Staff Report From Metro Atlanta CEO

Monday, October 9th, 2017

"CyberHub Summit is an essential conference for C-suite level executives to attend," says Karin Zalcberg, Israeli-born US-based Cybersecurity executive and CEO of CyberHub Summit. "Look at what has happened at EQUIFAX." The Atlanta-based credit monitoring company hacking has left more than 90% of Americans exposed and vulnerable to serious cybercrime. Says Zalcberg, "If you're a CEO, there is no excuse for not knowing how to protect your company's data, and more importantly, your company's customers."

Featuring a hefty international-based group of experts, with presenters like renowned NYC-based Cybersecurity expert, Joseph Steinberg, and Oren Bratt of IMI Systems, CyberHub Summit will take on the challenge of educating the C-Suite, and they have some famous help. The ABC Shark Tank star and Cybersecurity Expert, Robert Herjavec, of global cybersecurity services provider Herjavec Group, will be keynoting the conference. Herjavec Group is recognized as one of the world's most innovative cybersecurity firms, with expertise in consulting, identity & access management, managed services and incident response, for enterprise level organizations.  

"Unfortunately, 40% of all threats come from the inside a company," says Herjavec on CNBC. "You've got to have some way to monitor your own employees." Herjavec continues, "Really knowing and judging where your employees are going is key – does everybody need to have access to the payroll server?" Crucial insights like these will be shared by Herjavec, whose opinion on Cybersecurity preparedness is obvious: "Cybersecurity is always changing. Most of my time is spent at an executive level. Technology management used to be one IT directors job– not anymore. Security is everyone's job." Noting that Yahoo, Myspace, LinkedIn are all platforms that have been hacked, Herjavec says, "Data is a weapon now, we have to be more aware of what is going on to get in front of this.  This is the new cold war – the weapons just happen to be Cyber Weapons."

CyberHub Summit will take place in Atlanta, GA on November 8-9th, 2017. Visit the website at www.cyberhubsummit.com to register. Says Zalcberg, "Tickets are going fast. We have some of the best minds in Cybersecurity coming, and you won't want to miss hearing from Robert Herjavec from Shark Tank." Continuing, Zalcberg, an entrepreneur herself, says, "Cybersecurity preparedness is crucial to driving business success. Let's take it seriously and learn as much as can. It's the least we can do for the customers we serve."
