AGENDA

Join us for one of our favorite traditions, meet new people and reconnect with old friends as we celebrate women in our industry!

We look forward to hearing our keynote speaker, April Falcon Doss, Executive Director of the Georgetown Institute for Technology Law and Policy, a part Georgetown University's Tech and Society initiative, whose interdisciplinary programs educate lawyers, policymakers, and the public about the challenges arising emerging technologies and the ways that law and policy can adapt to address them. Hear her take on the cyber threat landscape, online disinformation, data privacy, and how to bridge the law-and-technology divide.

This interactive workshop revolves around a simulated ransomware attack.  As the situation unfolds, the company's incident response team--and by extent, the participants--will ask questions and make decisions regarding the system restoration, negotiation, payment, legal ramifications, notification, public relations, and more.  Each time new information is revealed, there will be a break in the action for live table discussion.  Following the discussions, participants will help guide the company's next actions by making selections on their mobile phones

Because ransomware represents a costly business interruption and data breach threat to both insurers and their policyholders, NetDiligence created a Cyber Insurance Ransomware Advisory Group. The senior managers and subject matter experts who participate as members of the Cyber Insurance Ransomware Advisory Group freely contribute their time and resources to help us bring timely and useful ransomware information to the greater cyber community. Join us for this roundtable discussion and learn about the evolving ransomware landscape and attack vectors/methods from the world’s most prominent cyber forensics and data breach remediation firms.  Come away from this session with current sector intelligence to help develop effective policy coverage strategies and tactical policyholder due-diligence requirements in order to make cost-effective, ransomware-specific cyber insurance products available to the policyholders.
