Cyber Security Lunch & Learn
Cyber Defense Strategies Made Simple: Prepare Your Business for an Attack
Thursday, April 2 (12:00 pm - 1:30 pm)
World Economic Forum's "Regional Risks for Doing Business 2019 Report", lists cyber attacks as the #1 risk for businesses in both North America and Europe. Regardless of industry, size or value, every business has cyber risk. 60% of businesses fold 6 months after falling victim to a cyber attack. This trend will continue into 2020. It's no longer a question of "if" your business will experience an attack. It's"when". Preparation is key. How resilient is your business?
It's mission critical to have a Cyber Defense Strategy in place. Often times, customers ask us “where do we begin?” To address this challenging question, we invite you to join us for an exclusive Lunch & Learn with Monica DeStefano, Managed Cyber Security Industry Expert, & Chris Jordan, Cyber Insurance, Compliance & Liability Expert. Let us help you prepare for the unavoidable cost of doing business in the modern technology landscape.
