Cybersecurity attacks continue to increase, resulting in compromise of privacy-protected information, theft of intellectual property, and disruption to business operations. The risks aren't limited to large, multinational institutions. On the contrary, the cost of cyber risk management and incident response can have a disproportionate impact on the small and mid-size companies that have to be most cost-conscious and disciplined in their approach to managing these issues.

We'll discuss and examine:

  • current trends in cyberattacks across sectors including (but not limited to) manufacturing, healthcare, and retail;
  • current trends in types of cyberattacks, including the rise of ransomware attacks; an overview of the legal liability that can arise under state laws and sector-specific laws;
  • how business entities can carry out a cyber risk assessment and develop an effective cybersecurity plan without breaking the bank;
  • and what steps to take if you discover a cybersecurity incident but don't have a cyber incident response plan in place.

The program will encourage participation from attendees, and will take a practical approach to assessing and managing cybersecurity risk in a tailored and cost-effective manner.
