Cybersecurity, Cybercrimes, and Investigations
a CompTIA Luncheon on Wednesday, December 8, 2021 
This webpage accompanies a luncheon hosted by CompTIA on December 8, 2021 for executives and leaders in the information technology field. It was invitation only, held at one of the most celebrated event venues in New York State. I was honored to be asked to moderate the discussion and that it was built around my work and recent book on Cybercrime Investigations.
CompTIA is a leading non-profit organization devoted to the information technology sector, and they offer industry leading technology certifications. I am proud to hold five of them! (Not bad for a lawyer, see my About page to see which I hold).
