Join us to discuss as a startup how to identify and evaluate potential vulnerabilities and risks for your startup's infrastructure, systems, and data. Understanding about your cybersecurity weaknesses and developing targeted strategies to address and mitigate them effectively. To ensure optimal protection, startups should adopt a multi-layered defense system.
Cybersecurity is the collected set of technologies, processes, and procedures organizations use to protect their computing environments from damage and unauthorized data access perpetrated by cybercriminals or malicious insiders. Using strong passwords, updating your software, thinking before you click on suspicious links, and turning on multi-factor authentication are the basics of what we call “cyber hygiene” and will drastically improve your online safety.
