Lunch & Learn Webinar:
MA Data Protection Law - Are You Compliant Yet?
Please join us Thursday December 9 from 12:15-1:00pm for a free lunch time webinar: MA Data Protection Law - Are You Compliant Yet? The new law went into effect March 1 and we're still getting a lot of questions. Are your security patches up to date? Is your Antivirus protection up to date? If you don't know, you could be breaking the law.

If you're not sure if you're compliant with the new regulations, join us for a lunch & learn webinar on Thursday December 9 at 12:15. We'll explain what the new law requires in plain English, and answer all your questions.

If you or someone else in your office would like to sign up for the webinar, please call (978-692-4200) or email us and we'll get the dial-in information to you.

Do you have a topic you'd like us to cover in the future? Let us know!
