"The question of data privacy is very complex. A few years ago, the European Union signed a major and comprehensive legislative regulation on data security issues. All European companies must adhere to certain standards. U.S. law is also complex in this area: The United States requires IT professionals to know the law. ” Michael Petrov, Founder, and CEO at Digital Edge
The speakers were:
- Michael Petrov - Founder and CEO of Digital Edge;
- James Greenberg - Member of the Board of Digital Edge;
- Slava Rykhva - Certified Professional in Information Security Systems at Digital Edge;
- Keith Barry - Vice President of Compliance at Digital Edge;
- Artem Bidenko - Chairman of the Board of the Institute of Information Security;
