Board of directors need toaddress the growing tension betweenobligations to fulfill cyber security legalrequirements and companies efforts totake advantage of technologies whichincrease cyber vulnerabilities such asmobile computing devices, flash drives,smartphones, social networks, and cloudcomputing.This audio CD-ROM considers whethercompanies are overlooking this issue byadopting policies that appear to treat thebenefits of new technologies as immediateand substantial, the compromises to cybersecurity as speculative, and the damagefrom a security breach as remote andcontainable. It also addresses the cybersecurity regulations that in-house andoutside counsel may soon be obligated tocomply with as a result of decisions acompany has made concerning potentiallyvulnerable technologies. The programraises the issue of whether the emergingcyber security regulations may beencouraging a culture of compliance andpaper exercises rather than security thatprotects critical assets and finds andcorrects cyber vulnerabilities before theycan be exploited. Lastly, it discussesrecent court decisions that suggest a shiftin judicial views of cyber security and agrowing willingness by judges to prevententerprises from shifting the risks ofsecurity deficiencies to their customers.Item no. : AD11200392Format : CD-ROM (Win)Duration : 90 minutesCopyright : 2012Price : USD 150.00BUSINESS AND VALUATIONISSUES THAT WILLPREVENT YOUR CLIENTS'BUY-SELL AGREEMENTSFROM WORKINGBy Z.
