Description
The Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce invites you to a seminar on Cyber Security, presented by Heyl Royster.
Threat to businesses growing more serious every day
Cyber-attacks are increasing at an alarming rate, both in number and sophistication. The vulnerability of small businesses to a cyber-attack is increasing due to the fact that most don't have a plan in place to protect themselves. The amount of damage cause by individual attacks is climbing into the multimillions. The chances of a company falling victim to an attack continues to rise. Businesses of all sizes need to more effectively manage the ongoing risks.
