Cyber attacks are big businesses, generating billions of dollars for scammers each year. Small businesses have been targeted even more in recent years. With smaller budgets, small businesses often lack resources for expensive cyber security measures and training for employees. This makes them easier targets for bad actors and puts business owners, staff, and customers at risk of having their data compromised. A cyber attack can impact a business for years. Not only can it disrupt day-to-day operations and create financial burdens, but it can impact your customers' trust.

Did you know that 90% of all cyber attacks on organizations involve some form of social engineering? Did you know that 94% of all malware is spread through email? Did you know that 30% of employees admit to clicking on a malicious link or attachment in their email? All this means that most cyberattacks are preventable through staff training and implementing cyber security best practices.

This is open to all Chamber Members and your staff.
