As a vital
component of the nation’s critical infrastructure, communications
systems are a target for cyber threat actors. Establishing a
culture of cyber readiness helps organizations detect threats to
emergency communications systems and enable coordinated,
effective response and recovery efforts. However, the 2018 SAFECOM Nationwide Survey
results indicated that while nearly half of public safety organizations
experienced a cyber disruption that affected their ability to
communicate, less than 15% of organizations conducted coordinated
response and restoration activities and only 7% deployed incident
response teams.
To maintain the integrity and continuity of
emergency communications systems, public safety organizations
must take definitive actions to respond to a variety of cyber
incidents and vulnerabilities. By implementing cyber incident
response strategies and maintaining ongoing cyber monitoring and
mitigation activities, as outlined in the National Emergency Communications Plan
(NECP), public safety organizations can successfully minimize impacts
from cyberattacks on communications systems.
This webinar will provide participants with
detailed strategies and best practices for identifying and
responding to cyberattacks on emergency communications systems.
Join this webinar to learn about:
- Common
cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities to the emergency
communications ecosystem
- Key
gaps in cybersecurity readiness, as identified by the SNS
- Leveraging
the NECP to implement cyber incident response and recovery
best practices
- Response
strategies for the first 48 hours after a cyberattack
- Resources
that address cyber incidents for public safety organizations
