Session Description
Let the cyber wars begin! The freedom of search put China’s censors on edge and on attack online, offline, and in the media. We look at the delicate diplomatic dance of corporations, technology, and China. Global cyber security experts assess what every board member and senior executive needs to know about the state of security in corporate systems. What happens when sovereign nations cyber attack? What happens when there are data breaches potentially exposing hundreds of millions of credit and debit cardholders? What can board members do now to make sure that they are protecting their digital assets?
