About this event

The word "pwned" has origins in video game culture and is a leetspeak derivation of the word "owned" due to the proximity of the "o" and "p" keys. It implies that a cyber bad actor has dominated or conquered your company's security.

Some attacks are so devastating that they will shut your company down... permanently.

Why let someone else determine how your story ends? Why not be in control?

If you want to be the one who writes your journey, come with me on an interactive voyage where I will show you how to prepare for an attack, proactively.

This workshop is ideal for founders and other business owners/leaders.

Takeaways

You will learn:

  1. How to think like a bad actor
  2. How to assess the likelihood you will attacked
  3. How to lessen the likelihood of an attack
  4. How to take control of the situation from the start
