We believe that the management of Cyber Risks is an important consideration for Angel Investors and early stage companies as it has catastrophic outcomes in most cases. We will explore other avenues to share insights and best practices in an alternative manner in the future.

Are you and portfolio companies properly protected from Cyber Threats?
This Lunch & Learn is sponsored and hosted by MNP and presented by MNP's Senior Manager Enterprise Risk Services, Ron Borsholm
We'll discuss the following:
- Manage your day-to-day cyber hygiene on your phone, PC and web
- Assess that best practices are applied as part of your due-diligence
- How to hire the right experts to prevent or remedy critical risks
Whether it’s your trade secrets, payment information or customer records, cyber criminals understand how valuable your data is. With more than 4,000 ransomware attacks occurring each year alongside the development of 200,000 new malware variants, businesses can no longer afford a wait and see approach.
As hackers develop increasingly sophisticated tools to breach a rapidly growing technology landscape, you need a cyber security strategy to defend against a list of threats which evolve quickly.
It’s no longer a matter if a cyber attack will happen, but when.
Do you have a burning security question or concern?
To help you get more value from this event we invite you to ask any burning question you may have before the event and we'll pass it on to the security expert team at MNP. Simply email us at marketing@vantec.ca
