This document summarizes tips for making audits less painful. It begins by describing how audits are typically dreaded events that cause chaos and scrambling. However, the presenter notes that audits don't have to be this way. For auditors, the tips are to be professional, knowledgeable, prepared, fair, and remember where they came from. For those being audited, the tips are to be honest, knowledgeable, prepared, patient, and add value. The goal is for audits to become a two-way street where both parties challenge each other to improve security.
Auctioning RE projects: Lessons learned from auction design for renewable ele...Leonardo ENERGY
This session is part of the Clean Energy Regulators Initiative Webinar Programme.
Theme 7 - Promotion of RE Technologies
Module 6: Auctioning RE projects
An increasing number of countries world-wide are using auctions to procure renewable energy sources in the electricity sector. More than 60 countries had held renewable energy auctions as of early 2015. The webinar explains crucial design features and the important lessons learned from various jurisdictions around the world. The webinar will also highlight potential combinations of of auctions with other support mechanisms. For instance, feed-in tariffs can be applied for smaller-scale projects and RE auctions can trigger investment in larger-scale projects.

In this chapter we introduce the concepts of work, energy and power. We define kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, and the potential energy stored in a compressed or stretched spring. If all forces are conservative, the mechanical energy of an isolated system is constant. If non-conservative forces are present, we use the work-energy theorem to equate the work done by the non-conservative forces and the change in mechanical energy.

Nel momento di difficile congiuntura economica che stiamo attraversando diventa fondamentale per i liberi professionisti e le PMI utilizzare le possibilità offerte dall’evoluzione di internet.
Il web 2.0, con tutte le sue connotazioni (blog aziendali, social media, micro-blogging, etc) è diventato un potentissimo strumento di marketing e di relazione con clienti e fornitori, in qualche caso complementare al tradizionale e oneroso canale pubblicitario, e in molti altri casi ad esso alternativo.
Se a questo si aggiunge il fatto che non si possono trascurare le nuove modalità di comunicazione introdotte dal web 2.0, sempre più spesso implementare una strategia di marketing attraverso i Social Media può diventare una scelta obbligata.
L’obiettivo di questa presentazione è quello di fornire un panorama sul cambiamento apportato dai Social Media alle strategie marketing e descrivere le diverse opportunità che si presentano alle aziende in un contesto in continua evoluzione tecnologica e di rottura con i modelli organizzativi tradizionali.

Sustainable energy is energy that is consumed at insignificant rates compared to its supply and with manageable collateral effects, especially environmental effects. Another common definition of sustainable energy is an energy system that serves the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.[1]The organizing principle for sustainability is sustainable development, which includes the four interconnected domains: ecology, economics, politics and culture.[2] Sustainability science is the study of sustainable development and environmental science.

FRSecure has a goal of changing a broken industry. There are many ways to accomplish this endeavor such as setting high assessment standards, using proprietary reporting methods that are easy to understand to hiring expert talent just to name a few. However, one unique approach FRSecure uses to bring about change is our CISSP Mentor Program. By design the program is provided at no cost to anyone with an interest in the information security industry.

Utilizing OSINT in Threat Analytics and Incident ResponseChristopher Beiring
Validating potential incidents or indicators of compromise (IOCs) in today’s fast paced environment can be somewhat overwhelming and difficult. Sometimes a team does not believe they have all of the tools and resources to quickly and accurately identify, verify, and rectify a potential indicator in their environment in time. Sometimes these investigations are performed yet may leave out valuable key pieces of data that would benefit the prevention or hardening against future similar attacks. Everyone wants the expensive and shiny tool that vendors offer, but sometimes budgets do not always allow teams access to the latest and greatest, and honestly, not all tools are equal. Relying on one piece of data for IOC validation is a bad idea, even if that resource is the best in the industry. The approach is to use not only the tools you have, but to augment them with existing open source tools that will enrich your investigation, provide accuracy, and supplement your ability to quickly and accurately respond to valid threats in order to increase your security team’s effectiveness. The purpose of this presentation will be to walk users through the value of Open Source Intel and how to use the tools available effectively to help research and identify potential issues during an incident response engagement.

While advancements in technology have greatly improved the speed, efficiency and capability of investment advisers’ and broker-dealers’ systems and workflows, these developments have also significantly increased operational and reputational risk. An isolated system intrusion can have dramatic consequences for a SEC or FINRA registrant including financial loss, ongoing liability to clients and investors and potential regulatory enforcement action. In today’s environment, if a “hacked” SEC or FINRA registrant has any hope of avoiding a regulatory enforcement action, it is imperative they can demonstrate that they have adequate policies and procedures to identify and test potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities and weaknesses. Such policies must also address the experience, security vetting process and the location of any external party performing such tests.

3. Everyone Hates the Auditor…
• The day of the Audit is announced
• The chaos begins…
… scrambling to gather documents
… double checking “compliance”
… seasoned vets ensure their
retirement funds are maxed
... compliance managers pour over
cryptic tomes of regulations “The auditors are coming, the
auditors are coming!”
4. Everyone Hates the Auditor…
• The Day of the Audit
• The battle begins…
… new employees are
prepared to be thrown under
the bus
… the auditor digs until they
find damning evidence
… interviewees argue, fight,
and plead their cases
