Emerging Cybersecurity Threats & Best Practice Solutions Seminar

Reinhart's Data Privacy and Cybersecurity attorneys presented about Emerging Cybersecurity Threats & Best Practice Solutions.

Advances in technology - email, Internet and remote access via laptops and smartphones - have made businesses more efficient and profitable but have also exposed organizations to risks for which companies may not be prepared. The business community has been inundated with horror stories of cyber threats and systemic attacks along with a corresponding flood of vendors with product solutions. For many leaders, the first challenge is sorting out where to start and what steps to take to be prepared.

To help bring clarity to this issue, Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren and Associated Benefits and Risk Consulting were proud to host Emerging Cybersecurity Threats and Best Practice Solutions. This complimentary half-day event featured experts discussing the critical issues executives should focus on and the best ways to navigate and mitigate cybersecurity attacks.
