Small Business Advisory Council

The Small Business Advisory Council (SBAC) is a consortium of business leaders and cybersecurity experts created to address the unique cyber readiness challenges faced by small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Our goal is to bring together a diverse group of business owners and cyber professionals to understand these challenges and to develop practical solutions.  

Our Mission

CRI convenes business leaders to improve resources, capture insights, and take actionable steps to foster a cyber ready culture. 

What to Expect in 2025

Our calendar for the year features three gatherings (one virtual and two hybrid) designed to foster collaboration, share insights, and propel our initiatives forward. The kick-off meeting is held hybrid in San Francisco, CA, and supported by the RSA Conference. These meetings serve as touchpoints for members and supporters to share their experiences. The SBAC will develop practical guides, collect testimonials, and advocate for the concerns voiced by members.
