About this Webinar

After more than two decades investigating cybercrime for the FBI, Scott Augenbaum uncovered a hard truth: most breaches didn’t have to happen.

You’ll Learn:

  • What investigators consistently find inside compromised environments
  • Why organizations underestimate their exposure
  • Where asset visibility, access control, and patching most often break down
  • How attackers exploit small operational shortcuts
  • What disciplined prevention looks like in practice

This interactive session includes a live Q&A with Scott and Gene.
