AM Skier Session: Many organizations that collect and store data are potential targets for hackers and cyber thieves, and camps are no exception. Information pertaining to families, including minors, staff and financial records need to be protected. With thieves expanding their universe, and with camps being staffed mostly by young and part-time employees, they are especially vulnerable to all forms of cyberattacks. This webinar will feature a cyber expert who will discuss strategies for protecting your information, focusing particularly on camps and youth travel programs and how to shore up weak spots in their defenses.
