About How to protect small business brands from internet crime

There are 65,000 attacks on small businesses a day (UK Government)

This workshop will give you the tools to make sure you’re not one of them.

60% of SME’s that experience a cyber-attack go out of business within 6 months.

The effects of a cyber-attack on any organisation can have a devastating impact on brand reputation, productivity, & staff but cleaning up the mess can result in huge financial losses, losing customers and paying ransomware demands plus regulators fines.

Attending this event will give you:

  • understanding of where your biggest business risks are and who the villain is
  • invaluable actions & tools to make you safer than your competitors by significantly reducing the likelihood of your organisation experiencing a cyber-attack
  • guidance about demonstrating the above to win more customers using certifications and insurance
  • advice about how and where to get professional assistance.

Many of the tips we share are simple disciplines that don’t need to cost money.

Our agenda:

  1. How do they target you?
  2. Why do they target small to medium businesses?
  3. What is the potential impact to you?
  4. How can you protect your business?
  5. Why do you need certifications and how do they help me win more customers?
