Topic: Cybersecurity

How cyber criminals target small and medium-sized businesses with perceived limited security defenses to execute an attack. An employee opening a seemingly legitimate business email could be the start of a devastating security compromise.

Some Questions to Consider:

• How confident are you in your ability to detect (and stop) an attack in motion?
• Does your IT staff have the cycles, tools and expertise to defend you from sophisticated threat actors?
• Are you prepared for the financial impact of a data breach?
• How can businesses elevate protection of their users and most critical business assets with 24x7 threat detection and response?
• How can businesses reap the benefits of enterprise-grade technology and security operations support without the costs and complexity associated with building them yourself?

This Cybersecurity chat will inform, educate and arm you with the information you need to consider when looking to protect your business from the ever present threats from cyber criminals.
