Cyber Security webinar
Speakers from NexSys IT, Cythera and Planned Cover discuss how you can take control of your cyber security in 2020.
This CPD webinar was held on 16 September 2020 and is now available for PURCHASE ON DEMAND.
Cyber crime costs the Australian economy $1 billion each year and there have been some widely publicised cyber security breaches in the media in the last few months, including well-known companies such as Lion, Toll Group and even ASIO. There has been an 80% increase in the rate of sensitive information and data loss since 2019. With COVID-19 sending many people to work from home, it’s important to consider how you are exposed.
It doesn’t matter whether you are a large or small practice – you can still be at risk from a range of attacks. This timely webinar about cyber security will demonstrate how you can take control and be prepared.
NexSys IT security services are powered by Cythera, who specialise in servicing small to mid-size businesses throughout Australia. Planned Cover has a wealth of knowledge about cyber insurance. Together, our speakers will present key insights to help you better prepare your practice for what’s coming next in cyber security. The webinar will cover the following elements and allow time for questions after the presentation.
- Cyber Security in 2020
- Examples of Cyber Incidents
- Your responsibilities for Cyber Security
- Cyber insurance
- What you can do to be protected
