Most cybersecurity advice is written for enterprises with deep benches and dedicated security teams. That is not your environment.
If you are leading IT at a small or mid-sized organization, you are balancing limited staff, competing priorities, and pressure to reduce risk without slowing the business down. You do not need a massive budget. You need a plan you can execute.
In this on-demand webinar, Shannon Brewster, experienced CISO and cybersecurity consultant, shares a practical 90-day game plan for building or resetting a security program in the real world.
This is a straightforward discussion focused on what to do first, what to do next, and what can wait. No theory. No scare tactics. No vendor pitch.
If you are starting from scratch or starting over with better focus, this session will help you move forward with clarity.
