(PRWEB) June 14, 2007 -- What: "Is Your Business Everybody's Business?" -- Cyber Security 101 Awareness Education for Your Employees.
The National Cyber Security Alliance and its partners, the Maryland Anti-Terrorism Advisory Council, Small Business Administration and the Department of Homeland Security, will host a webcast that will provide your employees with information on:
•
The latest threats employees may come across while they use the Internet at work (spear phishing, unencrypted data and malicious codes);

Precautions employees can take to help secure sensitive and confidential information at your company or organization;
•
Operating in a wireless world…are the threats different and how do we protect ourselves from any new threats;
Confirmed Panelists:

•
Uriel Maimon, Senior Researcher -- RSA, The Security Division of EMC
When: Thursday, June 21st - 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. (EST)
Who Should Attend: Employees of small and mid-sized businesses, organizations or government agencies.
Overview:
Providing employees with continued Internet security awareness training is critical to securing government agencies'/small businesses' networks. Without proper awareness training, employees may engage in dangerous cyber security habits like downloading unsolicited email attachments, divulging sensitive information to phishers or not encrypting critical company or customer information.
Such mistakes have cost small/large businesses and government organizations dearly in the past. Just last year, a government agency employee had their laptop stolen, which contained thousands of unencrypted files of sensitive information on it. The result of such a breach cost that agency embarrassment, loss of confidence and possibly millions of dollars. This threat is not contained to government agencies. According to a 2005 FBI Cyber Crime Study, nearly nine out of ten companies and public institutions surveyed suffered a cyber security incident in 2005. Moreover, the average loss per incident was $203,606.
To make sure your employees don't become "the weakest link in your network security," and are instead your "first line of defense," this webcast will arm your employees with the basic training they need to identify and respond to the most recent Internet threats they may face while using their company computers.
