Vancouver Board of Trade hosts the Managers' Toolbox session, "Online Protection: How To Secure Your Business and Build Customer Trust" at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Vancouver in March. Pacific Coast Information Systems Ltd. President Vaclav Vincalek will provide essential tips and practical steps for businesses to mitigate the risk from hackers and cyber criminals.
Web security is even more important in the current economic climate, Vincalek noted in a recent interview (Computer Dealer News): "Businesses have to be on the safe and secure side because if they happen to lose or get their information corrupted, they'll just go down and potentially out of business that much faster. Partners have opportunities to help these organizations stay safe."
Attendees will learn:
* How and why cyber criminals target your business;
* The consequences of a web security breach;
* Why your business (not your hosting company or web design firm) is liable for any web security breach;
* How to protect your business assets and your customers' privacy.
Vincalek has over 25 years of experience in the IT sector. PCIS is a Vancouver-based company offering packaged infrastructure and network solutions. Vaclav is also a frequent and in-demand speaker about IT security issues.
