Join us for the next installment of our Siouxland Series Luncheon as we explore today’s cybersecurity landscape and what businesses and organizations can do to protect themselves.
This panel discussion will bring together local leaders from the private sector, public sector and law enforcement to share what they are seeing across the region. Panelists will discuss emerging cyber threats, online scams, common vulnerabilities and the real-world impact these incidents can have on organizations and the people they serve.
The conversation will also address how businesses, schools, local governments and law enforcement can work together to strengthen Siouxland’s cyber resilience. Attendees will hear practical perspectives on preventing attacks, recognizing scams, preparing for an incident and responding when one occurs.
Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT issue. It affects operations, finances, employees, customers and public trust. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of today’s risks and practical steps they can take to protect themselves and their organizations.
All Siouxland Chamber members and their employees are invited.
Cost is $40/person (includes lunch). The registration deadline is Friday, October 23rd.
