SPEAKER: Speaker Simone DeSimone from Citigate Global Intelligence & Security, formerly FBI agent and neighbor of Lombardos.  Said she checked out neighbors and they were ok.  Simone talked about electronic discovery in legal proceedings.  Now everything on computers instead of paper trail.  Told great stories re how the bad guys were caught because of electronic trails that can be followed.  Just deleting something from  your computer doesn't necessarily make it go away.  Your company e-mail belongs to the company -- don't rely on privacy.  Even if never saved documents sometimes can be pieced together. Simone was an entertaining and enlightening speaker.
