The theme of the conference is discussions and sharing of ideas between a dedicated community of peers and top leaders of cybersecurity to prevent potential challenges to the data and ensure secure handling and communication of sensitive and important information. The conference extends up to 4 days and will give the participants exposure to new trends and practices in cybersecurity through in-depth training, tutorials, thought-provoking keynotes, and expert-led sessions.
In order to keep pace with the requirements of advanced IT management and Information Security, it is necessary to keep program managers and IT staff up to date accordingly. As Padgett-Beale is linked with the internet and IT in a number of ways, it is highly needed for concerning employees to stay aware of the new dimensions of information security.
Our firm deals with 3 main areas of business which are directly linked with IT. The first area is marketing and the use of social media and the internet for advertisement and promotion of the products. The second area is related to operations of the call center and support center of the firm for dealing with clients, and third use is about the daily operations and facilities. According to statistics, in recent years, cyber stacks have increased a great deal against hotel chains and theft of passwords, IP addresses, information about security installments, and procedures implemented an employee's credentials have been reported (Winder, 2019). So to avoid these potential risks, it is very important to have the updated infrastructure, aware human resource, and robust security policy and plan.
In case of applying before 24 January or participating with the group of more than 5, there is a special discount on ticket with amount of $ 1,845 per head. Registration. Meals are included in the program, and the hotel is 70$ per night per head and the cumulative cost, including tickets and hotel rent for one person, is approximately 2000$, which is quite reasonable ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"2CDwwy74","properties":{"formattedCitation":"({\\i{}Per Diem Rates Look-Up}, n.d.)","plainCitation":"(Per Diem Rates Look-Up, n.d.)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":368,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/5OlhLovK/items/5RAP9IDY"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/5OlhLovK/items/5RAP9IDY"],"itemData":{"id":368,"type":"webpage","abstract":"Rates are set by fiscal year, effective October 1 each year.
