Globinar Challenges and Solutions to Cybersecurity Adaptation by SMBs

Promises and Perils of Cybersecurity: Privacy Program Management and Organizational Controls
Every small business owner has heard the pitch: buy the right tool, check the right boxes, and your cyber and privacy worries disappear. So why do breaches, ransomware, and privacy complaints keep landing on companies that thought they were covered? Join us for a candid conversation with Keyaan Williams, Managing Director of CLASS-LLC and a risk governance leader who has spent more than two decades building cybersecurity, privacy, and AI programs for organizations around the world, after years managing large security programs at the CDC. We will explain what a well-run program can do for your business, including winning customer trust, opening doors to larger contracts, and giving you confidence when something goes wrong. We will also be frank about where programs quietly fail, from wasted spend to false confidence to unclear ownership. You will leave with practical ideas for deciding what to protect, who is accountable, and how to make smart choices on a small-business budget, delivered with the clarity and humor Keyaan is known for. Bring your questions, and your skepticism.
