Mark Lanterman will be the program speaker at the Rotary Club of Edina's meeting Jan. 29. Lanterman, a computer forensics expert, will speak about "Easiest Catch: Don't Be Another Fish in the 'Net." 
 
Lanterman describes the program: You've read the headlines. Unfortunately, the question now is not if your information is going to be accessed or stolen, but when. Perhaps surprisingly, small businesses are not immune to these attacks. In fact, entrepreneurs may be at increased risk for personal security breaches. In an effort to inform the attendees of current developments in the digital underground as well as provide realistic advice for cyber protection, Lanterman will be discussing recent high profile cyber-crime events, including Website breaches impacting retailers, banks and State agencies. He will discuss particularly dangerous types of threats that might effect individuals such as phishing, cyber stalking, and WiFi attacks. 
 
Mark Lanterman is the chief technology officer of Computer Forensic Services. Before entering the private sector, Lanterman spent 11 years as a sworn police investigator and as a member of the U. S. Secret Service Electronic Crimes Taskforce. He provides regular commentary on cyber security issues for national print and broadcast media, including NBC, ABC, Bloomberg, and The Wall Street Journal. Lanterman is currently retained by the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office as its computer forensic expert. 
 
The Rotary Club of Edina meets at 12:15 p.m. Thursdays at Edina Country Club. Everyone is welcome, cost for lunch and the program is $18.
