Just like one small crack in your foundation can lead to structural issues down the road, one small crack in your cybersecurity program can expose you to much greater risks later.

U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Special Agent Jeffrey Huber, who runs point on cybersecurity for the state of Iowa, was on hand at a recent ProCircular roundtable to talk about the FBI’s Cyber Division and its role in addressing cybercrime.

More than 200 IT and technology leaders from hospitals, schools, and businesses in eastern Iowa came together last month at the Business Technology Conference in Coralville, Iowa – hosted by systems integration firm CEC (Communications Engineering Company) – to learn about new technology and how it can improve processes, profit, and efficiency.

Many types of technology were showcased at the event, but there were plenty of conversations about cybersecurity.

There’s something powerful about bringing a roomful of Iowa technology professionals together to talk about forward-thinking ideas. You quickly realize how cybersecurity and data breaches truly impact every organization and everyone – and that no organization is ever too small to have a plan.
