Cybersecurity and Fraud Risk Management for Small Businesses
Intermediate
Online
Description
This webinar will address the applicability of cybersecurity and fraud risk management practices to small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) in light of the continued growth of the global economy, the increased ease of international commerce, and the fraud risks that are posed even to smaller businesses. With a focus on SMEs, this webinar will examine the key risks that are faced by these organizations and how they can fight cybersecurity and fraud risks with relatively simple risk management programs. Since small businesses do not have access to the same resources as large enterprises, this focuses on best practices that combine principles from the business management, finance, cybersecurity and fraud disciplines.
