When You Hear Hoofbeats, I May Be A Zebra - Fraud Case Study

When You Hear Hoofbeats, I May Be A Zebra - Fraud Case Study

  • Jacksonville, FL 32255 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Presenter: Daniel G. Porter, CFE

Speaker Bio: Daniel Porter has been a Certified Fraud Examiner for over 20 years and has conducted and managed civil and criminal investigations for over 25 years as a licensed private investigator, a loss prevention manager, and as an investigator with the State of Tennessee.  He currently provides training and consulting services in the areas of ethics and fraud prevention-detection-investigation. He is a guest lecturer at Middle Tennessee State University and the Vanderbilt University School of Law.

Webinar Title: When You Hear Hoofbeats, I May Be A Zebra - A Case Study of Common Symptoms of Fraud

Description: This session uses case studies to explore some of the more common symptoms of fraud that are often misdiagnosed.

Background: Young doctors sometimes arrive at an exotic medical diagnosis (You’ve got Kuru!), when a more commonplace explanation is likely (You’ve got a cold).  These diagnoses are known as Zebras and doctors are taught, “When you hear hoofbeats, think of horses not zebras”.  Sometimes, the patient really has a rare disease and suffers from misdiagnosis and subsequent improper treatment. Similarly, managers, auditors, and investigators often see indicators of fraud but dismiss them because they’ve been taught or assume, based on experience, that it is just a mistake that looks like fraud.

Title: Cyber Bank Heist: A Case Study with FBI Special Agent

Topic Description: Over the past two years, cyber actors have been operating a sophisticated scheme to defeat multi-factor authentication (MFA) in business banking to steal millions from unsuspecting victim organizations. The scheme leverages numerous cyber-based attack methodologies, including search engine manipulation, website spoofing, caller ID spoofing, social engineering, e-mail spam, and DDoS attacks (among others). The scheme also involves use of a sophisticated operation to recruit, vet, and operate thousands of U.S.-based money mules. During this presentation, FBI Special Agent Jon Windness will provide a detailed account of how the scheme works and lead a discussion of what can be done to better protect against this attack methodology.

Presenter: Special Agent Jon Windness, FBI Jacksonville Office

Speaker Bio: Special Agent Jon Windness has served 19 years with the FBI and currently works out of the Jacksonville Field Office.  SA Windness specializes in investigating cyber intrusions which impact the financial sector and currently serves as lead investigator on multiple high-profile investigations involving international cyber actors. In conducting these investigations, SA Windness routinely works with numerous financial institutions, technology firms, and government entities to counter the foreign-based cyber threats.  Prior to joining the FBI, SA Windness was employed as a computer system consultant, assisting Fortune 500 companies with the design and implementation of enterprise-wide information systems.
