Affinity has teamed up with Pinnacle Financial Partners to host a lunch seminar to give businesses real-world, actionable tips on boosting their cyber security. The seminar features a panel of experts from every angle—legal, law enforcement, technology, and insurance—to give business leaders a full picture of why cyber security is important, and how they can achieve it. The event will take place at Pinnacle Financial Partners’ 1717 Mallory Lane location in Cool Springs (Brentwood) from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 pm. A complimentary lunch is included, but registration is required.

The expert panel for the event will feature insights from FBI Special Agent Casper Cromwell on the latest cyber security threats affecting businesses, as well as tips from Sean Wright, Affinity’s Founder & President, on how to make sure your business’s technology is safe from those threats. Attorney Mallory Ricci of Constangy, Books, Smith & Prophete’s Data Privacy Group will discuss businesses’ legal obligations with respect to data and the ramifications of a breach, and Jeff Adrian of Miller Loughry Beach will discuss business’s insurance options for protecting against cyber threats.

Cyber security can be a nebulous topic. That’s why we have gathered this panel of experts. Our hope is that this event will benefit our community by empowering business leaders to walk away feeling like they have a better handle on the risks they face, as well as what they can do to protect themselves and their customers.
