A New Access Softek Webinar on Cybersquatting for Banks and Credit Unions A Legal Perspective on How to Combat Cybersquatting - November 25, 2008 BERKELEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Access Softek announces a webinar specifically for banks and credit unions on one of the most significant risks to online services: Cybersquatting. With over 50 million users, online banking has been a revolution in the financial industry. The cost savings, rapid deployment of new products and the opportunity for unrivaled revenue growth makes the online channel of vital importance to the future of every financial institution. To protect the security, reputation and strategic future of online services, it’s essential every bank and credit union take an aggressive position against cybersquatting. Among the many problems of unchecked cybersquatting are: more effective phishing attacks, reduced web site traffic, reduced revenue opportunity and end user confusion. “Cybersquatting: A legal perspective” presents the information needed to understand what can be done and how best to tackle the problem. Harvard-trained attorney and intellectual property specialist Lawrence Siskind is the guest speaker. “Effective security requires integrating physical, technical, process and legal considerations into a comprehensive approach. This is a rare opportunity for financial institutions to hear the legal issues from an expert,” said Chris Doner, Access Softek CEO. Among the questions addressed are: How to prevent it from happening? What to do if it does happen? What if the cybersquatter is offshore? How long does the arbitration process take? What will it cost? When is litigation necessary? “It’s an information packed one hour. It saves a lot of research time,” observed Doner.
