Cybersecurity experts address concerns at TCNJ

3/24/2015

Ewing, NJ – According to the New Jersey Chapter of the Small Business Administration, “For the 14th consecutive year, identity theft is the nation’s biggest threat for consumers, topping the annual rankings of filed complaints to the Federal Trade Commission. Experts will discuss emerging and potentially damaging cyber crimes, which industries are most at risk, and solutions for concerned business owners at The College of New Jersey, Ewing Township, NJ on Monday, April 20, 2015 from 8:30 a.m. - 2 p.m.  There is no fee for attendance and breakfast and lunch will be included.”
Cybersecurity not only focuses on protecting computers, programs, networks and data, but also establishes monitoring and resolution for businesses so that when an attack occurs, the business is prepared.  Today the question is not if, but when an attack occurs because the reality is that it will happen. For small business, a cyber attack can immobilize a company and cause a major disruption. We often comment that we would be lost without our GPS, cell phone, and other convenient, high tech devices.


Unfortunately, this convenience is a double-edged sword that brings along positive aspects of technology, as well as many inconvenient and sometimes devastating risks. In the business world, technology is essential, so along with the fundamental website, databanks, networks and confidential information, comes the responsibility of the employer to protect his assets and employees from cyber attacks.  This unique conference will explore how advancements in technology have introduced a new era in which businesses must prepare to protect their investments.
 

"If the very well supported and funded security departments of mega-corporations are being hacked and violated, then how easy can it be for someone to violate smaller companies?  Regularly the information and means need to protect our individual to corporate identities have to be updated because everyone is vulnerable to attack," says Lorraine Allen, Regional Director, Small Business Development Center, The College of New Jersey.  "We applaud the U.S. Small Business Administration for their funding to help us increase this critical level of awareness to our business community to inhibit losses and prevent business interruption or internal disasters from occurring."
