"In today's world, where data breaches are becoming increasingly commonplace, it's important to examine why our current state of security is simply not enough," said O'Hare.

By examining the current state of data security, Mark will also share how layering solutions for the future can help prepare and protect today's society against a new generation of cyberattacks and hacking methods.
