Event: National Cyber Security Centre, Netherlands (NCSC.NL) – Social Media & Cloud Computing are creating Threats to Privacy, Security and Liberty – A Global Perspective

Social Media has quickly woven itself into the very fabric of everyday life. This boom in sharing, even the most banal of details, has had a resounding impact on how our children, employees and colleagues communicate. Using case studies from the US and around the world, we’ll examine how people have lost jobs, college admissions, college degrees, fortunes and freedom through (un)social media. We’ll also investigate the rampant OVERCOLLECTION of customer and subscriber data by major corporations and governments.

We’ll also discuss some strategies and steps we can take to protect civil liberties and privacy in the age of Social Media.

Event: Brighttalk Webinar – https://www.brighttalk.com/r/Dvm – PCI Compliance – Pay Now or Pay Later

Many firms have chosen to become PCI compliant, others are content to sit by the sidelines and hope they won’t get caught. Countless other firms have engaged in PCI compliance efforts, only to fall short and have significant breaches

while being PCI compliant. Pay NOW for effective, common-sense based compliance, or pay LATER in FTC fines, PCI fines and lawsuits. Either way, you’re going to pay.
