Free Oct. 11 Webinar on Preventing Data Breaches in Automotive Supply Chains
Presented by AIAG, SEEBURGER and Automotive News
ATLANTA, Oct. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- New strategies to help automotive OEMs and suppliers prevent the loss of intellectual property and other confidential business information during internal and external data transfers will be the topic of a free one-hour webinar at 1 pm ET on Tuesday, October 11. The webinar, "Avoiding Costly Data Breach Disasters in Automotive Supply Chains," will feature representatives of the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG), SEEBURGER and Automotive News.
The session will address the security risks of utilizing email or FTP to exchange sensitive data such as CAD drawings, product/assembly images and engineering data, particularly when the files exceed email size limitations or involve unstructured information exchanged between business users. Those risks include data loss, regulatory penalties and brand reputation damage.
Presenters will explain how an alternative solution – secure Managed File Transfer (MFT) – reduces those risks by automating compliance with internal content management policies and external regulations that govern data exchange and retention. MFT solutions also improve management control through better information visibility, including maintaining a complete audit trail of file transfer activity, for companies of any size.
Other topics covered will include:
- Global automotive communication trends from OFTP2 to secure MFT
- Pending information security initiatives by the industry standards organizations
- When secure MFT should be part of B2B strategies and why
- The three common file transfer types and how to efficiently protect all of them
- Automated approaches for empowering business users
- Successful MFT deployments at several companies
- The five most important questions to ask an MFT solutions vendor
Webinar presenters will be Akram Yunas, Manager, AIAG, and Brian Jolley, Information Technology Specialist for SEEBURGER. The session will be moderated by Peter Brown, publisher of Automotive News.
