SUMMARY:Cybersecurity and Fraud Awareness
DESCRIPTION:Join the Erie and Lafayette Chamber for a Seminar on Cybersecurity and Fraud Awareness\n\n\n\nWe invite you to participate in an essential discussion regarding a critical topic that impacts businesses of all sizes: cybersecurity. In an era characterized by ever-evolving and increasingly sophisticated digital threats\, it is imperative for organizations\, especially small businesses\, to fortify their defenses against cybercriminals.

Empowering staff with the knowledge and tools necessary to safeguard the company and themselves against cyber threats.\n\n\n\n\nDate: April 16th\, 2023\n\nTime: 7:30am - 9:00am\n\nLocation: Erie Social Club - 105 Wells St. Ste. 120\, Erie\n\n\n\nWe believe that this seminar will provide valuable insights and actionable strategies to enhance your organization's cybersecurity posture. Your participation is crucial in addressing these pressing concerns and strengthening our collective resilience against cyber threats.\n\n\n\nPlease RSVP to confirm your attendance. The cost is $5.00 and will include a light breakfast. \n\nWe look forward to your active participation in this important seminar.\n\n\n\nPresenter:\n\n\n\nMark Searls (Owner & President) - TeamLogicIT\n\nMark?s background includes a 30-year career in IT that started with Cessna Aircraft Company as a programmer/analyst soon after earning his B.S. in Computer Science from Wichita State University.
