UW and Wyoming SBDC Network to Host Business Fitness Webinar Oct. 26

In today’s digital age, protecting sensitive information and financial transactions is more important than ever. However, small businesses are increasingly becoming targets for fraud and cyberattacks. Small-business owners will have an opportunity to learn how to protect their businesses Thursday, Oct. 26.

Jim Drever will lead a Wyoming Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Network business fitness webinar titled “Fraud and Cyber Protection for Under $500” from 2-3 p.m. To register, go here. Registration is free.

The Wyoming SBDC Network offers business expertise to help Wyoming residents think about, launch, grow, reinvent or exit their business. The Wyoming SBDC Network is hosted by the University of Wyoming with state funds from the Wyoming Business Council and funded, in part, through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration.

In this webinar, attendees will learn how to protect their businesses from security threats while minimizing costs and using the free or low-cost solutions that exist. This webinar will provide practical, actionable insights and tips for small-business owners to protect their operations.

Drever is the Wyoming SBDC Network regional director for Albany and Carbon counties. Previously, he was a marketing director and project manager at a software company, had a small consulting business and recently co-founded CyberWyoming with the Made Safe in Wyoming program.

Drever has been a source for cybersecurity for small businesses in The Wall Street Journal and has presented on the topic at national conferences. Beyond general business assistance, Drever specializes in e-marketing, e-commerce and risk management, especially cybersecurity. He is a certified ethical hacker and has a chief information security officer specialist certification with a background in vulnerability assessment, ethical hacking and cybersecurity risk assessment and management. He assists and advises clients about cybersecurity statewide.
