https://www.ispeech.org/text.to.speech


Presentation delivered at the Cybersecurity for the Board & C-Suite "What You Need to Know" Cyber Security Summit Sponsored by the Tarleton State University School of Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Strategic Studies' Institute for Homeland Security, Cybercrime and International Criminal Justice. Shawn Tuma, Cybersecurity & Data Privacy lawyer at Scheef & Stone, LLP in Frisco and Dallas, Texas.

The presentation date was September 13, 2016.

As a cybersecurity and privacy attorney, Shawn Tuma spends much of his time assisting clients proactively prepare for the legal aspects of cybersecurity incidents and respond to incidents when they occur. His work with management, legal, as well as the technology departments, and focus on the legal aspects of cybersecurity, gives him unique insight into how the non-technical areas of companies understand and evaluate cybersecurity.





In his presentation, Tuma will explain how, in his experience, the traditional fear, uncertainty, and doubt – the fear -- that has been used to “sell” cybersecurity has now gone too far and has created a feeling of hopelessness in many companies that has led many to simply quit trying. Instead of always focusing on the fear, he will explain how cybersecurity professionals should help empower companies to do what they can, even if they can’t do everything, so that they can at least improve their cybersecurity posture even if they can’t become “secure.”

Tuma will explain how recent legal and regulatory compliance developments encourage companies to take this approach by doing what is reasonable and provide specific action items that virtually all companies can implement to better themselves in this regard – especially if they find themselves in an incident response situation.
