Effective Risk Management: Security, Compliance and Disaster Recovery Conference / Trade Fair


April 05, 2006
8:00 AM - 7:00 AM

Description

Managing risk in the financial enterprise has become a cost of doing business, given the deluge of factors that can negatively impact the enterprise. A range of operational vulnerabilities, including network security and capacity planning, have become a C-level concern. Yet the benefits of incorporating a comprehensive risk management strategy more than offset the costs in the long-run. Indeed, without implementing effective risk management strategies, your firm could bear the ultimate costs of compromising your customer trust, your brand reputation and your bottom line.This conference will help attendees balance the trade-offs between the costs of implementing risk management solutions against the costs of not doing so.
