Brian Honan (BH Consulting)
In a world that is becoming more and more dependent on computers, networks, and software, our focus is on ensuring the security and availability of those systems. Yet time and time again we witness major security events resulting in loss of data, services, or financial loss. Having worked with clients across many industries Brian will look at how these failures in our security should be viewed in a positive light and how, rather than avoid failures, we should look to embrace them.
