Overview

Data security and privacy issues continue to plague businesses of all sizes. No matter where you look, the numbers are bad - really bad! But that doesn’t mean you can’t take steps to reduce these risks. In this session, you will learn about the key security and privacy risks facing businesses today and the steps you can take to mitigate these risks.

This session starts with a review of how cybercriminals attack businesses of all sizes and the related costs of these attacks.
