A Sold-out and Successful CyberSalon ... For Ladies Only!

 
 

We couldn't have asked for a better start to 2017 at Lisa Bernard's SecuritySpeak!  At our first Dr. Robert L. Bernard Memorial Lecture, women from IT, financial services, and industry gathered to get their cyber-safety on - and they did!  With formal remarks followed by a workshop led by Ami Soifer, we dug into the science and systems behind hacking and then moved immediately to enhance our cyber-security as a practical matter.  Ami is the CEO of The TNS Group, a managed IT consulting firm based in Connecticut and serving firms in the Global 2000.  He is a world-class engineer of IT designs and considered by many to be one of the world's foremost secure application delivery experts.  Warm and personable, Ami engaged the group in his inimitable style from the get-go and then proceeded to bring the complexities of cyber-matters to practical levels.  We left the CyberSalon both feeling more secure as well as being more secure with regard to our online lives, devices and our and our clients' data.  Let this program be the first of many as Ami is prepared to bring his expertise to others in this forum.  At SecuritySpeak, we say that we "bring a human face to security matters."  Ami's CyberSalon... For Ladies Only has become the model for this mission.
