Cyber Security For Your Small Business: Webinar

Who is this Webinar for?

This webinar is aimed at start-up businesses and those who are interested in creating a start-up, no prior experience needed.

It could also benefit more established businesses that are looking at security as a business differentiator, to learn how it can be used to win new business.

Overview

83% of small and medium-sized businesses are not financially prepared to recover from a cyber attack -  which could mean going out of business.

This event aims to introduce start-ups and new businesses to the risks they face and provide top tips on how to avoid some common threats, protect their organisation and enable them to win new business and gain stakeholder support.
