Simple Ways to Secure Yourself: Contractor Evolution
Cyber security is something for tech companies, banks, and nerds to worry about right?
Cybersecurity is something for tech companies, banks, and nerds to worry about right?
Yeah, in 2010 maybe, but not anymore.
There has been a STEEP rise in the number of attacks on small businesses in the last few years and contractors are a prime target for hackers.
Why? Because in the trades we work with big chunks of cash AND we’re generally pretty terrible with tech stuff like firewalls and ransomware.
To a hacker, we’re the prime target.
Highlights:
- What is going on at a high level that is leading to an increase in cyber security in the contracting community
- The assets of value that hackers are looking for in a typical contracting company and how to protect them
- The most common threats and attacks you’ll be targeted for as a contractor
- What it costs you to buy security vs pay for damages
- The 4 stupid things most business owners do that leave themselves open to hacking
- How to tell if the software has legitimate security measures in place
