Talk One – “Preventing Disaster: How To Develop a Cybersecurity Plan In 7 Simple Steps“
Business owners, data professionals, and entrepreneurs will learn a proven 7-step formula to develop a cybersecurity incident response plan without getting stressed out or overwhelmed.
Threats in cyberspace have skyrocketed in recent years. Brute force attacks from automated hacking attempts, keyloggers, ransomware, viruses, malware, email phishing attempts and social engineering attacks are problems that today’s companies must fight back against. With so much corporate and personal information moving online and into the “cloud” there is a very real threat that our data can be stolen, exploited and leveraged against us.
Best case, you recover. Worst case, you go out of business.
Many businesses still do not have a comprehensive cybersecurity plan, and those responsible for business continuity and data security are stressed out, not sure how to start, what threats to look for, or how it will impact their business. Not only that, the risk of non-compliance for certain industries is a critical component to having a recovery plan.
This presentation will cover the 7 main components to creating a cybersecurity plan:
- The Gathering: Compiling & Reviewing Critical Documentation
- Value Your Ass(ets): Avoid Spending More Than They’re Worth
- Cybercriminal Lineup: Assessing Threats
- What Could Happen: Analyzing Risks
- Taking The Process Plunge: Mapping Key Workflows
- Protect Your Ass(ets): Applying Controls
- Bringing It All Together: Creating Your Custom Cybersecurity Plan
Attendee Takeaways:
– They will know what information they will need, how to value assets and assess threats.
– They will know how to react and recover from a cyberattack.
– They will have a blueprint for creating their own cybersecurity plan.
Based on the time allotted to this presentation, I can expand or contract it from an overview of the 7 steps to a comprehensive deep dive into each one of the 7 steps. I am able to do up to a 3 hour/half-day tutorial on this topic, but am equally comfortable squeezing it into a keynote or conference session. Please feel free to reach out to me regarding your interest.

Fostering the proper mindset in employees at every level is critical to providing the necessary mental tenacity to overcome daily challenges.
I know this better than most.
As a business owner since 1995, and as a martial arts instructor for over 20 years, much of my professional career has been spent overcoming obstacles – in business, in life, and in the martial arts. I offer you my experience and expertise in being able to impart to your audience specific methods for having the proper attitude and mindset so that they can perform their jobs to the best of their ability…and beyond. Plus I can do it in 60 minutes or less.
Everyone is faced with obstacles in life – it is the ones who have the “Warrior Mindset” that allow them to go though, around, under or over anything between them and their goals. This keynote enables the audience to identify with various traits of the warrior including patience, harmony, fortitude, courage, innovation, respect, discipline, teamwork and focus and learn how to apply them to the challenges they face every day in school, at work, with their relationships and more. It is a very empowering keynote and will leave attendees with a renewed sense of being able to achieve anything they set out to do – in business, in school and in life!
Using a structured and methodical approach, they will discover how the various traits of a warrior can be used to produce a mindset that will allow anyone to overcome life’s daily challenges. These can be harnessed in both a personal and professional setting – at home and at work.
Attendees will understand how to use patience, courage and fortitude to deal with problems. They will discover how to develop the mental tenacity and self-discipline to overcome feeling helpless when faced with seemingly insurmountable odds or difficult problems. This is done through examples and exercises that will leave them empowered and confident when dealing with people and situations that can sometimes appear hopeless as they learn to go over, under, around or through anything…or anyone that stands in between them and the end result they are trying to achieve!
