Every organization in every sector and every connected device is a potential cyber target.
With the increase in Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) activity and trending attack methodologies and tactics due to AI, cyber securing public safety network systems can no longer be an after-thought because no network structure is 100% secure. The ramifications of unsecured equipment and network systems could be disastrous from loss of data, mission-critical operations and interoperability, and potentially loss of life. Cybersecurity processes and policies need to be implemented to ensure they are secure inside and out. This discussion will provide insights for thinking beyond the functionality of equipment and systems and thinking through securing the entire operational processes of a public safety organization. The discussion will also provide information on identifying areas of vulnerability, recommendations for attack preparedness and a multi-faceted security approach to close gaps in the security stack

Takeaway

1. Learn about the importance of secure equipment and systems to protect interoperability and communications data
2. Learn how to secure network systems inside and out
3. Learn how to identify areas of vulnerability
4. Learn about what is means to implement Defense in Depth security across your agency
