Could Russia Be Hacking Your Data? What CMOs Need to Know About Cyber-Security

Cedar Knolls, NJ, October 24, 2016 (Newswire.com) - John Lucich, founder and CEO of the Network Security Group, Inc., will present: Could Russia be hacking your data?  What CMOs Need to Know About Cyber-security at Marketsmith’s upcoming forum “Technology is the New Creativity.”

With the abundance of data available, and with recent episodes of cyber criminals hacking the emails of political organizations, individuals and companies, data security has become top of mind with all large organizations. 

"Think about it, companies like Apple and Google would not want new product info leaked before they are introduced, and AMC wouldn't want The Walking Dead footage to be leaked before it is unveiled at Comic-Con."

Monica C. Smith, Marketsmith CEO & Founder

Lucich’s expertise in investigating hacking and how to keep data – and trade secrets – secure is valuable information for marketers, particularly those in competitive categories. 

“Think about it, companies like Apple and Google would not want new product info leaked before they are introduced, and AMC wouldn’t want The Walking Dead footage to be leaked before it is unveiled at Comic-Con,” says Marketsmith CEO & Founder Monica C. Smith.

Lucich’s company, the Network Security Group, Inc., is a network management, assessment and consulting.  Lucich is retired from the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office, Organized Crime & Corruption Bureau, where he was involved in the investigation of high tech crimes since 1988. 

In 1994 he assisted the United States Navy working as an undercover criminal hacker and helped identify individuals involved in military computer intrusions. 

Since then Lucich has assisted his clients in tracking hackers, stalkers and helping them secure their networks to prevent further intrusions.
