Webinar: LESSONS FROM THE PANDEMIC BUSINESS CONTINUITY, DISASTER PLANNING AND CYBERSECURITY

Wednesday, April 29, 2020 - 2:00pm to 3:00pm

Presented by Luis Alvarez, Alvarez Technology Group

Right now, it’s difficult to think about anything but the pandemic and its impact on business. The fact is, beyond COVID-19, the cybersecurity threats to business are growing and we’ve all learned the critical importance of disaster planning and business continuity. 

Luis Alvarez will speak about a range of topics including:

  • Recapping threats from 2019: From ransomware to crypto-jacking and everything in between, we cover the year’s largest, most concerning threats that hit businesses large and small.
  • What we can expect in 2020: Are the same threats going to target businesses this year? Or are we in for an even worse year with more advanced forms of cybercrime? Everything you need to know.
  • What we did NOT expect in 2020: The COVID-19 Pandemic. Best practices for Work from Home employees. Business continuity and how to plan for the unexpected.
  • The NIST framework and what’s required: Discover how both the public and private sectors can improve their ability to prevent, detect and respond to threats of all types to stay safe and secure using the Cybersecurity Framework created by the National Institute of Science Technology (NIST), the gold standard for Cybersecurity.
