5 Steps to Cyber Security for Businesses                                         

Lunch and Learn

Cybercrime is a hot topic. American businesses are now considered the hottest targets for Cyber Criminals worldwide who often focus on smaller businesses because they are most vulnerable and willing to pay a ransom. Ransomware is only one of many cyber threats.  Small and mid-size businesses are often most at risk, and have the most to lose. Better Business Bureau teamed with National Cyber Security Alliance and National Institute for Standards & Technology to help businesses create a plan to deal with cybersecurity. The 5 Steps to Cybersecurity is a scaleable program that any size company can use to create an individualized cybersecurity program.
