LEADERSHIP MATTERS A LETTER FROM LYDIA SALVEY, EDITOR IN CHIEF
I n this month’s issue of The Business Review we are discussing Cybersecurity, a topic that is on a lot of our minds lately. In a world that is now more virtual than ever before, it’s important to keep your personal and business information safe and protected. Included in this month’s issue is How to Protect your Business from Cybersecurity Threats, 11 Ways to Protect your Company and Customers when Taking Online Payments, 5 Smart Ways to use Cloud Computing for your Business, and 8 Tech Security Tips for Creating a Safe Home Office . At this month’s Chamber Forum, the acting director for the National Counterintelligence Security Center, Mike Orlando, spoke on Nation-State Threats to the U.S. Private Sector. Included in his remarks were business threats from countries such as Russia, China, North Korea and Iran, and how these countries “target companies’ trade secrets, technology and intellectual property, and how businesses can protect themselves.” If you missed this month’s program, be sure to read “Cyber Security Threats and How To Mitigate Risk Presented at the Chamber of Medford & Jackson County Forum,” a review by Rebecca Scott. Looking forward into other ways to protect your business and employees, on Tuesday, March 30th our annual Employment Law Seminar is taking place online with Oregon Employment Litigation Attorney, Sean P. Ray, from Barran Liebman. This event is free to attend and will include topics such as returning employees to the office during the recovery phase of the pandemic, asking employees to get the COVID vaccine, ways to structure employee telework agreements and handbook updates you should include in your employee guide for 2021.
