The SCORE Orange County webinar, Counter Actions Against Ransomware For Small Businesses by Henry S Teng will take place Tuesday August 9th from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM PST

Back in May 2021 a cyber-attack known as ransomware shut down the fuel supplies of Colonial Pipeline for American Airlines and the northeast region for almost a week. Darkside, the perpetrator, demanded $4.4 Million from Colonial Pipeline before they would provide a key to unlock the frozen control and billing systems.

Businesses across a spectrum of industries, large and small, got concerned about their own situations and data protection. What can small businesses do to protect their digital assets against ransomware attacks?

Attendees will learn about the following topics:

  • Background on ransomware.
  • Current state-of-the-art Information Technology against ransomware.
  • A risk-based counter action strategy.
  • Practical tools & tips against ransomware.
