what’s going on as far as best practices are what are the good companies or
are what are the good companies or
are what are the good companies or really top performers in cybersecurity
really top performers in cybersecurity
really top performers in cybersecurity doing and maybe all the companies can
doing and maybe all the companies can

top of the organization they had their
top of the organization they had their core security policies in place and they
core security policies in place and they
core security policies in place and they had a data PLASA fication scheme so they
had a data PLASA fication scheme so they
had a data PLASA fication scheme so they understood what we call the crown jewels
understood what we call the crown jewels
understood what we call the crown jewels in their data so I’m looking at this
in their data so I’m looking at this
in their data so I’m looking at this list and I’m wondering where is the
list and I’m wondering where is the
list and I’m wondering where is the technology okay I don’t see anything
technology okay I don’t see anything
technology okay I don’t see anything about the top performers in security are
about the top performers in security are
about the top performers in security are top performers because they have an
top performers because they have an

innovative computer network architecture
innovative computer network architecture I don’t see anything about them being
I don’t see anything about them being
I don’t see anything about them being top performance because they use a
top performance because they use a
top performance because they use a particular vendors intrusion detection
particular vendors intrusion detection
particular vendors intrusion detection and prevention system there’s no

twist okay we started out wondering how
twist okay we started out wondering how the business world can learn more about
the business world can learn more about
the business world can learn more about cybersecurity
cybersecurity
cybersecurity it turns out one of the best ways to
it turns out one of the best ways to
it turns out one of the best ways to make an impact on data breaches maybe
make an impact on data breaches maybe
make an impact on data breaches maybe for the cybersecurity world to learn
for the cybersecurity world to learn
for the cybersecurity world to learn more about business okay so I really
more about business okay so I really
more about business okay so I really reached the reach of the end in our
reached the reach of the end in our
reached the reach of the end in our short journey and short exploration of
short journey and short exploration of
short journey and short exploration of these two worlds and and the territory
these two worlds and and the territory
these two worlds and and the territory between them so I’d like to just take a
between them so I’d like to just take a
between them so I’d like to just take a moment more to highlight what we’ve seen
moment more to highlight what we’ve seen
moment more to highlight what we’ve seen along the way here’s the future that I’d
along the way here’s the future that I’d
along the way here’s the future that I’d like for us okay when you’re holding
like for us okay when you’re holding
like for us okay when you’re holding your credit card in your hand then you
your credit card in your hand then you
your credit card in your hand then you can be confident that no-one’s stolen
can be confident that no-one’s stolen
can be confident that no-one’s stolen the credit card numbers
the credit card numbers
the credit card numbers and when you’re in a room like this and
and when you’re in a room like this and
and when you’re in a room like this and a speaker says I like all those who are
a speaker says I like all those who are
a speaker says I like all those who are victims of identity theft and data
victims of identity theft and data
victims of identity theft and data breach – raise your hand no hands will
breach – raise your hand no hands will
breach – raise your hand no hands will go up but I know that’s not our current
go up but I know that’s not our current
go up but I know that’s not our current reality okay but I know also it’s not
reality okay but I know also it’s not
reality okay but I know also it’s not it’s not hopeless and if we listen to
it’s not hopeless and if we listen to
it’s not hopeless and if we listen to the research in this cyber security
the research in this cyber security
the research in this cyber security business interface we can move these
business interface we can move these

going to cause us to rethink those
going to cause us to rethink those images we used at the beginning and they

understands digital risk and for the technology side representing this
technology side representing this
technology side representing this technology side we still have our iconic
technology side we still have our iconic
technology side we still have our iconic computer hacker character but now he’s
computer hacker character but now he’s
computer hacker character but now he’s all dressed up and ready for business
