Senior Government, Military Leaders & Private Sector to Talk Insider Threat Programs & Gaining Executive Support at Insider Threat Alliance Summit

Washington, DC, February 06, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Establishing and maintaining an effective and efficient insider threat program requires a multitude of capabilities working in tandem to tackle a human problem of malicious or non-malicious intent towards causing some level of harm to an organization; from effective program management and employee buy-in and training to employing the most efficient technical tool sets. There is no one singular solution, and yet all pieces of an insider threat program are as relevant as the next.

For this iteration, the topic areas will include:

1. Leadership considerations and perspectives towards implementing an InT program
2. How do you articulate the value in the context that is meaningful and creates actionable intelligence to Executive stakeholders? Clearly defining what could happen by not dedicating resources to an InT program.
3. What tools are available to help Executive leadership navigate and understand the threat landscape?
4. Where in the Executive Office should efforts be focused to achieve buy-in commitment?
5. Capabilities of current InT programs that are proving effective and have a level of measurability

ITA Executive Committee Member Mr. Tim Murphy, President, Thomson Reuters Special Services, LLC (TRSS), and former Deputy Director, FBI will serve as Chairman.

Several speakers include:
Ms. Patricia Stokes, SES, Director, Defense Vetting Directorate (DVD), Defense Security Service (DSS)
