Protecting Your Business in a Digital World

Community Power to Prosper Alumni Association Event

Running a business today means protecting more than your money.

From fake invoices and phishing scams to hacked accounts and payment fraud, small businesses are increasingly being targeted—and many owners don’t realize how vulnerable they are until it’s too late.

Join us for a practical conversation focused on helping business owners better protect their finances, operations, customer information, and business reputation.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

✔ Common scams targeting small businesses
✔ How fraudsters use email, text messages & social engineering
✔ Warning signs of payment and banking fraud
✔ Business email compromise & ransomware risks
✔ Simple cybersecurity steps every business should implement
✔ Ways to better protect your cash flow, customer trust & operations

WHY THIS MATTERS:

Cyberattacks and fraud are not just “big business” problems anymore.

Small businesses are increasingly targeted because many lack the protections and systems larger companies have in place. A single cyber or fraud incident can disrupt operations, impact cash flow, damage customer trust, and create long-term financial setbacks.

This session is designed to provide practical tools and awareness business owners can apply immediately.

Whether you’re operating a storefront, service business, contractor business, or growing company—protecting your business is part of sustaining it.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
