Hacking FinTech: Cybersecurity in FinTech, Crypto and DeFi

At our next FinTech PR Meetup we'll be discussing various cybersecurity vulnerabilities and concerns in FinTech, Web3/Crypto and Decentralized Finance (DeFi). You will walk away with knowledge about:

• What are APT groups and why are they hacking into everything?
• Recent hacks, what's next in cybersecurity in FinTech overall
• Same, but in in Crypto/Web3
• Then same, but deeper still into DeFi in particular

Word on the street is Mohsan is hilarious, so this will not be your typical cybersecurity talk. You'll hear about recent hacks, where we are now and where do we need to go.

Join us on Tuesday, March 21st from 6:00pm to 10:00pm at Parallel18 offices at Parada 18, and on Facebook Live to hear Mohsan share his valuable insights and experience on cybersecurity.

The presentation will start at 7pm sharp.

This will be a content-heavy presentation with networking, food, and refreshments. Seating is limited so reserve your ticket.

After the presentation we will head to La Penúltima on Av. Juan Ponce de León for networking.

Please share this event with other influencers who will not only benefit from the event but will be able to join our ever-growing FinTech community in Puerto Rico.

If you're unable to attend in person, we will be broadcasting the event via Facebook Live: https://www.facebook.com/FinTechPR
