CHICAGO - Stratosphere Networks, a Chicago-based IT managed service provider, will co-host a free workshop titled "Doing Business on the Digital World" on Friday, October 19 at Evanston Community Bank. The workshop is designed for local business owners looking to stay up-to-date on current online banking technology for businesses, best IT security practices to lower the risk of a data breach, and the legalities of digital transactions.

The event will include a panel discussion and Q&A session with Kevin Rubin, president and COO of Stratosphere Networks; Jessica Oldani, founder of Oldani Entrepreneurial Law, P.C.; and Ed Bettenhausen, senior vice president of Wintrust Bank Treasury Management. The panelists will offer tips and guidance to help attendees understand how to incorporate online transactions into their business operations and protect their organizations from cyberattacks, as well as reduce their data break risk levels.

"I'm looking forward to participating in this event and educating local business owners about IT security," Rubin said.
