Description

Cyber-attacks are in the headlines weekly and small businesses are in the cross hairs of the cyber criminals. In fact, it is widely reported on the internet that 43% of small businesses are affected by these attacks. Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting critical systems and sensitive information from digital attacks and all other threats. Learn why every business that uses technology requires cybersecurity no matter how small. Hear directly from Rodney McLeod, CEO of McLeod Information Systems. Rodney is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and has 30 years’ experience in Cybersecurity. If you knew an attack was occurring tomorrow, would you be confident in your answers to the following questions? Have you identified all devices on your network? Do you know what data types and locations are in your organization? Do your employees know how to detect phishing scams? Do you patch or update your computers often? Do you have a backup strategy? Attendees will receive information on the purpose of cybersecurity, what risk they are facing and simple steps they can take to reduce their cybersecurity risk by 80%. Cyber Chat & Coffee will be hosted at Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce Blue Cross Blue Shield conference room, 4922 O'Hear Ave, Unit 101, North Charleston, SC on Thursday, Aug 11th from 8 – 9 am.
