Fyrsti morgunverðarfundur vetrarins verður haldinn á Grand hótel Reykjavík þann 26. nóvember næstkomandi kl. 8:00.

Við ætlum að rifja upp og kafa nánar í tölvuöryggismál þar sem þau eru orðin mjög viðamikill þáttur í rekstri fyrirtækja og stofnanna.

Að þessu sinni verður efni fundarins: "Reynslan af innbroti og gagnastuldi á heimasíðu Vodafone - netöryggismál af sjónarhóli tölvuhakkarans". Tveir sérfræðingar fjalla um efnið, hvor með sína nálgun.

Kjartan Briem framkvæmdastjóri tæknisviðs Vodafone fer yfir tölvuinnbrotið sem gert var hjá fyrirtækinu á dögunum, hvað þau hafa lært af því og hvernig þau hafa brugðist við.

Kjartan hefur verið framkvæmdastjóri tæknisviðs Vodafone frá því í nóvember 2009, og hefur gegnt stjórnendastöðum á tæknisviði í fyrirtækinu síðan árið 2000. Kjartan hefur haldið nokkur erindi um innbrotið sem hafa verið vel sótt og þótt áhugaverð.

Í framhaldinu tekur Theódór Gíslason til máls en hann er einn af helstu sérfræðingum landsins í tölvuöryggismálum og hefur mikla þekkingu á árásaprófunum, öryggisveikleikum og þróun öryggismála. Theódór starfaði sem ráðgjafi í tölvuöryggismálum hjá TERIS, Capacent og KPMG-ráðgjöf, en í dag er hann einn af eigendum upplýsingaöryggisfyrirtækisins Syndis og sinnir ráðgjöf í upplýsingaöryggi fyrir mörg íslensk og erlend fyrirtæki auk þess að sinna stundakennslu á sínu sérsviði við Háskóla Íslands og Háskólann í Reykjavík. Á fundinum mun hann ræða á mannamáli helstu aðferðir tölvuglæpamanna, hvernig þeir verða sífellt færari og hvaða grundvallarreglum þarf að fylgja til að minnka líkur á tölvuinnbrotum.

Þeir félagar þekkja mjög vel til þessara mála og því er mikill fengur að fá þá á morgunverðarfund hjá félaginu.

Fundurinn hefst kl. 8:30 en morgunverður verður í boði frá kl. 8:00. Vinsamlegast skráið þátttöku á fie@fie.is í síðasta lagi á hádegi 24. nóvember. Fundargjald er 2.800 kr.

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) & Securing Mobile Technologies.

Personal computing devices are becoming more and more portable — laptops, tablets, smart phones, USB thumb drives, etc., securing the sensitive information stored on those devices is more important than ever. The small size and portability of these devices mean they can be easily lost or stolen, placing both personal as well as corporate data at risk.

This course will address the challenges in securing data and processing, limiting communication to designated parties, protecting sensitive data from the loss of a mobile device and methodologies for designing and implementing a viable, controlled and sustainable enterprise-wide BYOD policy.
