Food For Thought – Ransomware Threats in 2023 3/2/2023 11:30 AM – 3/2/2023 1:30 PM

Moving into 2023, ransomware continues to be a major threat to businesses and organizations and shows no signs of slowing down. Cyberattackers use ransomware to encrypt your data to make it inaccessible until a ransom has been paid. The sophistication and complexity of ransomware attacks have increased significantly over the past few years, making them harder to detect and mitigate. In addition, many ransomware variants have adopted a "double extortion" tactic, where the attackers threaten to release the data publicly if the ransom is not paid. As a result, organizations must take extra measures to protect themselves against ransomware attacks.

 

The following topics will be discussed during our Food for Thought session.

  • Ransomware Threats in 2023: Understanding the Latest Threats and How to Protect Your Business.
  • The Impact of the Internet of Things on Ransomware and How to Secure Your Network.
  • Best Practices for Backups and Restoring Data After a Ransomware Attack.
  • Combatting Ransomware Through Improved Cybersecurity Practices.
  • Exploring the Role of Human Intervention in Preventing Ransomware Attacks.

Cape Coral Farmers' Market – Club Square 4/1/2023 8:00 AM – 4/1/2023 1:00 PM

The Cape Coral Farmers Market has been a favorite Saturday morning destination for 26 years. Over the years, we have grown to over 125 vendors. We are confident that we have all the delicious foods and local crafts that you love to shop for.

Fresh, local & healthy fruits and veggies, including Certified Organic produce, are the core of the market along with homemade and handmade foods and crafts. Fresh baked breads & pastries, homemade pickles, jams & jellies, Gulf fresh seafood, fresh meats, homemade pet treats, handcrafted soaps, essential oils, local honey, made-on-site guacamole, fresh, cut flowers, native plants & trees are just some of the fantastic products available.

Since shopping and eating seem to go so well together, the market has endless options. A food truck court and tent vendors offer BBQ, Crepes, Empanadas, Mexican food, German street food and healthy options like Kombucha, health smoothies, Acai bowls and salads.

Each season we do our best to give back to the community by offering spaces for non-profits, schools and community groups. Another way we give back is by offering the ability for our EBT/SNAP customers to shop for healthy and affordable food options. We are proud to say that 7 years ago, we were the first market in Lee County to offer ease of shopping for our neighbors.

We are also proud that we were the first market in Lee County to offer Fresh Access Bucks to our EBT/SNAP customers. This program gives $40.00 extra to purchase Florida grown fruits & veggies at the market. A healthy community is a great outcome.

The market can also be very entertaining with great musicians perform during the season. 

We hope that you choose to make the Cape Coral Farmers Market your Saturday Morning Destination!
