Event Information
About this event
Dear members,
Our monthly event for October 2021 will be held on Wednesday, 20 Oct 2021 via a virtual webinar. The link to the webinar will be shared with all registered attendees.
Presentation Topic: Teaching Cybersecurity in our Homes
In a world where the lines have blurred between work and office environment, our homes are no longer just hubs for our family and personal lives but have become an extension of work and school as well. As our daily routines were constantly disrupted between lockdowns and alert level changes, our homes turned into full-time workplaces, playgrounds, daycares, schools and cinemas. Along with these changes, the threat actors have also shifted their attention to remote workers and parents who are struggling to juggle work and family commitments, students/children who could not be closely supervised, and the vulnerable population who have limited access to support.
We as IT risk and security professionals, are at the forefront of these struggles and have the slight advantage of being across most of these attacks. But how do you think everyone else would stack up? Is everyone else in your homes adequately protected from these malicious actors?
Speaker: Mark Pacat
Mark is an IT security professional and a full-time father of 2 wonderful kids. He is part of Grant Thornton's Operational Advisory services having spent a good chunk of 15 years in the IT risk and security space.
We hope you will be able to join us virtually for this event!
