Feb. 5 webinar covers protecting municipal data from hackers - Entrepreneur Generations

A Feb. 5 Route Fifty webinar will discuss how local governments and organizations can protect critical information from hackers. Click here to register.

Municipal governments, utilities, organizations and businesses have been increasingly targeted by cybercriminals over the past few years. The hackers usually get into computer systems, encrypt, and demand a ransom for unlocking them. Small towns are particularly vulnerable because they often use outdated technology and are less likely to have adequate cybersecurity.

The free webinar will begin at 2 p.m. ET and will last for one hour.

Presenters will be:

• Alisha Powell Gillis, Senior Editor at Route Fifty.
• Luis Taylor, Chief of the Office of Access and Function Needs at the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services.
• Mario Garcia, Acting Commander of the California Cybersecurity Integration Center in the Homeland Security Division.
