Workshop Leader: Richard Cross, Senscia. Frmr Deputy Chief Risk Officer, SWIFT & Frmr CISO, Toyota Europe

Workshop 2: Cyber Crime: A Business Risk Approach

Understanding the nature and scope of cyber-security risks facing modern business: together we will analyse the chain of activities which can cause a cyber-breach and the corresponding actions we can take to reduce the likelihood. Also, we will use the same analysis technique to grapple with the practical strategies, processes and tools we might consider, to meaningfully reduce the impact of such an incident. You will gain a practical understanding of the role you can play in identifying key vulnerabilities in business processes and organisational culture, and specifying the most appropriate control frameworks to reduce exposure.

Richard is a person who makes sense of change. His education and career have spanned many diverse disciplines and industries, enabling him to look back and think forward. His earliest working days were spent in the Financial Management industry, focusing on training and communication activities, responsible for the use of new technology for that company, and gadgets for his own curious mind: business and pleasure. Almost by accident he came to work in a government intelligence unit in London which proved to be fertile ground for bringing together use of secure information and engaging with varied human behaviour. He provided information security consultancy to one of the world’s biggest oil companies then moved on to become CISO at Toyota Europe, which subsequently became the world’s largest auto-manufacturer. Never content to see Information Security as a stand-alone risk, he persuaded the car guys to remove him from the IT hierarchy and start using Enterprise Risk Management techniques from the Corporate Offices. Three years were then spent at SWIFT, the systemically important High Value Payments system for the Banking & Securities industries, as Deputy Chief Risk Officer. Richard is now developing his own consulting company, advising organisations how to better understand the changes they are facing, combining rational and intuitive approaches for managing risk, without falling into the trap of blind risk aversion.

Dr. Lesley Perman-Kerr, Managing Director, Vivant Artemis Hear fascinating insights into how the psychological impact of critical incidents can be mitigated with practical advice and intervention. As professionals dealing with day to day risk management, there is much to be learned about the way we respond to critical incidents and how this will almost always affect behaviour and performance. Lesley takes the example of a kidnap to demonstrate how we can reduce psychological injury through preparation, real-time intervention and post-incident recovery. She will draw useful parallels with the corporate world, the way we respond psychologically to risk, whether that is in managing a team to combat a cyber-attack, protecting whistle- blowers or conveying key messages to the Board and media.

Dr Lesley Perman-Kerr is a Consultant Chartered Psychologist. In her private practice she specialises in treating trauma-related conditions. Elsewhere working with organisations she utilises her understanding of human psychology, neuroscience and trauma to resolve the psychological impact of critical incidents and to advise on how to prepare psychologically for exposure to hostile environments and to survive kidnap and its aftermath. She has assisted Business Organisations, the UN, NGOs, survivors and their families on: Kidnap and piracy incidents in the UK and overseas. Incident locations have included Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Georgia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Nigeria and Somalia.

Part 1 – Integrity Due Diligence on a potential new acquisition in Africa• What due diligence should be undertaken regarding the potential acquisition?• This is a potentially a very lucrative transaction for the company. What would your decision be as to whether to continue with the acquisition under these circumstances, and if you decide to proceed – what measures could be put in place to minimise ABC plc’s risk.• The results of the due diligence are shared with the audience, including; Concerns as to how the licence was obtained; potential risk of licence revocation; ABC controls not what would be expected; Poor procurement practices; however no direct evidence found that a bribe or any fraud has occurred.

Part 2 - Allegation of procurement fraud• Having heard the whistle-blower what would your response be? Should an investigation take place?• Some further information is received that lends support to the whistle blowers allegations – a decision to investigate has been confirmed.• Who would you involve in developing the plan? What would you do re legal privilege? What are the likely information sources? What first steps would you undertake? What are the practical difficulties of undertaking an investigation in these circumstances? Are there any external reporting requirements at this stage? Note: ABC has a central team investigation team within Internal Audit, all based in London, as is the General Counsel.• Should the CFO and Head of procurement be suspended? What other investigation steps can be taken?• What preparation needs to be made in advance of the meeting and how should the interviews be conducted?• Given this further information what further steps could you consider?

Part 3 – Similar fact pattern but CFO and Head of Procurement are based in Paris and the supplier is based in Germany

• What are going to be the key differences of undertaking an investigation in these circumstances as opposed to the previous scenario? What would you do differently?• The investigation highlights evidence of the type that might not be expected in the African context, e.g. relationship mapping using information gathered from social network sites.
