Cyber Resilience for Contractors
Partner and Mullen Coughlin Co-Founder & CEO John Mullen joins Michelle Chia of Zurich North America at the International Risk Management Institute’s “2022 Construction Risk Conference” in Las Vegas, NV on November 16.
The session, “Cyber Resilience for Contractors,” will discuss actionable items that construction and other related organizations can use to improve their cyber resiliency before a data security incident occurs. For these types of organizations, cyber resilience is important to deter ransomware attacks and other cyber-threat vectors that can impact their industry reputation and ability to bid for, win and complete projects. John and Michelle also present implementable plans to minimize the impact of a data security incident after one has occurred.
IRMI’s 42nd Annual Construction Risk Conference will feature sessions from top industry speakers on innovative technologies for the construction industry, fresh and relevant content on construction risk, insurance and networking opportunities. Learn more about IRMI here, and the conference here.
