ACCESS THE WEBINAR RECORDING BY FILLING OUT THE FORM IN THE SECTION BELOW.
Description
Cited as a top 5 business concern in a global cyber risk perception survey by 80% of respondents, cyber risk is a critical factor that organizational leaders must manage in today’s environment (Marsh & McLennan LLC, 2019).

This webinar will focus on risk management, risk mitigation, business decisions and policies and procedures as it relates to Cybersecurity. Hear how you can help mitigate your organization's exposure against data incidents and availability resulting in massive financial and reputational losses.
