On April 14, 2020, Nicky Friedlander will speak at Incident Response Forum 2020, a virtual conference that will focus on the work of responding to data breaches. Nicky will speak on a panel beginning at 10:10 a.m., “Responding To Business Email Compromise Attacks.” This panel will address the threat of business email compromises (BECs), a threat that has grown exponentially in scope and breadth and affects businesses and high-net worth individuals. Panelists will discuss the latest developments in BEC attacks; the latest legal techniques, practices and countermeasures for such attacks; and the most effective methods and processes available for BEC recovery.
Nicky will be joined on the panel by Michael D’Ambrosio, the U.S. Secret Service Deputy Assistant Director for Cyber, as well as Allison Bender of Wilson Sonsini. The panel will be moderated by Tony Kim of Orrick.
