Description

October 13 – The Causes
It’s no secret that companies around the world are under attack. Prior to COVID-19, breach rates were on the rise, but now hackers have only become more aggressive in their attempt to steal or hijack your data to try to extort money and do irreparable harm to your company’s reputation. With a cyber-attack happening every 39 seconds on average, complacency is no longer a viable strategy. This first webinar focuses on the latest breach statistics and the methods being used by cyber criminals to break into your system.

October 20 – The Restoration
Since a disaster is more a matter of “when” and not “if,” it’s critical to have a plan in place to ensure a rapid recovery. Whether it’s a natural cataclysm or a human-made catastrophe, having actionable, tested steps in place to recover could mean the difference between a brief outage and weeks of downtime.

October 27 – The Solutions
Over the past two weeks, we’ve discussed the tactics used by hackers to get into your systems and how to respond once they are in. It’s only a matter of time until your organization is hit with a cyber incident, but why wait? For every doom and gloom story we can tell, there are also instances where another organization’s proactive defense has helped to avoid a cyber-attack. Join us as we discuss strategies your company can implement to move your IT environment from reactive to proactive. We will also share examples of current clients whose proactive positions have had a real impact in thwarting hackers' attempts at infiltrating their organizations.
