e-crime congress 2009

Maximising Commercial Opportunity and Enterprise Potential Through Security
Current evidence shows that financial losses have risen substantially over the past year as a result of data compromises. Predictions indicate that the current economic climate will result in an increase in financial crime, fraud, identity theft, and a heightened threat from insiders.

Therefore protecting and retaining your solvent clients is no longer a matter of discretionary budget. Securing data, preventing compromises, and mitigating against commercially damaging intrusions is now fundamental to ensuring customer loyalty and confidence.

Now, more than ever, the risk matrix for securing infrastructure and protecting valuable assets is complex and challenging. Compliance with regulations and security standards, outsourcing and offshoring, cloud computing, and ensuring protection against complex attack codes and vulnerability exploits all add up to the following conclusion:

Your enterprise needs to do all it can to correctly assess and address the financial implications of cyber-attacks. Effective security policies, practices, and procedures are now critical to the continued viability of your organisation’s operational aims.

What the market says about the e-Crime Congress
During last year I identified an attack pattern which had been discussed at the 2007 congress, this allowed me to make a rapid identification and we took the immediate steps required to close the attack before any damage had been done.
Chief Information Security Officer, Atos Origin UK

The education seminars were particularly helpful and one has probably given me the answer to a problem I have been trying to resolve for some time.
Group Security Director, Littlewoods Retail Ltd

The e-Crime Congress is a perfect place for networking and exchanging experiences.
Detective Inspector, IT-Crime Section, National Criminal Police Sweden
