Data breaches: Who has been named and shamed in the last year?: Find out more on 24 September!

24 August 2009

Infosecurity Magazine’s 2009 Virtual Conference on Information Security will look at recent data breaches in both public and private sectors in a session headed by Bloor Research, CheckPoint and the Open Security Foundation.

Despite scathing media coverage and the threat of introducing a data breach disclosure law, the public are continuously exposed to high profile data breaches in both the public and private sectors.

The publicity really started with HMRC losing details on 25 million Britons. Almost two years later, we are still questioning how safe our data is.

Nigel Stanley, security practice leader at Bloor Research, Nick Lowe, regional director Northern Europe at CheckPoint, and David Shettle, volunteer, CTO and vice president at the Open Security Foundation will look at how these breaches happened and how organisations can protect themselves against data loss.

They will also discuss media coverage of data breaches and how a data breach disclosure law could change things.

You can find further details and register for this event by registering for The 2009 Virtual Conference on Information Security on 24 September.
