How To Keep Your Practice Secure In A World Of Cyber Risk

High-profile attacks on organisations like the NHS, Marks & Spencer and the Co-op have shown that cybercrime isn't just a problem for large organisations.

In fact, small independent businesses are often the easier target.

In this episode of The Optical Entrepreneur Podcast, Conor is joined by Jason Lydford, the straight-talking cyber leader behind Munio, a multi-award-winning IT support and cybersecurity specialist, to discuss one of the biggest risks facing independent business owners today.

Jason explains how cyber attacks happen, why phishing emails remain one of the biggest threats, and the practical steps every practice owner can take to protect their business, team and clients.

Whether you own one practice or several, this conversation could save you thousands of pounds, weeks of disruption and a huge amount of stress.

In this episode you'll learn:

• Why independent businesses are increasingly being targeted

• The most common cybersecurity mistakes

• How phishing attacks really work

• Why multi-factor authentication is essential

• How password managers improve security

• The importance of staff training

• Why backups matter more than you think

• How to identify the biggest risks in your business
