GROWTH PILLAR: Cybersecurity & IT
WHO THIS IS FOR: SMB owners / Solopreneurs / Corporate escapees / Leaders building systems
WHAT THEY'LL GAIN: Actionable insights, hard-won lessons, real growth strategies
Most small business owners feel the same tension every week. The thing protecting your business is also the thing slowing it down. Margaret Dibor has spent 20 years on both sides of that line.
Margaret is the co-founder and Chief Information Security Officer at Dima Risk Solutions in Vancouver. She has worked across telecom, education, healthcare, and government. She sits on the board of the ISACA Vancouver Chapter.
Her story started in Poland, moved through England, and now lives in Canada. Each move taught her something about how businesses really protect their data.
In this episode, Margaret explains why most SMBs are over-equipped but under-protected. She makes the case for resilience over defence. She walks through why AI tools can quietly leak sensitive data with no way to retrieve it. She covers vendor due diligence, data sovereignty across Canada, the EU, and the US, and the simple frame she uses to decide when an owner should bring in expert help.
Key topics covered:
Margaret is launching a two-month pilot of her risk management platform for owners in health tech, fintech, healthcare, and finance. If you handle sensitive data and want a calm, practical roadmap before something goes wrong, this conversation is for you.
