Whether it’s protecting sensitive data, ensuring the secure delivery of services, or conducting cyber warfare, cybersecurity must be a top priority for all levels of government. However, in order to build an effective cybersecurity strategy that protects both information and citizens, governments must have a cultural foundation of cyber awareness, training, and vigilance. In Atlanta, we will convene federal, military, state and local leaders to discuss the elements of cybersecurity posture—from communication with executives, citizens, and other stakeholders, to ensuring government staff across the board employ cyber best practices, to maintaining adequate risk mitigation policies. Attend this event to hear important discussions on the following topics and more:
- Funding cyber infrastructure amidst competing priorities
- Responding to cyber attacks technically and communicating the response internally and externally
- Partnering across government to build cyber workforce capabilities
- Creating rigorous cybersecurity policies, standards, and controls
- Training technical and nontechnical staff on cybersecurity practices
- Building a cyber ecosystem
