October 5, 1:00 pm Pacific/2:00 pm Mountain time | Strategies to address the "people" factor of Cybersecurity: a conversation with Drip7 Founder & CEO Heather Stratford

"Cybersecurity Education has evolved into its own industry category within IT over the past ten years. Ninety percent of data breaches can be traced back to human error.

Addressing the “people factor” of cybersecurity is both more complicated and often difficult for IT teams to successfully navigate."
