HR professionals and business owners are increasingly being targeted by AI-powered scams involving payroll changes, benefits information, employee records, and leave administration. Join us for an in-person HR Roundtable event in Palmer with networking and an engaging presentation on AI and Cybersecurity for Local Business.

This session explores how cybercriminals use phishing, deepfake voice messages, and AI-generated communications to impersonate others and gain access to sensitive data. Participants will learn practical techniques for verifying requests, safeguarding confidential information, and reducing the risk of costly human error. 

AI & Cybersecurity for Local Business is an essential presentation designed to protect local businesses, which cybercriminals target nearly four times more often than large firms. With 99% of these attacks driven by profit and median ransomware payments hitting $100k, a single breach can be devastating to a small business. We’ll explore how artificial intelligence acts as a double-edged sword, empowering attackers with automated hacking and realistic voice and video cloning, while also providing new defensive capabilities. Attendees will learn actionable, budget-friendly strategies, discovering that effective cybersecurity is about consistency and awareness.
