SEMINAR IV: “DISASTER RECOVERY”

Whether it’s a natural or man-made disaster, government agencies and private companies have to be prepared for
the worst. With the severity of weather seemingly increasing over recent years, companies must have processes
in place to recover quickly and to assist displaced employees. Additionally, headlines every day highlight the
vulnerability of our IT/Networking infrastructures. High profile companies, organizations, governments and non-
profits are not as immune to hacking or viral malware as they might think. An expert panel will address these
concerns and how best to recover when the worst happens.

Speaker: Tom Cole, President, Republic National Distributing Company
