Are you a disaster movie fan?

If you’re reading this, it’s likely you work in the cybersecurity field, or are interested in cybersecurity as a right-now issue. You may be a CTO, a CISO, an entrepreneur, a lawyer, a CEO. And it might be YOU that prevents the movie that we never want to see:

Iran targets a local water district. A hacker accesses equipment through default password. A sanitation chemical level is increased in the water supply.

“Of all the country's critical infrastructure, water might be the most vulnerable to hackers: the hardest in which to guarantee everyone follows basic cybersecurity steps, and the easiest in which to cause major, real-world harm to large numbers of people.”

We’re going to need all of us to do the work of securing the cyber safety of our community. And we’re here to help you get involved.

In this episode, we talk about HOW and WHY you might save the day.

From the Board Room to the Living Room — It takes a village to secure the village™️.



Article by Kevin Collier, NBC News: “50,000 security disasters waiting to happen: The problem of America's water supplies. If you could imagine a community center run by two old guys who are plumbers, that's your average water plant," one cybersecurity consultant said.” https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna1206
