Positive review for WC4's Cyber 101 class!

Larry W., who attended WC4's Cyber 101 class on November 14, had this to say about his experience on AnnArbor.com:

I took this class yesterday. Exceeded my expectations. Information was presented in a manner anyone can understand. They demonstrated the risks, shared simple yet effective solutions to making my business more secure and clearly answered all of our questions.

In particular, they shared the fact that ALL wireless devices (ie. smartphones, tablets, laptops, bluetooth) are particularly vulnerable and desirable targets. Because many of us rely on them daily to in our businesses learning how to manage the risk is a good way to protect yourself and your customers information.

I was able to take what I learned in the morning and share it in the afternoon with a local non-profit. Effectively helping them to make their customer data more secure and closing an open wireless access point they didn't even know was operational!

If you don't know WHY 9-character passwords are better than 8, WHY PCIDSS compliance is important BEFORE you swipe a customers credit card in that FREE CARD READER on your smartphone. IF you don't know how EASILY credit card information can be stolen right out of your wallet or purse then do your business a favor and take a couple hours to learn how to manage the risks and protect both you and your customers data from the unthinkable.

The price is right...FREE!

Thanks WC4.

PS. Even for those of us with a strong IT background, getting a quick CyberSecurity refresher is a good idea.

Thanks for the kind words, Larry! We hope the WC4 can make a difference in cyber security for everyone in Washtenaw County, MI!
