods have become increasingly ineffective against advanced threats. It is no longer an issue that concerns only information technology and security professionals; the impact has extended to the C-suite and boardroom.
Some of today's most significant business trends are the explosion of data analytics, the digitisation of business functions and service offerings, cloud advancements and mobility. However, the use of technology and data is creating more risk than ever. Governments all over the world have taken an active part in implementing national schemes to help the protection of data.
There are too many variables that contribute to the total impact of a corporate security breach. The consequences are also different, ranging from a slight increase in the total IT budget to significant financial and reputational damage. Only one thing is certain, the cost of a security breach is always higher than the cost of protection.
Join over 80 of your counterparts at the Computerworld Philippines Security Summit 2016 for a day of education, updates and networking as we hear from some of the industry's leading information security practitioners and providers.
