Cyber Security for Business Owners Who Don't Have Time for Cyber Security

About this webinar

Open to VIC / SA / TAS businesses in the Digital Solutions program. Not registered yet? Takes 2 minutes here.

Nobody starts a business because they want to think about cyber security. It sits on the list, it never gets done, and most advice about it is either terrifying or trying to sell you something. Meanwhile the scams have changed a lot in the last two years, and almost everything you were taught to look for has stopped working. The average cybercrime report from an Australian small business now costs $55,400.

‍
This session is neither terrifying nor a sales pitch. In 45 minutes we’ll go through what’s actually landing right now, how to spot it, and the handful of free things that make the biggest difference.

‍

What you'll learn

• What the scams actually look like now, why the old warning signs have stopped working, and a simple test that catches almost all of them
• The handful of free things that take a business from no protection to genuinely harder to hit, and the order to do them in
• Where your real exposure sits, including your email, your social accounts and the customer information you’re holding without realising
• What your obligations are around customer data, including the rule that catches health and allied health providers regardless of turnover
• What to do in the first hour if something goes wrong, and the free Australian support lines worth saving before you need them

What you'll leave with

A short action plan of practical fixes, all free or close to it, and none of them technical.

Who it's for

Sole traders and small business owners who know cyber security matters, but keep putting it off because it feels technical, scary or endless. No technical knowledge needed.
