Is your business cyber secure?

Is your business cyber secure? 
With hefty fines for data breaches it's worth finding out.

Businesses across the South West are being urged to step up their cyber security after a recent report by the British Chambers of Commerce identified that one in five businesses have been hit by a cyber-attack in the last 12 months






“The impact of a cyber-attack could be huge; there’s the time needed to fix your website and systems, a potential loss of customers, damage to your reputation plus disruption to business and productivity. It’s absolutely crucial that businesses are secure and can protect their data, relying on an IT provider may not be enough”.

Sally Foard, Director of Development - The Cornwall College Group

With the new General Data Protection Regulation also coming into force in 2018, bringing with it potential fines of up to €20 million, there has never been a better time to ensure that staff are aware of technology-related risks, and know how to protect both themselves and their business.

What: NEW One Day Cyber Security Workshop
When: 14th June and 6th July 2017
Where: Cornwall College St Austell, Tregonissey Rd, St Austell
