Social media use and the number of networks is growing rapidly and creating new opportunities for businesses. These opportunities also come with risk management challenges for financial institutions. The regulatory landscape is changing, how do institutions keep pace? Are there legislative changes coming down the pike? Privacy concerns? Mounting consumer issues – where does the CFPB fit in? What about the new workforce and generational changes and impacts? Innovation? Payments? The list can seem endless.

The BITS Social Media Forum will explore the risk challenges by identifying the major issues and mitigation strategies, determining which issues can be successfully addressed at an industry level, and how to engage multiple stakeholders.

Key takeaways will include leading thoughts on:
- Current risk environment
- Compliance and regulation
- Strategic and reputation issues
- What does the future look like?

Who Should Attend
- Chief Information Officers
- Chief Risk Officers
- Chief Privacy Officers
- Communications and Social Media Executives

BITS Email Authentication Forum: Enhancing Our Trust of Email

On February 24, 2013, BITS convened a forum focused on enhancing our trust of email through collaborative action. Key stakeholders discussed strategies for deploying email authentication policies and standards, and worked to broaden industry adoption of technologies that will better protect financial services consumers. The forum was a component of BITS' Email Security initiative, which includes a comprehensive document covering business and process considerations to leverage several email protocols and tools, serving as a guide for financial institutions to detect and reduce the number of spoofed email messages, including updated email sender authentication protocols since the paper's original publication in 2009.
