WEBWIRE

What: On Tuesday, October 28, 2008, top security executives from Cisco will host an Internet TV broadcast that continues the company’s broadcast series on data leakage. This session will reveal additional global research that shifts the spotlight from common employee risks and data leakage mistakes to companies and the effectiveness of their data protection policies. The program will cover:

* A recap of the first broadcast (http://tools.cisco.com/cmn/jsp/index.jsp?id=79228) on the most common data leakage risks and mistakes employees make around the world and their rationale for committing them.

* Real-world views of how the threat landscape affects data leakage, such as insider threats, data-specific attack trends, identity theft, and more.

* The state of corporate data protection and security policies - Do companies around the world have policies in place? How are security policies communicated? How are employees educated? Are security policies aligned with the reality of employees’ jobs? Why do employees break policy?

* Recommended practices from security practitioners on how to establish, communicate and evolve corporate data protection policies.

* Live Q&A: Media and analysts can ask questions throughout the broadcast.
