Small-business owners, entrepreneurs and startups can learn how to protect their Windows 11 systems from hackers Thursday, Feb. 19.

Paul Johnson, Marree Reed and Ian Moon will lead a Wyoming Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Network webinar, titled “Windows 11 and Outlook Security Settings,” from noon-12:30 p.m. To register, go here.

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.

Many Windows 11 users are not aware of the security settings available to protect their systems from hackers and vulnerabilities. The webinar will walk attendees through those settings, as well as best practices to keep their Outlook data safer as well. A live demonstration will be provided in which attendees can follow along on their own computers.

Johnson is manager of the Wyoming SBDC Network’s Cybersecurity Program.

Reed is a cybersecurity program assistant in UW’s Cybersecurity Education and Research Center and a part-time employee with Institutional Marketing.

Moon is a cybersecurity program assistant with the Wyoming SBDC Network’s Cybersecurity Program and a recent graduate of UW’s Computer Science Program.
