Calling all who own a computer or cell phone and interact with others personally and professionally!

You protect your physical and human assets (buildings, equipment, materials, wellness, and safety), but how well do these assets work without access to the information? How much would you pay if you lost this data? Do you have a plan for security?  Are you protecting your privacy and those you interact with?  Join us for a series of topics covering the importance of your data security.
