ROSELAND, NJ--(Marketwired - Apr 21, 2016) - While technology is essential to drive business growth, it also can expose organizations to cyber-security risks that can lead to potentially devastating breaches. Small businesses are prime targets because they may not have the infrastructure or resources to defend their organizations against threats.

Cyber-security expert William O'Connell, ADP Vice President, Chief Business Security Officer - International, will discuss several best practices small businesses can follow to mitigate cyber-security risks in a panel discussion next month during National Small Business Week. O'Connell will address such issues as:

  • Strengthening your defenses.
  • Educating and engaging your workforce.
  • Keeping private information secure.
  • Developing an action plan for use in emergencies.

This panel is offered as part of the Small Business Administration's National Small Business Week programming. It will take place at the United States Institute of Peace, 2301 Constitution Ave NW, Washington, D.C., 20037, at 11:00 am ET on Monday, May 2, 2016.
