Join Our Essential Security Seminar for SMEs and Startups!

In the face of ever-growing security risks exacerbated by the rise of AI and cloud technology, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and startups are facing unprecedented challenges. Often, these organizations cannot afford to hire dedicated security personnel, forcing them to juggle security responsibilities with other roles. This leads to significant vulnerabilities, such as responding to supply chain requirements and protecting sensitive data from former employees.

To address these pressing issues, LRM Inc. – a renowned provider of the security education platform "SecuRio" – is hosting a valuable online seminar tailored specifically for SMEs and startups. This seminar, conducted via Zoom, invites participants to engage with expert speakers who will share actionable insights on developing realistic security strategies tailored to limited resources.
