How you react and respond to an incident is almost as important as how you defend against one. Once an incident has happened, it's critical to take the right steps and follow and tested and well-conceived process. You'll be better equipped to help your organization recover quickly and completely and without incurring additional penalties for late responses. Larry Dietz, Managing Director of Information Security and Legal Support Services for Tal Global, will share his rock-solid process.

Eric Cowperthwaite has also just joined the agenda. Eric will be speaking on the hidden costs of downtime. As the CSO of Providence Health and Services, one of the largest healthcare concerns in the Pacific Northwest, Cowperthwaite has experience with breaches and downtime. He'll outline how to examine your infrastructure to best insulate against those hidden costs when the inevitable breach comes through.

The CSO Executive Seminar Series on Application Security will cover everything you need to know about securing mission-critical applications -- both the technologies you'll need, as well as the policies and procedures you would be well advised to wrap around them. A well-conceived application security strategy involves not only the technology and the manner in which it is deployed – it also places an equal emphasis on managing how that technology is used.
