About Cyber Security World Conference 2014
Cyber security is never again a term to ignore for individuals or corporations. The daily activities of all
Americans, the country’s global economic prominence and worldwide security rely on a safe and resilient
cyberspace. Unfortunately, the number of cyber-attacks has increased dramatically over the last years, exposing
confidential personal and business data, disrupting critical operations, and imposing exorbitantly high costs on the
economy overall.
Just recently, J.P. Morgan Chase, America’s largest commercial bank with $2.39 trillion in assets, announced that
about 76 million households and 7 million of small-business customers had been affected by a cyber attack in one
of the most sweeping disclosed global breaches. The bank said the unknown attackers stole customers’ contact
information, which included names, email addresses, phone numbers and addresses, affected an amount
equivalent to two-thirds of American households.
A brief walk down memory lane of some the biggest recent cyber-attacks now include Adobe Systems,
Automated Data Processing, Citigroup, E*Trade Financial, Fidelity Investments, Home Depot, HSBC, Nasdaq
OMX, Neiman Marcus, Target and Wal-mart. It is not unlikely to consider that the information of every
American has already been compromised in any of these publicly disclosed attacks.
Renowned information security experts and innovative service providers will present at Cyber Security World
Conference 2014 their latest thinking to hundreds of senior executives focused on protecting enterprises and
governmental agencies. Topics that Cyber Security World Conference 2014 will discuss include:
Key Considerations about Security in the Internet of Things Age
Cyber Security Megatrends Security Professionals can’t Ignore Today
How Hackers Really Operate to Obtain Financial Data
Strengthening the Security of Industry-wide Technology Infrastructure
Cyber Security and its Role in the Overall Security of the United States
Designing and Managing Effective Information Security Programs
Cyber Security World Conference 2014 is produced by Golden Networking, the premier networking community
for business and technology executives, entrepreneurs and investors. Panelists, speakers and sponsors are invited
