Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin

About this talk:

As a cybersecurity professional, you understand the benefits of a Security Operations Center (SOC), but translating the need to your business leaders can be daunting, especially when it comes to AI. ChatGPT, hyped-up marketing and general confusion about AI and machine learning compound the problem. Join Adlumin expert Mark Sangser, VP, Chief of Strategy, as he explores these topics and masters the translation from the ones and zeroes of security to the dollars and cents with which non-technical business leaders are fluent:

  • How proactive security programs reduce risk and improve business outcomes in the face of cyber threats
  • Why full visibility across your organization is critical to stopping threats in their early stages
  • How AI and machine learning accelerate response times and empower security teams to contain threats

Lastly, Mark will evaluate various security solutions and provide a structured means of explaining capability and benefits to your business leaders.

Presenters:

Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin
Deb Snyder, Moderator, Senior Fellow at Center for Digital Government

About this talk:

In the realm of government cybersecurity, it is crucial to educate employees on avoiding unwittingly assisting cybercriminals who manipulate and deceive individuals. However, the current state of cybersecurity training typically follows this pattern:

  1. Mandatory cybersecurity courses like Phishing and Security Awareness Training (PSAT) are assigned to staff, often during their hectic onboarding period.
  2. Staff members quickly skim through the course content and complete a basic knowledge check.
  3. The same or similar course is repeated by staff as needed to meet compliance requirements.

Join our panel of cybersecurity experts as they discuss the best practices for developing a cyber-aware workforce. Some key takeaways include:

  • The shortcomings of traditional cybersecurity training
  • The value of a comprehensive cybersecurity education
  • Strategies for creating long-term behavioral change that effectively mitigates cybersecurity risks

Event details:

Friday, April 14, 2023
2:00 PM EST

Presenters:

Mark Sangster, Chief of Strategy at Adlumin
Deb Snyder, Senior Fellow, Center for Digital Government

About this talk:

Government agencies of all sizes face increased pressure to safeguard data, protect mission-critical operations, and stay compliant, but doing so can be particularly challenging for smaller agencies.

While many larger organizations have the resources to handle cybersecurity operations, smaller agencies are often constrained in addressing critical security needs. Municipalities, localities, smaller cities, and states all work with a vast amount of sensitive data that can be of value for cybercriminals, yet often aren’t equipped with the tools necessary to take command of security and compliance.

As a participant in this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

  • Detect and respond to cyber threats with limited in-house security
  • Minimize cybersecurity vulnerabilities
  • Automate compliance reporting
