Cybersecurity for
Businesses
Keep Your Data Safe!
Large companies like Target and Home
Depot spend hundreds of thousands to
protect their businesses’ cybersecurity,
and still they fail. The investment for the
average small business is actually very
affordable and properly implemented
techniques dramatically decrease risk.
What would the cost be if all your contact
information was gone, your financial system
was attacked and data taken or destroyed,
your intellectual property unknowingly sold,
or your computer crashed? What impact to
your reputation would there be if it got out
that you’d been hacked?
Chris Murphy
, an
industry computer security expert, teaches
small business owners the same key tenants
of corporate computer security: maintaining
the confidentiality, integrity, and availability
of your important electronic data. He
also teaches Safe Computing (#3109)
and Maintaining Privacy (#3110) at CFU.
Even if you rely on vendors for services,
it’s important to be aware of the risks out
there, and what you should expect from your
suppliers.

Protect Your Brand Before It’s Too
Late!
Your intellectual property is one of the
most vital parts of your business, yet most
business people, entrepreneurs, artists,
and other creative types do not have
these assets adequately legally protected.
This class covers intellectual property of
all types: copyrights, trademarks, trade
secrets, and more. Find out what the
differences are, how to protect your work/
ideas, and concrete steps you can take
to begin the process. This class may be
the most important two hours you ever
spend on your business.

Big Business Branding for Small Businesses
Strategies for Making Your Mark
Your brand tells customers or clients who you are, how you’re unique and why they should
choose you. Big businesses invest heavily in brand development, but small businesses often
see the brand as solely cosmetic. This is your opportunity to learn true brand fundamentals
and apply proven brand strategy secrets to your business. Learn how to think about and
build your brand as a strategic platform, not just a logo; how to position your company
in the market and in relation to competitors; and how to differentiate yourself and create
an emotional connection. Before founding the Douglis Group in 2014,
Tom Douglis
was
the managing director and senior brand strategist for Monigle Associates in Denver, vice
president at Enterprise IG in New York City, and held senior brand consulting positions in
Toronto. Douglis Group partner
Brenda Cutler
will also share her expertise in research and
design.
