PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The holidays are a time for celebration—but they are also a prime opportunity for fraudsters to exploit increased activity, distracted employees, and year-end financial transactions.
From sophisticated deepfake scams and executive impersonation to fraudulent payments, phishing attempts, and social engineering attacks, today’s threats are becoming harder to recognize and more costly to organizations.
Join fellow CFOs and business leaders for a festive evening of cocktails and conversation featuring a timely discussion on the evolving fraud landscape. Experts will share real-world examples of how criminals are using new tactics, what warning signs leaders should watch for, and the practical steps organizations can take to protect their people, finances, and reputation.
Celebrate the holiday season while gaining valuable insights to help safeguard your organization heading into the new year.
