The Risk You Can’t See on a Resume: How Cyber Investigations Protect Your Greatest Asset – People
Examine the hidden exposure that traditional hiring and screening processes often miss—and how those gaps can lead directly to financial, legal, and reputational risk. In this session, media finance professionals will explore the disconnect between standard background checks and deeper investigative screening, using real-world case studies and cost data to understand the true impact on the balance sheet. The discussion will focus on how incomplete screening can result in unexpected liabilities, from legal claims to PR crises, and provide practical insight into evaluating whether current hiring practices are truly protecting the organization. Attendees will leave with a clearer framework for assessing risk and strengthening hiring strategies to better safeguard both people and performance.
The session is led by Michelle Pyan, President of CIChecked, who founded the firm in 2004 and brings more than 30 years of experience at the intersection of technology and investigative screening. A licensed New York State Private Investigator, Michelle has built CIChecked into a nationally recognized firm completing thousands of background investigations annually, with deep expertise in FCRA compliance, cyber investigations, and the evolving regulatory landscape. She is joined by Alex Skaine, Marketing Communications Coordinator at CIChecked, who specializes in translating complex screening and investigative practices into practical, actionable insights for business leaders. Together, they offer a blend of deep investigative expertise and clear, operational guidance on strengthening hiring risk management.
