Cybersecurity 101 – Session 3: Your Reputation Matters
Why attend
Florida ranks in the top three states nationally for cybercrime losses (FBI, 2024). The FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center logged more than one million complaints and $20.877 billion in reported losses in 2025, and business email compromise accounted for $3.046 billion of that.
13 Layers built this course to close that gap. The goal is not to frighten business owners. It gives them a clear, honest picture of the risks they carry, the obligations they have, and the questions they should be asking their internal IT teams and third-party vendors. You will be able to make informed decisions about protecting what you have built.
Who Should Attend
Business owners, CEOs, COOs, CFOs, CTOs, CIOs, and senior executives across South Florida’s primary industries: healthcare, financial services, government and public sector, manufacturing, professional services (legal, accounting, consulting), technology, and retail.
Attendees do not need an IT background. They need to care about operational risk, legal exposure, and the people who depend on their organizations.
What Attendees Leave With
- Understand how a business breach becomes a personal financial, legal, and emotional event for the owner, not just an organizational problem.
- Hear stories about what happens to the people behind the business: employees, clients, and the community relationships built over years.
- Understand how attackers specifically target business owners and executives as individuals, not just the organizations they lead.
- Understand what personal and professional protective measures every owner should have in place.
