Sensei Officers Featured in Attorney at Work

October 18, 2018

Sensei’s Sharon Nelson and John Simek were recently featured in Attorney at Work’s Friday Tech Tips “Teaming Up on Cybersecurity: 2018 Futures Conference Program Preview” by Gwynne Monahan.
Excerpt: Futures Conference co-chair Sharon Nelson points to DLA Piper and its response to the NotPetya malware attack in June 2017 as one good example. NotPetya was a piece of malware disguised to look and act like Peyta ransomware, but designed to spread quickly and destroy data rather than hold it for ransom. Other large corporations infected by NotPetya included international ad agency WPP, pharmacy company Merck and shipping giant Maersk.

Your goal, says John Simek of Sensei Enterprises, who is Nelson’s partner, is to create a “culture of cybersecurity.” And he has a simple solution: Train your employees.
