Phishing Prevention: A Symposium on Protecting Consumers and Businesses

Register

Event Description

The 2024 Phishing Symposium’s goal is to develop concrete solutions to the phishing problem. The Europe Union has initiated the Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive with specific Domain Name System improvements. Moreover, several U.S states have anti-phishing statutes, such as California’s Anti-Phishing Act of 2005.

This symposium will bring together anti-phishing experts, consumer groups, the financial industry, public safety agencies, and legislative staffers to discuss the current state of play and mitigation strategies, including how to starve cybercriminals of the technical resources needed to conduct attacks, industry-led initiatives, and potential policy and legislative approaches.

American University Khan Institute has published a blog/summary of the Phishing Symposium – https://american.edu/centers/khan_institute/khan-institute-phishing-symposium.cfm
