Please note that the webcasts associated with the Cyber Shark Event are available on-demand.
In looking at what event topics are trending on govevents.com, security and more specifically, cyber security, continue to rise to the top in terms of sheer numbers of events. For good reason though--every week seems to bring a new report of a security breach in a major consumer brand. In fact, just last week, the largest breach ever reported was attributed to a Russian crime ring that stole 1.2 billion username and password combinations from companies and individuals worldwide. Of course the Edward Snowden leak at NSA is still top of mind as he was just granted another three-year stay in Russia. While this news is real and alarming, it is coming at such a steady rate that some people are starting to tune it out, reading headlines and saying, "oh, another one." Even with the media attention, it is important to look at the reality of cyber threats.
