But Johnny confirmed with his bank that the payment has already been made. How come!!! What happen? Is that insider problem? Is that due to external hacker? Is SpaceShip company cheating?

You are being invited to help him to conduct the investigation.

Within this hands-on workshop, we will cover two main parts – Day 1 (Acquisition) and Day 2 (Investigation and Analysis). So in Day 1 of the workshop, we will guide you from incident management, containment and identification of evidence. Then we will perform forensics acquisition from memory, computer disk, cloud computing environment through a number of demonstration and lab sessions. We will also explain the pitfalls and challenges in forensics acquisition.

On Day 2, we will switch our role to act as investigator. We will then understand where and what we can find and extract from various artefacts from Windows System, user profiles, files, network and emails. Ultimately, as Holmes, we will have to reconstruct and reassemble broken pieces of artefacts to become a reasonable case.

Digital Forensics can be fun if we know how to perform the steps with appropriate skills.

Happy-Hour Webinar (CPE)

Topic:Practical Data Privacy; Lessons Learned From Implementing Privacy in FinTech
Skills, Tools, Knowledge and Certifications to Support Your Journey

Date: Tuesday, 8 June 2021

Time: 6pm - 7pm

CPE Hour: 1 CPE

Online Platform: Zoom

Abstract: Privacy by Design; Privacy by Default is a more common phrase we are hearing in industry now, but where should companies start in their journey when upholding their employees / customers’ rights? Where to start when obtaining industry certifications like ISO27701 to build trust? And with the recent updates by tech giants on data privacy with relation to their products and services (e.g. iOS 14.5) and what are some key privacy technology challenges companies need to be prepared for. 

Jason helped drive ISO27701:2019 and NIST Privacy Framework for a company to be the first FinTech company worldwide to obtain both of these certifications. Join Jason as he discusses his strategy and lessons learned from driving these programs. Understand how organizations can benefit from obtaining data privacy certifications and how ISO27701 can help bridge the gap to other regional regulations like EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and how individual certifications like ISACA’s latest CDPSE can complement those who already hold ISACA certifications. 

Join this session if you are looking for practical guidance on implementing privacy in your organisation. This session will be conducted in English.

Topic: Tame that Overprivileged Cloud

Length: 1 Hour (1 CPE)

Abstract: If privilege management on prem was a walk in the park, in the cloud it’s a jungle.

Enterprises are struggling with identities swell, credentials sprawl and privilege creep from thousands of human and service identities, coupled with excessively permissive policies. Gartner has sounded the alarm: by 2023, 75% of cloud security failures will result from inadequate management of identities, access and privileges.

It’s time to tame the beast. In this webinar, Ermetic will discuss challenges, use cases and best practices for mitigating access risks and moving—in harmony with devops—toward least privilege in Cloud environments.

From the chaos following the recent U.S. election to false information about COVID-19 vaccinations, there seems to be an increasing proliferation of “fake news”, particularly on social media. At its worst, the impact can be very damaging, e.g., undermining efforts to combat the pandemic, causing market volatility, deepening divisions in society and even, it would seem, inciting violence.

In this webinar, our speaker, Professor Keith B Richburg of HKU and formerly an award- winning journalist with The Washington Post, will cover:

• Defining “fake news”. Is it a new phenomenon or is it just more pervasive?
• What are the common themes of fake news?
  
• Is the spread of misinformation just a social media problem?
  
• Differentiating fact from fiction, half-truths and opinion. 
  
• How to address the spread of fake news? Should it be policed?
  
• Responsibilities of different parties – governments, the media, the reader?
• Is there a role for forensic investigators?

Date: Wednesday, 10 March 2021

Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m.

Speaker: Professor Keith B. Richburg Director of the Journalism and Media Studies Centre and Professor of Practice, The University of Hong Kong

Language:  English

Enquiries:  Betsy Liang (betsyliang@hkicpa.org.hk); Ki Wong (wkwong@hkicpa.org.hk)
