Masters Conference sees the world of technology and the legal community on a crash course. Data is the defining factor of both.

If you follow the latest trends from CES or within government, you will quickly realize that data has many different forms, different formats, different locations and different users. All of this has one thing in common. It can dramatically define your case.

From worldwide, grave privacy concerns to an internal breach, you need to be ready for the new world of legal and how technology will be pulling the carriage.  Legal technology today is still seriously behind what we see is commonplace within many of your current clients.

Our events are focused opening the borders between the legal community, IT community, information governance, xybersecurity and more. Please join us today for a spirited discussion on popular legal topics. Masters has always been a leader in change. Developing and promoting many of the new groups, trends, and rules that impact you today. Join us and watch what over 10 years of educating in the legal community can teach you.

According to the Pew Research Center, roughly eight-in-ten online Americans (79%) now use Facebook.  The present Facebook community is over five times as large as the United States population. With such explosion of content about individuals publicly available on a global basis, what is the risk for an organization?  Our panel of industry luminaries will discuss the tie-in of social media, social engineering, spear phishing and financial loss in a lively discussion of a cybersecurity breach incident as well as what are ways organizations can better protect themselves.
