The event, held in Bogota, Colombia, drew leaders in financial cybersecurity from around the world and fostered the exchange of experiences in the prevention and investigation of organized crime, illicit financial flows, cybercrime, and its impact on environmental capital.
A focal point of the summit was Choo’s speaking session on “Challenges and Opportunities to Counter Cybercrime.” Choo’s insights and dedication have significantly contributed to our understanding of addressing cyber threats on a global scale and his active participation underscored Endicott’s commitment to advancing cybersecurity education.
