  1. Many organizations and individuals are susceptible to falling for scams, particularly during the holidays. Guide us through some gotchas, tips, and awareness that people should be taking note of.
  2. Todd, as the leader over this function, would you mind just framing up the focus areas, and then we'll talk about how you deal with security incidents?
  3. What is a security incident?
  4. Steve, I know we're talking about prevention, response, and restoration regarding security incidents. What about the aspect of prevention, in particular? How do you view this?
  5. In terms of governance, what are some things we should be paying attention to?
  6. Testing is an important part of protecting digital data. Steve, you are actively involved in testing information security practices, can you tell us more about this?
  7. Once you have prevention measures in place, inevitably something happens, and we need to get into response and restoration. Share with us what that means and what that looks like.
  8. If we do report an incident, from a governance standpoint, what does that response look like?
  9. Very briefly, if I'm a care provider and I want to get a security program kicked off, what are two elements that you would prioritize and say pay attention to this?
