Cyber Security and Working Remotely, What You Need to Know
Guest presenter: Michael Kennedy, Owner of Ostra Cyber Security
Location: Wherever you are!
7:45am - 9:00am
With many of us working remotely from our offices, now is not the time to be negligent with our on-line communications. Nathan Reddick from Ostra Cyber Security, will give us ideas and share ways that we can protect ourselves and our businesses from on-line security threats.These attacks can enter our systems in a variety of ways and the hackers are getting more and more clever with their computer infiltrations including using false stimulus check notifications! Scary, but true, in the past twelve months 67% of small and midsized businesses were victims of a cyber attack. If you experience an attack, almost half of the businesses experience at least 8 hours of downtime. Let's all learn together how to protect ourselves, each other and our businesses.

 In response to more vulnerable remote working situations, Ostra is offering their proprietary cyber-security solution free of charge to new clients, no strings attached. Our elite, enterprise-grade software is a simple download, paired with personal support which immediately protects your business’s sensitive information and devices.?

Start the new month out by joining us and enjoying a great morning of Virtual Networking. Now is the time that we need to stay in communication, share ideas and tell your stories to fellow Chamber Members. All you have to do is register for this event and you will be sent a link to the meeting! Join in on this great conversation with your fellow business leaders!
