Cybersecurity Considerations in the Construction Industry


What would your clients do if they were completely shut out of their company emails, operating systems and electronic databases? Could they operate without these systems and data? What could happen if this data falls into the wrong hands? What can your client do to protect and regain access to their systems and data?

In recent years, in addition to health care and financial services, the construction industry has been one of the most heavily targeted industries for cyberattacks. The costs and ramifications of such attacks can sometimes be substantial enough to threaten to put a company out of business.

In this segment, the presenter discusses common and often-misunderstood vulnerabilities of the construction industry, what steps construction companies can take to protect themselves, and best practices should your client fall victim to a cyberattack.
