Ransomware and cybersecurity

$10

Ransomware and cybersecurity in general is a topic that is constantly in the news, from the ongoing Equifax saga, to the breaking news last week:

(In simple terms, if true – having any type of wifi access point creates a vulnerability for a business that can be utilized to inject ransomware, etc.)

We want to encourage a conversation about what it means to Businesses.

Here’s what we’ll be discussing at the event:

  • Types of Cyber Security threats (General)
  • Specific description of Ransomware (one of the more prevalent commercial threats)
  • Preventative measures used, but still getting attacked.
  • Preventative measures intro – Cloud is a strong option
  • Approach: How to fit the cloud into *your* environment
