Webinar – Changing of the Paradigms: Control Test Automation
Tickets
Jun 3 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Audit, Risk, and Compliance departments want to use automation to reduce costs, create efficiencies and enhance their value proposition to the business when managing risk; however, they do not have the internal capabilities to execute. Monitoring controls and control testing are often inefficient, expensive, and burdensome for organizations; however, many organizations do not have the internal capabilities to shift from a manual approach (susceptible to human error, with manual labor costs, and significant limitations on outcomes given the sub-sets of data used for controls /testing samples) to an automated approach. Our methodology and objective is to bring an automated continuous monitoring service offering to market, in order to help our clients identify their business case so that they are able to realize the benefits of control test automation in today’s market.

ISACA – Security & Privacy Compliance in Work from Home Situations
Tickets
Aug 6 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Mobile workers have always presented challenging risks to organizations. The huge increase in work-from-home has made the need to address the significant long-existing and new risks a top business priority.

Are your work-from-home personnel putting the information they access at risk? Do they comply with your organization’s security and privacy requirements within home offices? Where are hidden digital spies who can access business data in home offices?

Rebecca Herold, CEO of The Privacy Professor, and author of the new CRC Press book, “Security & Privacy when Working from Home & Travelling,” will describe what she has learned in 25+ years of being an information security and privacy leader, and what her research into these issues teaches all organizations about how to effectively manage information security and privacy risk management in work-from-home situations.

ISACA – Securing the Mass Work-from-Home Transition
Tickets
Aug 13 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

The COVID-19 pandemic changed how many of us get our work done in substantial ways – some of which may end up more longer-term changes.

One of the biggest changes that Adobe and many other large organizations had to go through – and quickly – is the mass enablement of productive working from home for employees around the world. This transition had to happen quickly – for Adobe and I’m sure many of you, almost overnight. But how do you go about protecting – or even improving – your current security posture with such a mass transition while also keeping everyone working and collaborating effectively?

Join Eric Anderson, Adobe’s Acting Director for Enterprise Security, as he discusses learnings and best practices, we gathered from making this transition for our over 22,000 employees worldwide.

Join this webinar and hear Eric speak about:

  • How our policies, procedures, preparations enable us to respond quickly to the changes required for our pandemic response
  • How we maintained our security risk posture during this transition
  • Some of the technology solutions we leveraged to help us make the transition
  • What we learned from this experience that is making how we go about security at Adobe even better

This presentation will share ideas and tips for how to conduct contextual inquiry research in the age of quarantine, including collaboration tools, remote-conferencing opportunities, and ways to involve other researchers, designers, and product owners in the research process.
