About Alex Hernandez
Alex Hernandez brings more than 20 years of experience in providing security solutions to some of the largest companies in the world.
Hernandez is a recognized authority on Internet security, having worked with numerous Fortune 500 companies to design and implement security solutions across email, Web, application and network infrastructures. At DefenseStorm he helps to design and implement solutions that allow financial institutions to unify detection, investigation, reporting, and compliance into a single place to deliver cyber safety and soundness – while also making the daily work of cybersecurity and compliance professionals easier, so they can focus on stopping cyber-criminals and ensuring compliance instead of busy work.
Hernandez is regularly sought after by banking associations and state banking schools across the country to discuss cybersecurity and the evolving threat landscape as it relates to financial institutions; because while banks have similar needs to other corporations, they also have unique security needs that present a compelling requisite for a solution that keeps our country’s most sensitive financial data secure from foreign attackers, organized criminals and other bad actors. As an expert in the field of IT and security, he has spoken at regional and national IT/security conferences including Interop, RSA and ISSA.
Prior to DefenseStorm, Hernandez worked with several leading security solutions providers, including Barracuda Networks, Purewire, Secure Computing, CipherTrust, S1 and SecureWare.

Event Synopsis:
Financial institutions are easy targets for cyber criminals that immediate threat identification and management have now become vital parts of the defense procedure. Additionally, the increasing sophistication of cyber threats proves that simple mitigation strategies no longer suffice to counter attacks.
The gap between banking and cybersecurity is now becoming thinner, and clearly, banks and other financial institutions need to regularly evaluate and leverage their defense strategies.
Join a panel of key thought leaders and cyber security professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group as they bring the audience to a road beyond the basics of defending against malicious cyberattacks. Listen as they delve into an in-depth analysis of the current trends and strategies in identifying and managing such risks to strengthen the defense tactics of banks and other financial institutions.
In a live webcast, the speakers will discuss:
· The Thin Line Between Banking and Cybersecurity
· Figures and Statistics
· Worst Cyber-Thefts in 2017
· Identifying and Managing Risks
· Latest Cybersecurity Standards and Guidelines
· Defense Strategies
