Last year, The Ponemon Institute surveyed oil and gas risk security managers for their report. Of these surveyed, 68% stated that their company had suffered at least one security compromise involving information loss or operational disruption, in the past year. With those kinds of numbers floating around, it only makes sense why the Oil and Gas sector are scrambling to update their cyber security systems. With the increase in systems being breached, cyber security has to be considered a safety priority, as operational systems are at risk of being hacked, causing not only a great loss in financial assets, but also risk in employee endangerment as well.
The 2018 Summit on Cyber Security for Oil and Gas seeks to change the dynamics of the discussion around Cyber Security. This event will bring you the fundamentals of updating your cyber security systems for the purpose of protecting both your company assets, as well as your employees and those who are directly affected by these attacks. Bringing you a solution hands on approach, this gathering will call for the thought leaders to lead discussions to combat these challenges.
This year, unlike previous year, we will be changing our approach from a traditional conference structure, to one involving more networking and roundtable discussions to really develop real time solutions to impeding problems. Some of the highlight of this year's conference include:
- Networking Luncheon to expand your business ventures
- Demo drive to get an idea of the products to help ease the digitization transition
- Roundtable discussions focused on highly specific topics
- Hands- on activities to help provide solutions
- And many more!
Don't miss out on the opportunity to get the answers you seek!
