LCC is committed to increasing awareness, providing practical knowledge, and improving skills in cybersecurity. Our goal is to empower you with the necessary knowledge, tools, and techniques to make informed decisions about cybersecurity risks. This includes protecting against data breaches, intellectual property theft, financial losses, and safeguarding your reputation—all at no cost to you.
Given that most cyber-attacks on small businesses are caused by system intrusion, miscellaneous errors in basic web applications, social engineering, and privilege misuse, LCC’s training is aimed at educating business owners and employees about the potential threats, risks, and consequences of these common security threats while also imparting knowledge on how to prevent, detect, and respond to such attacks. In addition, our training sessions will also touch upon security defensive mechanisms such as authentication, access control, auditing, and security incident response.
Our next seminar will be on May 10th, 2024
Register for the seminars through the LSBDC website.
