The growing phenomenon known as social networking is leaving many corporate directors questioning the merits, the value, and more importantly, the inherent risks this technology holds for their corporations. The uptake of social networking and the growing use of these sites, with or without corporate permission ( and sometimes knowledge), are hard to ignore. With corporate information and intellectual property available on sites such as slideshare.net and Facebook (125million users), directors should expect management to address issues such as information loss and data privacy. In his presentation Hein Gerber will provide you with a high-level understanding and appreciation of the broader application of this technology, and arm you with the knowledge you need to provide effective oversight of the management of the risks your corporation might face.
Our Speaker Hein Gerber Hein is a Director leading PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Information Security and Business Continuity Planning initiatives in British Columbia. He has more than 20 years relevant experience in information security, data privacy and data loss prevention in both the public and private sector and has worked in several countries before settling in Canada. He combines his first-hand experience and insight to address the security challenges organizations face today.
