Solving Cybersecurity Problems - Episode 101 - Wichita Chamber Business Accelerator - Tevin Manuel

View Transcript

Tandem Cyber Operations was founded to solve cybersecurity problems in The Midwest, but has grown to serve organizations across the U.S. Traditional cybersecurity products can be expensive and unreachable for many companies. Tandem strives to change that by offering reasonable rates for high quality service. Cyber threats are continuing to grow daily and organizations need to start preparing their defenses today. There is a high demand for security work in higher education institutions. Meeting that need helps colleges and universities hone their own knowledge in cybersecurity and how to manage a threat if it arises.
