'A Cybersecurity Attorney's Perspective' offered online

How can a company minimize its exposure in an age of increasing cyber risks?  There are no easy answers, but there are proven strategies that can help. In a webinar hosted by Wolf Hill Group, a national executive search firm focused on cybersecurity, Wolf Hill Group President Tara Kochis and McDonald Hopkins’ James Giszczak, Detroit office, will have an interactive discussion on “The Future of Workplace Security: A Cybersecurity Attorney’s Perspective.”

The interactive conversation is intended to educate, provoke, and inspire, and to facilitate the exchange of ideas and questions that will help all gain a better understanding of the current state of cybersecurity threats and the most effective ways to address them to protect business operations.
