Highlights

At CLOUDSEC Hong Kong 2016, attendees will join Timothy Mallach, Supervisory Special Agent of FBI in the discussion around today’s security landscape which requires a different mindset from yesteryear. With cyberattacks increasing in frequency and intensity, organizations need to accept that they will not be able to keep threats out forever. Addressing the inevitability of being breached, the conference will look at the shifts in mindset that organizations must take and how companies must rethink their IT organizational strategy, as well as finding the right person to plan that strategy. CLOUDSEC Hong Kong 2016 also features a panel discussion where we zero in on real-world factors that pose security challenges to enterprises, what contributes to the success of a cybersecurity strategy, and what is the cost of good security for organizations versus a poor one.

Key Speakers:

Mr Timothy Mallach, Supervisory Special Agent of FBI
Mr Charles Mok, Legistrative Councillor (IT), HKSAR
Mr Frankie Leung, Program Director, Professional Information Security Association

“Cyberattacks are increasingly rampant and it is vital for organizations to prepare for the unexpected threats and upgrade their security strategies to address new digital challenges better,” said Bob Hung, General Manager – Hong Kong & Taiwan of Trend Micro. “Data is precious and that is what cyberattackers aim for as they craft different attack methods. This makes a conference platform like CLOUDSEC valuable, as it collates the expertise of the industry’s leaders and delivers it through interesting presentations and discussions, to help attendees understand and respond to the latest cybersecurity issues and challenges better.”
