Summary
Cybercrime is one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic exposures in business today – and for most businesses, employee behavior is what most often puts companies at risk. Hardly a day goes by that industry executives don’t hear about a security breach or incident involving the loss of sensitive data to hackers, and in most cases, it’s due to a lack of employee training, adherence to company policy or a myriad of other employee-related actions. Hear directly from Dean Rhoades, Federated Insurance, as he outlines the ways businesses can – and should – be preparing and training their workforce for an inevitable attack.
