Turn Social Distancing Into an Opportunity to Create Social Closeness – DIM/ITACS Webinar
Tickets
Nov 11 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

In the spring of 2020, the internal comms team at Philip Morris International (PMI) faced a triple challenge.

A Master Class on IT Security: Roger Grimes Teaches you Phishing Mitigation

Thursday, February 8th | 1:00 PM GMT+8

 

Phishing attacks have come a long way from the spray-and-pray emails of just a few decades ago. Now they’re more targeted, more cunning and more dangerous. And this enormous security gap leaves you open to business email compromise, session hijacking, ransomware and more.

Join Roger Grimes, KnowBe4’s Data-Driven Defense Evangelist where he’ll share a comprehensive strategy for phishing mitigation. With 30+ years experience as a computer security consultant, instructor, and award-winning author, Roger has dedicated his life to making sure you’re prepared to defend against ever-present IT security threats like phishing.

In this webinar you’ll learn:

  • How to develop a comprehensive defense-in-depth plan for phishing mitigation
  • Ideas for security policies you can implement now
  • Technical controls all organizations should consider
  • Gotchas to watch out for with cybersecurity insurance
  • Why it’s critical to develop your organization’s human firewall

Get the details you need to know now to protect your organization from phishing and social engineering attacks.

Speaker: Roger A. Grimes, Data-Driven Defense Evangelist 

He is a 30-year computer security professional, author of 12 books and over 1,000 national magazine articles. He frequently consults with the world’s largest and smallest companies, and militaries, and he has seen what does and doesn’t work. Grimes was a weekly security columnist for InfoWorld and CSO magazines from 2005 – 2019. He regularly presents at national computer security conferences, and has been interviewed by national magazines and radio shows, including Newsweek magazine and NPR’s All Things Considered. Roger is known for his often contrarian, fact-filled viewpoints.

Real-World AI Ethics – Webinar
Tickets
Feb 9 @ 5:00 am – 6:00 am

About this talk
Anyone working with AI needs to consider the ethics and governance of their data and the models they build. But there are so many ‘ethical frameworks’ out there, many with ambiguous and impractical statements, that it is difficult to know how to approach the issue or even where to start. In this webinar, Andrew Burgess, author, AI strategist, and qualified data ethics facilitator will take you through a practical AI and data ethics approach using the Open Data Institute’s Data Ethics Canvas. Using real-life examples, Andrew will explain the different risks associated with AI and how they can be mitigated. Andrew will be joined by Simone Larsson from Dataiku, who will take you through the new governance tools available in the latest version of DSS.

A management consultant, author, and speaker with over 25 years of experience, Andrew is considered an authority on innovative and disruptive technologies, including Artificial Intelligence and Robotic Process Automation. He is regularly invited to speak at conferences on these subjects. He is the author of ‘The Executive Guide to Artificial Intelligence (Palgrave MacMillan, 2018), Visiting Senior Fellow in AI and RPA at Loughborough University, and Expert-in-Residence for AI at Imperial College’s Enterprise Lab. He is a prolific writer on the ‘future of work’ and is frequently published in industry magazines and blogs.

Speakers:
– Andrew Burgess (AI Strategist & Founder at Greenhouse Intelligence)
– Simone Larsson (AI Strategy & Evangelism at Dataiku)
