1 Hour to Savvy Cybersecurity: 10 Threats Every Person and Business Faces—and How to Fight Them Now
Cybersecurity is one of the biggest threats we face— nearly every day we are hearing news of a new data breach, hack, or attack targeting our personal information. The numbers are astounding:
• 144 billion spam emails are sent every day
• 500,000 children’s identities are stolen every year—and they don’t discover it until adulthood…
• 100,000 new malware attacks are released on the Internet every day
• 1 in 5 businesses are the victims of business ID theft . 60% of those go out of business six months after a data breach
• 1 in 4 data breach victims later suffer ID theft
Learn the biggest threats out there and the best prevention methods you can take today.
This workshop will help you create an action plan to improve your cybersecurity and will provide a cybersecurity checklist to follow.

Presenter Sean M. Bailey is editor-in-chief of Horsesmouth and the creator of the creator of the Savvy Cybersecurity program.
