Here's something I don't see people talking enough about: protecting our attandee and speaker data. 43% of cyber attacks are against small businesses – because we're easy targets. And, as event pros, let's just think about what data we have access to. The amount of PII is actually somewaht staggering. The top three mistakes I see people make are: ❌ Downloading speaker or attendee lists and then not cleaning up their downloads folder on a regular basis ❌ Emailing PII 😱 ❌ Creating anonymous sharing links In this week's newsletter I talk about yet more common mistakes, talk more about what constitutes PII, and how we can protect our client's data – which in turn protects our livelihoods.
