Join in on the Most Exclusive Conversation in Fraud Prevention
RSAC™ eFraud Global Forum (eFG) Canada is an exclusive one-day, closed-door, invitation-only forum created to help facilitate information sharing primarily within the Canadian anti-fraud ecosystem, but also includes global organizations.After successfully operating in the USA under strict Chatham House Rule for over 15 years, eFG has developed the formula for delivering highly rated forums year after year.
RSAC eFG Canada brings together close to 100 fraud prevention leaders to openly discuss top fraud and scams concerns – and share strategies, best practices, and forward-thinking ideas on how to detect, prevent and mitigate the threats. This interactive forum includes presentations, panel discussions, case studies, and facilitated small group discussions, with no media.
"The breadth of knowledge and experience was astounding as well as the openness of all the participants!"
"Extremely valuable to step away from day to day and connect with industry partners and think about higher level challenges."
