Social Media & Cloud Computing Threats to Privacy, Security and Liberty, Session 3183
http://www.asis2012.org/Pages/Seminar-Home-Page.aspx

 

Social Media has quickly woven itself into the very fabric of everyday life. This boom in sharing, even the most banal of details, has had a resounding impact on how our children, employees and colleagues communicate.

Using case studies from the US and around the world, we’ll examine how people have lost jobs, college admissions, college degrees, fortunes and freedom through (un)social media.

Nassau County Bar Attorneys & Accountants Committee 2/27/12

Comments Off 27 February 2012

The Nassau County Bar Attorneys Accountants Committee has asked me to present on selected Cyber-Security topics.

 

When; Feb 27, 2012

Where: Nassau County Bar Association

15th & West Streets

Mineola, NY 11501

516-747-4070

 

One of the topics we discussed is the role of the of the Cyberforensics examiner when encountering Child Porn (CP).

 

The consensus from the Attorneys, Accountants and CFEs was that anything found during the examination is covered by attorney-client privilege.

That view conflicts with federal laws.  Unlike any other type of evidence, merely possessing more than 3 pieces of CP is a Federal Offense.

 

Attorneys have been prosecuted for possessing CP while they were conducting research on behalf of their client.  See the case of Attorney Leo Thomas Flynn at http://www.brunolaw.com/prosecution-serves-as-warning.html

 

My reading of the Leo Flynn case says that he won on a technicality – South Dakota state laws allow Attorneys to view/research CP during an active case.  As do several other states.

However, Federal law offers no such immunity.

 

Most Forensics Examiners, myself included, will notify Law Enforcement if/when I encounter CP during the course of a forensics examination.

Unlike attorneys, Cyberforensics Examiners, Accountants, etc do NOT have a attorney-client privilege shield, and CP is one of the exemptions to Attorney-client privilege.

 

In my opinion, I think the fundamental error that attorneys have with CP is that they think that if someone downloaded CP, it is a crime that occurred in the past.

If a client commits a crime and tells his or her attorney about a past-deed, the attorney is legally and morally obligated to stay silent about it.

 

However, having CP stored on your harddrive is NOT a crime in the past.  It is a crime in the present.

Therefore, if you as the attorney take

 

Think of CP as plutonium – if you found plutonium and put it in your pocket, the activity of finding plutonium occurred in the past.  The damage caused by radiation however, is an ongoing and present danger.  Similar rules apply here.  The client may have downloaded or acquired CP in the past, but the mere possession of it by anyone NOT in Law Enforcement, is illegal.

 

So attorneys, CFEs, etc, please interview your clients regarding CP before you take on the case – or as soon as you suspect it.

You CANNOT shield your client if they have more than 3 items of CP.

Possessing CP is an active crime, and must be reported to law enforcement asap.  Otherwise, the DAs office, FBI or Secret Service will put you through years of litigation hell, as they did Leo Thomas Flynnhttp://www.brunolaw.com/prosecution-serves-as-warning.html

On January 31, 2012, Raj Goel presented “How To Increase Your Social Capital” – practical tips on growing your influence, your reputation and your business in 2012.

The fact is, we ALL go to networking meetings, and wonder what we’re doing there.
In most networks, 20% of the members conduct 80% of the business.

Have you wondered how some people always seem to be at the networking events, in the newspaper or on TV?

Have you wondered how they can manage to run their businesses (or do ANY work at all) when they’re schmoozing all the time?

These connectors have converted networking from a chore to a rewarding activity – emotionally, psychologically and financially.

Raj Goel shared practical tips on how you too can increase your Social Capital in 2012.

ISC(2) Security Congress 2011

Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida

Lessons Learned From The FTC (Federal Trade Commission)

Summary:

The FTC has emerged as the leading investigator of privacy and security breaches, and has sanctioned companies and institutions across industries for breaches. This presentation reviews the FTC’s track record, examines lessons learned from each sanction, and provides guidance based on current and proposed regulations.

Abstract Text

Over the last decade, in the absence of a national Consumer Privacy Watchdog/Czar, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has set the standard for what it considers acceptable, and unacceptable behavior for companies and organizations conducting business within the United States.

The FTC doesn’t involve itself in the minutae of security standards ‘ala HIPAA, PCI, etc, nor does it dictate what protocols or technologies companies need to use. Rather, the FTC uses it’s Constitutional and Congressional mandate for regulating Interstate Commerce to hold companies accountable for their breaches.

This presentation will examine the FTC’s track record, put the sanctions in a larger context of privacy and security breaches, and most importantly, we will look at where the FTC is trending with the FTC Health Breach and RED FLAG regulations.

Whether you deal with physical security, digital security, Risk Management or Compliance, you WILL learn something valuable, and relevant here.
