Cybersecurity - Protecting Your Firm from Itself

About the Event:

Cyber threats are still evolving, with hackers increasingly targeting employees rather than devices. As cybersecurity becomes more of a training problem than a technological one, new defenses are needed to protect against data breaches and theft. This session moves beyond typical tech recommendations to focus on communications with employees. Simplified guidance can provide firm members with manageable tactics to avoid granting access to the firm’s networks and bank accounts.
