Certificant Spotlight

Sanjeev Mishra, CPP

A captain with the Indian Army in the mid-1990s, Mishra surveyed the social, cultural, and political landscape, closely observing conflict trends. With sovereigns focusing on inward security, and corporations getting in on the act, he decided to devote his skills to safeguarding business interests just the way he’d protected borders.

“To me, CPP stands for Credibility, Proficiency, and Professionalism. This certification equipped me with the requisite credentials, competences, and confidence to voice a well-rounded professional opinion to senior leadership and be heard.”

Leveraging ESRM to Manage Physical, Cyber, and Converged Security Programs | 23 September 2018

This one-day program introduces you to the basics of ESRM and how the overall life-cycle functions to engage security as a true business partner to their enterprise executives. Interact as part of a team with several ESRM leaders and discuss the ESRM life cycle, how security managers and executives can leverage ESRM, and the relationship between ESRM and convergence.

Two panel discussions cover:

various aspects of ESRM and convergence in several leading security programs
exploring how each concept impacts the security manager’s role
how the concepts differ from, and complement, each other.

A live simulation of the ESRM life cycle and a hands-on team exercise help you apply the knowledge learned.

Artful Manipulation

Chief financial officer Malcolm Fisher never thought he would be victimized by cybercrime—until a social engineer successfully impersonated him and bilked his company out of more than $125,000.

It was relatively easy for the criminal to identify Fisher as a high-value target given his key position within the company—his bio was readily available on the company website. And Fisher's social media profiles on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn revealed several bits of information that marked him as a dream target for a diligent social engineer.
