Security Experts to Address the Imminent Threat of Cyber Attacks Targeting Consumer and Business Data

What:

The New York Institute of Technology’s (NYIT) Ninth Annual Cybersecurity Conference brings together cyber experts from academia, business, and government. Hosted by NYIT’s College of Engineering and Computing Sciences, this year’s event will address:

• Cyber Defense Against Attacks: How Industry Is Addressing Evolving Threats
• Blockchain and Cyber Vulnerabilities
• Cybersecurity Challenges in the Banking, Energy, and Health Care Sectors
• Data Analytics, AI, and Security
• Accelerating Cyber Education and Technologies

Who:

Senior Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer Michael Iwanoff for iconectiv, an authoritative partner of the global communications industry connecting more than two billion people every day, will join a panel of cyber security experts during the event’s first session, Cyber Defense Against Attacks: How the Industry is Addressing Evolving Threats.

During this discussion, Iwanoff and industry experts will address how the growth of technology has completely changed the game, providing even more access to consumer and private information. With the ever growing IoT and enterprises relying heavily on technology to store business data on physical and virtual networks, the security chain has become extremely vulnerable. Simply put, there is money to be made in accessing that data – it cannot be ignored or dismissed – and those who haven’t been impacted, know they must address it now or regret it later.

Iwanoff, a security expert with more than 15 years of industry experience, has successfully built and implemented comprehensive IT security, risk, and compliance programs for global organizations. His professional experience spans telecom and financial services at leading organizations including AIG, Barclays, Comcast, and AT&T.
