California DFPI’s Cybersecurity Threat Briefing on August 18

On August 18, the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) will host a webinar on cybersecurity for financial institutions. The webinar will be held in collaboration with SecureTheVillage.

This cybersecurity threat briefing is designed to help financial institutions (and other fintech organizations) meet cyber-crime challenges.

Cybercriminals are raising their game and cybercrime is growing. To effectively meet today’s cybersecurity challenges, it’s important for financial service organizations to understand today’s threat landscape and ensure their defenses continue to appropriately respond to the threats. Participants will leave with a better understanding of the current cybercrime threat landscape and what they need to do about it.

Agenda

• Update on cyber threats and defenses with supervisory Special Agent (SSA) Michael Sohn from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
• Common opportunities to improve third-party risk (DFPI).
• SecureTheVillage’s innovative new program to help financial service organizations measurably improve their cybersecurity.
• Los Angeles County Department of Economic Opportunity programs to help financial service companies acquire technical staff to meet their cybersecurity needs.
