Since the pandemic outbreak, there has been a significant increase in the popularity of virtual events. However, unfortunately, the threat of cybercrime has also increased. Cybercriminals are constantly in search of vulnerable businesses and their clients to exploit any vulnerable networks. In this blog post, we’ll share some important tips to save your virtual event platform from cybercriminals.

 

 

Create Awareness

Awareness is the key to fight against cybercrime. According to the research, negligence and human errors are responsible for 90% of data breaches. If the event hosts and guests and attendees are more aware of the methods that cybercriminals can use to attack them, they’ll be able to stay more alert and careful.

When you send out the invites for your event, you can include an additional document to warn people against potential threats. For instance, you can advise all your attendees to ensure that they attend your event using a private Wi-Fi network only. You can also encourage them to back up their data and download relevant security apps and software on the devices they use to attend your event.

Check Organizational Security Measures

You cannot expect guests and attendees to take all the necessary security measures if your organization isn't taking cyber safety seriously. Ensure you have a team of IT security experts to take care of all the necessary precautions and security measures. It’s also good to get some network penetration tests prior to the event to find out about any existing vulnerabilities in your network.

If you can't provide strong network security, then it’s better to use a third-party app or software to arrange your virtual event. Make sure that you choose a trustworthy company that can take care of all your needs.

Regulate and Monitor Event Access

Just because it’s a virtual event doesn't mean that you can let everyone in. Keep an eye on whom you invite and who’s attending the event. Even if you wish to keep your event open to the public to attract more attendees, it’s still important to monitor everything. If you notice any suspicious activity before, during, or after the event, don't hesitate to report to the authorities and taking necessary measures.
