As tension builds over the balance between securing data and liberating it for commercial use, Bloomberg will gather chief technology and security officers on November 29, 2012 for the Bloomberg Enterprise Risk Conference: Responding to Cyber Threats in the Financial Services Industry.

The Summit, which will take place at Bloomberg's Headquarters in NYC, will focus specifically on utilizing intelligence driven security and balancing access and privacy within financial services. Sessions will explore strategies for securing confidential data and IT systems, as well as policy questions around data access and protecting information systems from attack.

Speakers will also discuss managing enterprise in the era of big data and look at how companies can keep up with the volume of data, which is only expected to grow. Additional topics will explore cybersecurity laws and legislation as well as mobile device security.
