The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) will honor Brian Krebs, journalist behind KrebsOnSercurity, for his achievements in investigative reporting.
Mr. Krebs will receive ACFE's Guardian Award at the 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference, held this year in Baltimore, Maryland, where Krebs will also deliver the keynote address. The award annually honors the journalist “whose dedication, perseverance, and commitment to the truth has contributed significantly to the fight against fraud.”
As a reporter for The Washington Post from 1995 to 2009, Mr. Krebs has previously authored hundreds of articles for the paper, as well as posts for the Security Fix blog. He achieved notoriety investigating cybercriminals' illicit activities, having uncovered massive data breaches and theft of consumers' personal and financial information.
