Risk Management Conference on Cybersecurity and International Sports Governing Bodies organised by the AISTS, MARSH, KESSLER and XL CATLIN.

As major sporting events continue to become more and more digital on and off the field, cybersecurity becomes even more important.  No matter what code you follow, teams and events face remarkable cyber-threats from criminals.  Hackers see profit in information in relation to business strategies, insights into a team’s and events sponsorship and partner deals, and also a substantial amount of personal credit card data from online sales.  Some of the risk areas include:

• stadium system hacks
• scoring system hacks
• entry manipulation
• athlete care hacks
• transportation hacks

This seminar will shed light on the topic of cybersecurity for sporting bodies and provide information on how to mitigate risks for all stakeholders involved.
