DefenseStorm to Lead Cyberbreach Discussions at CU Leadership

ALPHARETTA, Ga. (July 24, 2019) – On average it takes more than nine months to identify and resolve a cyber breach. Think of the damage that can be inflicted before the attack is even fixed. To combat this, credit union executives are invited to join DefenseStorm’s VP of Customer Solutions Alex Hernandez at the CU Leadership Convention, July 30-August 2, 2019, at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas, where he’ll help prepare them for next-generation cyber attacks. DefenseStorm is a leading cloud-based cybersecurity and cybercompliance management provider to regional and community banks and credit unions.

Alex has more than 20 years of experience providing security solutions to some of the largest companies in the world. He is a recognized authority on internet security and has helped numerous Fortune 500 companies design and implement security solutions across email, web, application and network infrastructures. Conference attendees can hear Alex speak in these sessions:

  • Tuesday, July 30: Pre-Con Workshop #3, 1-5 p.m. — What CU Executives Need to Know & Do About Cybersecurity Now. Attendees will understand cyber risk preparedness, especially against the backdrop of increasing regulatory scrutiny and assessment frameworks, such as NCUA’s Automated Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (ACET).
  • Wednesday, July 31: Breakout Session, 2:10-2:45 p.m. and 3:15-4 p.m. — 3-Step Formula to Fortify Your Cybersecurity Defense Plan.
