it take to successfully navigate the increasingly complex regulatory and

SESSIONS
Vision
With Execution - What System Integration is All About
Rex Lamb, President, Marex Group, Inc.
All
financial institutions have similar needs in operations, lending,
accounting, human resources and regulatory compliance. However,
institutions have different core systems and other applications in use.
This session will cover the fundamentals of system integration and
characteristics of a successful content management solution. Most
importantly, this session will show you what a content management
solution can do for you and how it will work with your existing
applications.
Information
Security - It’s All About the Internal Controls!
Mike Kirby, Chief Security Officer, ProNet Solutions
Jason Dutchak, Business Unit Manager, Financial Institutions, ProNet
Solutions
Presentation
While
many security firms have infiltrated the market with intrusion detection
products and products that secure mobile communication devices, the
focus has been on protecting the outside of the network (i.e., outside
the firewall). Unfortunately, the majority of malicious activity
surrounding Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) customer information thefts
occurs from within the bank. This session focuses on recommended
internal controls, network and host-based protection, mobile
communication devices security protocols, reporting required for
community banks and current best practices to guard against phishing and
pharming schemes.
System
Integrations: It’s Viable. It’s Essential. What Can It Do for You?
John Guyer, President, Nexsys
Presentation
While
the problems surrounding system integration are widely discussed, the
solutions themselves are rarely, if ever, mentioned. Many community
banks fail to consider the need for full system integrations. This
session focuses on why you can no longer afford to ignore integration
and provides options for achieving it. There are new and innovative
options for resolving key issues such as Customer Relationship
Management (CRM) initiatives and enhancing and streamlining the new
accounts process.

Secure
Your Business Communication: Email is a Privacy Risk!

solutions to prevent it from occurring at your institution.
Encrypted
Data - Movement, Storage & Disposal
Paul Murray, Director of Operations, Message Secure

occurrence and is an issue of concern for community banks. This session
explores this subject from the perspective of a CIO/CSO and provides an
outline of appropriate due diligence criteria for understanding,
accessing and mitigating your risk. Attend this session and leave
prepared to address current and future IT concerns within your
organization.
Talking
to your CEO about Information Security Jon Ramsey,
Chief Technology Officer, SecureWorks
Presentation
Legislation such as Gramm-Leach-Bliley
and Sarbanes-Oxley has made network security the law of the land, and the
risk of cyber-threats grows every day. But many CEOs - though well aware
of the need for regulatory compliance - continue to make decisions without
considering their impact to network security. As an IT professional, you
want your board to see the connection between your network's safety and
your bank's profitability and reputation. We'll equip you to do just that.
By the end of this session, you'll learn how to answer the three questions
your CEO really want answered - without using technical language; utilize
reports to tell your story; address compliance issues with expertise and
clarity and link security to your bank's vision.
