Workshop

Event description

This event will cover the stuff they didn’t teach you at school, but which you really need to know. As a business owner, it’s important to be digitally safe, and look after your data. That can be confusing, expensive, and let’s be honest, dull. Which is why we’re going to demystify it and make it achievable.

Please note, this workshop will be held on location, see below for more details.

What will I learn and take away from the session

• How and why small companies are attacked by cyber criminals
• What you can do to stay safer, including a host of free resources
• How to make sure you’ve covered the basics of GDPR

Who should attend?

Small business owners, and those responsible for the security of data
