When employees leave a company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, it is quite common for them to take sensitive and confidential data with them. To reduce the risk of employees taking information with them when they leave, employers should establish detailed and thorough policies and procedures focused on:
- Ensuring visibility into employee practices
- Limiting employee access to data
- Requiring encryption of sensitive data
- Managing devices properly
- Other proactive steps
In this practical webinar, you will learn about real-world problems that have occurred when employees have left their company including:
- Taking sensitive corporate assets with them
- Deleting sensitive corporate assets
- Making these assets unavailable to the organization
Among other things, you will receive detail guidelines on how to mitigate these risks.
Upon course completion, you will be able to:
- Identify the potential risk that an organization faces when employees leave
- Anticipate the regulatory consequences of data breaches that can have enormous repercussions on an organization’s operations
- Identify those processes that are lacking that will enable employees to exfiltrate data upon their departure
- Determine which technologies can be implemented to help identify potential problems and mitigate the risks associated with employee departures

What is a webinar?
A webinar is simply a seminar that you attend online. You either watch a live video feed of the speaker or listen to the speaker through your computer, tablet or phone’s audio. You see the speaker’s slides, videos, and other presentation materials on your screen.
Can I ask questions during the webinar?
Yes. During the live webinar, you may submit questions and comments and the speaker will respond verbally. For a recorded webinar, your questions will be emailed to the speaker. You will typically receive a response from the speaker within two business days.
Can I attend using a tablet or smartphone?
Yes. You may attend a webinar using a computer, tablet or smartphone.
If I can’t attend a webinar live, can I view the recording later?
Yes. Shortly after each live program ends, we send all webinar registrants a link to the webinar recording. You can view the recording as many times as you like after the live webinar for up to 12 months.
What is an on-demand webinar?
An on-demand webinar is a previously recorded webinar that you may view at any time after your purchase for up to 12 months.
