Assuring Trust in the Age of Business Email Compromise

Nick Holland

Executive Editor, ISMG

Email is the de-facto means of communication for businesses globally. And, with good reason – it’s immediate, universal and inexpensive. However, like much of digital communication today, the people behind the creation of the medium didn’t anticipate the degree of adoption and the inherent security risks from fraud.

So, with businesses around the globe so reliant on email for their daily existence, despite inherent flaws, what can be done to protect this channel? Is there a way to build a better mousetrap?

If you’re looking for new answers to these questions, then join Nick Holland at the 2019 RSA Conference for an exclusive roundtable discussion where he’ll draw from the experiences of the attendees, offering thoughts on how they have been able to ensure that their security organizations play a productive role in the future of secure email for both inbound and outbound communication.

Joining Nick to provide expert insight and case studies will be David Appelbaum, CMO for Valimail.

Discussion topics will include:

How has the email threat landscape evolved in the age of cloud computing?
What do you identify as your greatest vulnerabilities today?
What are best practices for articulating email spoofing threats to executives?
How can the communication divide between security and marketing around email security best be addressed?
Where are you on the roadmap to protecting from email spoofing?
