The pair specializes in providing highly effective training programs to entrepreneurs, industry experts, and any other type of person interested in sharing their message. With the help of Steve and Jayne Lowell, clients can see a rapid increase in influence, business opportunities, and satisfaction. Steve Lowell is a multi-award-winning global speaker, three-time #1 best-selling author, and founder of The High-Impact Speakers’ Showcase. His wife Jayne has her own accomplishments to boast, including her successful career in international business and sales. As the former co-owner of a clothing manufacturing company that did over $11 million in sales, she has become Steve’s partner in creating a seamless client experience. Jayne’s expertise in business mentorship, specifically her 7-figure mindset framework, enabled Steve to scale his training business into a 7-figure enterprise. Steve and Jayne’s connection has enabled the pair to build a multi-million dollar business and help others discover their love of speaking. Since opening their training and mentorship company, Steve has taught countless coaches, consultants, and global changemakers how to deliver the most inspiring message possible. With Jayne’s business acumen, these clients have also gained access to hundreds of speaker leads through the resources she provides. This continuous high-touch support enables the Lowells’ clients to continue uplifting audiences with stories of success, failure, and perseverance. Since Steve has always loved the stage, he handles client training. His background as a musician which began at the age of six has prepared him to handle all kinds of people and situations with ease. Steve’s years of experience refining his speaking skills and grounding them in neuroscience have also propelled him to become one of the best public speaking instructors out there. Jack Canfield, the co-author of the internationally renowned book Chicken Soup for the Soul, has applauded his approach to teaching people from varying backgrounds how to create a personalized message that resonates with crowds globally.

The pair are passionate about their work and deeply believe that the power of spoken word should never be underestimated. “The purpose of speaking is not to transfer information, although that occurs in the process,” says Steve Lowell. “The true purpose of speaking is to convey emotion. When you express a message in front of an audience–live or virtual–you automatically become a more credible, engaging figure than you would be in other settings. When someone is in front of you on a stage or screen, their body language, facial expressions, stature, and voice become an inseparable package that communicates much more than written words ever can.” Media Contact Name: Jayne Lowell Email: jayne@stevelowell.com Release ID: 879948

Deloitte Partners with Memcyco to Combat ATO and Other Online Attacks with Real-Time Digital Impersonation Protection Solutions

Memcyco

Memcyco will showcase its solutions at Deloitte’s annual Cyber iCON event, demonstrating how organizations can build effective defenses to protect their customers against digital impersonation fraud Memcyco Inc, the real-time digital impersonation detection and prevention solution provider, and Deloitte, the leading consulting, advisory, and audit services firm, today announced their strategic partnership in the cybersecurity sector. The partnership enables Deloitte to extend this range of solutions offering customers Memcyco’s industry-leading anti-impersonation software. The solutions will be offered globally in regions such as the EMEA, LATAM, USA, and others. Deloitte and Memcyco’s pivotal collaboration combines the former’s consulting expertise with the latter’s cutting-edge platform for detecting and preventing digital impersonation fraud in real time. This alliance will elevate fraud prevention to a new level, helping government organizations, enterprises, and brands protect themselves from damage and safeguard their reputations from being tarnished through attacks that use phishing sites to target their customers. By virtue of their partnership, Memcyco and Deloitte will leverage additional solutions related to integration and cooperation, such as Deloitte’s Strategic & Reputation Risk Services. This multidisciplinary synergy ensures a holistic response to threats, capitalizing on each organization’s area of expertise and accumulated experience, thus offering more robust and complete solutions to clients. Memcyco provides a platform for real-time detection, protection, and response to online impersonation attacks, whereby malicious actors use phishing, smishing, and other techniques to direct customers to fake pages that look and feel much like the real thing. These attacks trick users into giving up their personal data, such as login credentials and credit card information, which is subsequently used for ATO (account takeover) and other online attacks, leading to data breaches, theft of funds, and ransomware. Unlike other solutions, Memcyco is singularly able to safeguard the “window of exposure” between when a fake website goes live and when the attacker attempts to use stolen data to access company web pages, using real-time alerts to warn users not to trust the spoofed site, as well as tracking attacker and victim activity. Addressing this window is crucial for organizations to be able to protect themselves from data breaches, financial losses, and reputational damage while protecting their customers from identity theft and financial harm. Memcyco also provides organizations with full insight into attacks, including a list of all victims. This data not only gives the organization improved visibility, but also helps risk engines to predict fraud more accurately, thereby significantly decreasing remediation costs. “Memcyco is delighted to build a partnership with Deloitte due to its dedicated team, expertise, and innovation capabilities,” said Israel Mazin, CEO of Memcyco. “Our shared commitment to empowering organizations to make informed decisions about their cybersecurity strategy is at the heart of our collaboration. In the long term, this partnership will pave the way for organizations of all sizes to mitigate impersonation and brandjacking attacks and to gain more trust from their customers.” Memcyco will showcase its solutions at the third annual Deloitte Cyber iCON event in Spain on Jan 23, 2024. Cyber iCON allows businesses to gain first-hand knowledge about the most prevalent and sophisticated cyber threats they face today. Attendees will be able to learn about the latest strategies and countermeasures they can employ to safeguard themselves against advanced threats via real-world, interactive scenarios. Memcyco’s representatives will join Deloitte’s experts on-stage to discuss the dangers presented by digital impersonation and to introduce businesses to their comprehensive solution for mitigating such risks. Memcyco will also participate in a joint panel discussion and presentation alongside Deloitte’s expert cybersecurity consultants. About Memcyco Memcyco provides real-time digital impersonation detection, protection and response solutions to companies and their customers. Their real-time, agentless solutions are unique in fully safeguarding the critical "window of exposure" between when a fake site goes live and when an attacker attempts to use stolen data to access company web-pages. Memcyco alerts users who visit fake sites and gives organizations complete visibility into the attack, allowing them to take remediating actions. Led by industry veterans, Memcyco is committed to ensuring the security and digital trust of its customers - and of their customers. For more information, visit www.memcyco.com/.
