In the ever-growing virtual environment known as cyberspace, cyber-attacks can result in great damage to individuals, companies, or governments. These attacks can include stealing an organization’s intellectual property, confiscating online bank accounts, creating and distributing viruses on other computers, posting confidential business information on the Internet and disrupting a country’s critical national infrastructure. Sensitive information exposures happen all the time. Most go unreported. Data, either stored in the cloud or within your four walls is your responsibility. Without adequate information on the security and compliance profile of the data, including its ownership, access controls, audits and classification, protection of information can fall short of expectations and put sensitive data at risk.



In this webinar PPC and Concept Searching will discuss how you can use Concept Searching’s Smart Content Framework™ to design a solid Information Architecture which supports cyber security and information assurance in your organization. The session will illustrate why this information architecture will help you to secure the weakest links and to proactively identify data exposures before they happen.



What you will take away from this session:

• How conceptClassifier can be used to develop a taxonomy of security terms and organizational defined descriptors that are aligned with your nomenclature

• Learn how to develop a detailed set of enterprise-specific requirements for security terms and descriptors

• Identify precautions your organization must take to protect sensitive information

• Improve risk management and reduce operating costs associated with cyber security attacks and data privacy exposures



Speakers:

David Stepp, Senior Principal – Cyber Security at PPC

Don Miller, Vice President of Sales at Concept Searching
