Author Podcast: Fundamentals of Information Risk Management Auditing, with Christopher Wright

This week, in our last podcast of the year, we revisit some of the biggest information security stories from the past 12 months

14 December Weekly Podcast: 2018 end-of-year roundup

What is a risk and how do you manage them in projects? 
What are positive versus negative risks and how do you stay on top of them? What is the difference between a problem and a risk and how do we apply this to the coronavirus outbreak? 

Sheries Ruddock, Operations Associate at the IDB, discusses with Golda Lee Bruce, Development Storyteller and Communications Coordinator at the IDB, how critical risk management is to projects and how this applies to development work and today’s world.
 
Risk Management in projects is not a methodology but a change of mindset, focusing proactively on managing risk that includes stakeholders, more than problem-solving in a reactive and individual way.

To gain further knowledge and skills in risk management, you can enroll now in our massive open online course (MOOC) Risk Management in Development Projects. The course is designed for project management practitioners and introduces them to basic knowledge and practice of risk management in development projects. What’s more, is that it's self-paced, offered in three languages (English, Portuguese and Spanish) and provides 30 PDUs for those with project management professional certification. We encourage PMP and CAPM certified persons to participate!

Ransomware remains a pervasive threat to businesses throughout many industries. As this type of cyberattack continues to increase and become more sophisticated, companies grapple to seek new and effective ways to protect their security systems. Putting preventive measures in place is good; however, organizations should go beyond just prevention.

With the growing inevitability of ransomware attacks and other cybersecurity threats, companies are called to put more focus and emphasis on crisis preparation. Robust data back-up and recovery strategy should be developed and synchronized with the company’s overall business continuity plan to ensure that operations will be able to resume in the quickest possible time in cases of attacks.

In this LIVE Webcast, seasoned data security experts Alex Fagioli (Tectrade) and Melissa Krasnow (VLP Law Group) will provide you with an in-depth discussion of the most pressing cybersecurity issues concerning ransomware. Discover why companies need to rethink their current approaches and give priority to building efficient recovery systems. Speakers will highlight the best preparation and recovery strategies that cybersecurity leaders can apply within their organization.
