Unlock the secrets to safeguarding your small business's most valuable asset—its data—as I, Veronica Edwards, sit down with the astute CPA Michelle Tracz. Together, we dissect the perilous landscape of cyber threats that small businesses face, providing you with actionable insights to combat electronic data breaches head-on. From discussing the harrowing tale of a local business's bank account hack to imparting strategies on employee vigilance against cunning phishing scams, this episode is a must-have for those determined to shield their enterprise's sensitive information. We even wade into the nitty-gritty of implementing ironclad internal controls, ensuring your passwords are uncrackable and multi-factor authentication becomes your new best friend.
The conversation doesn't end there. Dive into the lifeboat of data backups with personal accounts of how they can be your saving grace amidst digital disasters. Learn why limiting who can access what within your company isn't just bureaucracy—it's the bulwark against data disasters. I'll share insights from my days at Price Waterhouse Coopers, bringing old-school wisdom to the modern challenges of device management and encryption. And we wrap up with something to soothe those lingering anxieties: a primer on cyber security insurance, the umbrella policy for when the storm clouds of cyber threats gather. Tune in, and equip yourself with the knowledge to keep your small business data secure and your peace of mind intact.
