Robert Siciliano
Biography

ROBERT SICILIANO, CSP, the #1 Best Selling Amazon.com author and CEO of Safr.Me, may get your attention with his fun engaging tone and approachable personality but he is serious about teaching you and your audience fraud prevention and personal security. Robert is a security expert and private investigator fiercely committed to informing, educating and empowering people so they can protect themselves and their loved ones from violence and crime in their everyday lives, both in their physical and virtual interactions. Robert, a Certified Speaking Professional with a "tell it like it is" style, is a favorite source for dozens of major media outlets, leading corporations and organizations looking for the straight talk they need to stay safe in a world in which physical and virtual crime is commonplace. Robert is accessible, professional, and ready to weigh in and comment with down-to-earth insights at a moment's notice on breaking news that affects us all.

When the internet was still coming of age, Robert's startup security company's financial holdings were under attack by cybercriminals, and he lost thousands of dollars due to credit card fraud. In becoming one of the earliest victims of internet crime, Robert gained the knowledge and experience to teach others how they can position and protect not only their companies but also themselves from falling prey to internet thieves. His years of experience, combined with extensive study, have allowed him to become one of the nation's most well-respected and trusted experts on cybercrime. He has worked with such companies as ExxonMobil, Intel, McAfee, MasterCard, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, KPMG, MIT, Transamerica and UPS, and almost every major media outlet has turned to him for information on identity theft, internet safety, crime prevention and security.

Robert works with both private and public businesses as the president and CEO of IDTheftSecurity.com, and he teaches clients how to keep their money, privacy and data secure against acts of fraud, identity theft, corporate espionage, and purposeful or accidental exposure of private information--all acts that cost companies billions nationwide.

Robert lives in Boston with his wife and daughters. When not spending time with his family or educating audiences about safety, he enjoys long-distance runs (he is a seven-time Boston Marathoner) an avid mariner (he's a Flotilla Staff Officer with the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary) and rides a purple 1987 Harley-Davidson Low Rider--with a helmet to preserve his own safety, of course.

Robert Siciliano Brings Identity Theft, Personal Security, Fraud Prevention and Security to Life

Research shows that identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the country, affecting anywhere from 10 to 13 million Americans each year, and resulting in the loss of as much as a trillion dollars in individual and business assets to fraud. Robert Siciliano describes identity theft as a perfect crime in that it is "the easiest crime to commit and the hardest crime to get caught for." While most people simply assume identity theft affects individuals and not businesses, that assumption couldn't be further from the truth. If you are not actively attempting to defend your business against the breach of corporate data and identity theft, you're a victim waiting to be ripped off--and you need his expertise, now.

Robert is known throughout the country as an expert in identity theft and data breaches in the corporate world. Many members of his audience only realize the value of data protection when they themselves are ripped off or their identity compromised, but he is focused on helping companies take the steps necessary to protect their data from theft without the pain of personal experience. As a bonus, employees can easily apply much of the knowledge that he provides to their personal lives.

Because of the amount of media Robert does and being an expert, he's had the opportunity to hobnob with some of the biggest names in the world, these are some of the people Robert knows or has met and the circles he runs in including Carlos Arredondo, he was the cowboy that saved Jeff Bauman, whose legs were destroyed in the Boston Marathon bombing, which Robert ran in (and was right there at the second bomb), Jake Gyllenhaal played Jeff in the movie "Stronger".

And that's Robert with Montel Williams, Howard Stern, Fox News Neil Cavuto, Rock Star Billy Idol, Rudy Giuliani, Mario Lopez, John Stossel, Evander Holyfield, Steve Forbes, Mike Dukakis, Black Panther Star Chadwick Boseman, Alan Dershowitz, Maria Menounos and Tyra Banks.

Security Matters
Why Digital Security Drives Customer Loyalty

Every week, Robert Siciliano inevitably hears from a distressed financial advisor who has to rescue a client whose accounts have been compromised. The fact is, your moneyed clients are big targets—and they aren’t necessarily cyber savvy.

Bankers, financial advisors, wealth and asset managers, and investment and financial planners are all in the business of making their clients more money and profiting from their good money advice. But what happens when a client’s account is compromised by an outside source? Your clients turn to you and wonder why you never provided them with the advice or tools to protect themselves and their assets. Now, you can reduce victimization by partnering with your clients in another way: preventing fraud.

As a financial professional, you are perfectly positioned to inform and educate your clients on the easiest and most effective ways to keep their data secure and their identities protected. Equip your clients with the simple tools and effective information to make them secure, and you will be their trusted advisor for life.

In this presentation, Robert will help you:

Learn where the weak spots are in your clients’ knowledge of online fraud
Empower your customers to be their own security experts
Instill loyalty in your clients by providing them with 360-awareness of not only their financial situation but also their security situation

Social Media Security
Marketing, Extending and Defending Your Online Reputation

Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn are popular social networking sites in both the personal and professional lives of business leaders and their employees. However, the risks we face from sharing too much information are substantial—from personal security to damaged reputations to significant business liabilities that put all operations in jeopardy. It doesn’t matter whether you or your employees access these websites and apps on a company computer or a mobile device—the consequences of visiting them are very real when it comes to the privacy and security of a business.

How are you being judged online? What are people saying about you? Do you do business with someone based on how good or bad the reviews are? Do Amazon reviews sway you—and, on the other hand, has Yelp ruined you?

There has never been a better time to build a brand name—and there has never been a worse time to have yours torn down because of bad reviews. Social media encompasses all forms of digital communication and is a fantastic tool for syndicating your brand and getting it in front of your target market, but it’s also the voice of the people—and if you tick off the public, hell hath no fury like a Twitterer scorned.

In this presentation, Robert Siciliano will teach you how to:

Incorporate the fundamentals of Online Reputation Management
The implications of using social media, for individuals and businesses
How to mitigate the dangers of using these websites
How to cover your footprints when using social media
Devise a strategy to build a solid presence
Tactically respond to negative comments
Proactively ward off trolls
Implement processes and procedures for your employees to follow
Learn the tools you need to get your name out there
Understand what risks exist online
Secure your sites and protect your brand

Putting Your Digital Data, Trade Secrets and Proprietary Information on Lockdown
Knowledge is Power You Don’t Want to Lose

In a high-tech, information-based economy, everything we do as a business is recorded and tracked or stolen by someone—whether by your competition, criminal hackers, or a domestic or foreign authority. Once extricated from your hands, the bad guys exploit your valuable information to their advantage or use it against you. It’s not fair, it’s ugly, it’s often illegal and it sucks—specifically, it sucks all the time, energy and effort away from your profits and can ruin your business and your reputation. A fundamental lack of control over your company’s data—via public Wi-Fi, thumb drives, smartphones, tablets, cloud data and social media websites—have changed the way businesses store, manage and share information—and if you aren’t keeping up, you are quickly going to lose control and put your data and corporate information at risk. Remember: You are either in control of your business’s cyber data or someone else is.

In this presentation, Robert Siciliano will show you and your staff how to:

Protect shared information, stored information, and any intellectual property—online or in the cloud
Be smart about computing on the go with your laptop, tablet and smartphone
