Cybersecurity focuses on protecting organizations, large and small, from digital attacks by keeping information and networks safe. Experts have the ability to detect vulnerabilities and make recommendations that ultimately mitigate risks and develop best practices for maintaining their organization's security.
With organizations moving their security to the cloud, an increase in sophisticated cyber attacks, and the recent expansion of remote work, the need for cybersecurity professionals is also growing.
Join us on Wednesday, May 26th as we talk with cyber professionals across different functions within the cybersecurity space. Each individual brings a unique perspective and insight into what their daily lives entail.

Webinar One
Responding to COVID-19 Changing the Cybersecurity Landscape
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic we have seen a massive increase in cyber-attacks. In this webinar we discuss some of the measures people have taken to help those attacked while disabling some of the attacks. This is being done by companies and also by individual volunteers who have come together to create a taskforce to protect the people and institutions fighting these invisible attackers.
Webinar Three
What We Can Learn to Better Prepare for the Next One
In this week's webinar, we discuss innovative methods we can use to gather a complete data set on these attacks, analysis techniques that might be useful in examining this data set and potential recommendations that will arise as a result of the analysis process, and what data is available now and why it's not enough. We also touch on how you can get involved to help now and what we can do to prepare for the future.
