  Managers' Toolbox

 Postponed - new date March 10

Speaker:

Vaclav Vincalek, President and Founder, Pacific Coast Information Systems

Topic:

ON-LINE PROTECTION: How to secure your business and build consumer trust

Almost every business relies on its IT infrastructure, yet only 1 in 30 web applications are secure.

North American web applications and network assets are defending against over a trillion attacks per year. Security breaches threaten organizations’ reputations, revenue streams and operational continuity.  In troubled times, it’s more important than ever for organizations to take action to avoid such hazards.

At this session, Vaclav Vincalek will provide essential tips and practical steps you can take to protect your business and customers. 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.

About the speaker
Vaclav Vincalek has over 25 years of experience in the IT sector and is president of Pacific Coast Information Systems Ltd., a Vancouver-based company offering packaged infrastructure and network solutions. Vaclav is also a frequent and in-demand speaker about IT security issues.
