Cybersecurity: Improving the Human Firewall & Protecting Identities
As part of our Professional Speaker Seminar Series, Elmhurst Chamber of Commerce member EMPIST will be presenting a one-hour seminar on Cybersecurity: Improving the Human Firewall & Protecting Identities
Small-to-medium sized businesses are prime targets for cyberattacks, but the right knowledge and strategies can effectively defend against these evolving threats. This presentation focuses on empowering your team to become a critical line of defense against cyber risks. Attendees will learn about the essential role employees play in combating cybersecurity challenges and discover actionable steps to protect sensitive data and identities. From recognizing phishing attempts to implementing multi-layered safeguards, this session provides the tools and insights needed to build a resilient human firewall.
Join us to strengthen your defenses, protect your business, and foster a culture of cybersecurity vigilance.
