Cybersecurity for Economic Development

Protecting the Businesses you Support

Cybersecurity is a critical issue for all organizations, and economic development organizations are no exception. As these organizations work to support and grow local businesses, they must also be aware of the potential cyber threats that these businesses may face. That’s why DVIRC is excited to partner with MxD to offer a one-hour cybersecurity workshop for economic development organizations.

This program is co-sponsored by the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development.
