The Small Business Center at Fayetteville Technical Community College and the Fayetteville-Fort Bragg Chapter of ISSA will host a free webinar about cybersecurity at 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 6.
The webinar will discuss why and how small business owners should guard their businesses against cyber-attacks, types of cyber-attacks, and cybersecurity tips. The webinar will be presented by Jon Sternstein, founder and principal of Stern Security.
Cybersecurity poses major risks for businesses. According to Vox.com, the United States is the top target worldwide for cyber-attacks and 83 percent of business owners don’t have a contingency plan for dealing with potentially costly security threats.
