MEDIA ALERT: InfraGard launches SMB “State of Cyber Security” studyOn January 11, NY Metro InfraGard will launch a study of the current “State of Cyber Security” among small and medium businesses and similarly sized government agencies.
Jan. 11, 2012 - PRLog -- NY Metro InfraGard has teamed with Ponemon Institute (http://www.ponemon.org)
Speakers and panelists at the launch will include: • John Rostern, Managing Director, Coalfire Systems. • Keith O'Brien, Distinguished Systems Engineer, Cisco Systems • Rob Stephan, RSA • Thomas D. Smith, Director, Office of Cyber Security, NYS Division of Homeland Security & Emergency Services • Larry Ponemon, Ph.D., Chairman and Founder, Ponemon Institute Small and medium businesses are the backbone of the American economy. They are often also part of our nation’s critical infrastructures or serve as an irreplaceable supply chain to the major infrastructure providers. Recent well-publicized computer system breaches have clearly demonstrated that no business or government agency, large or small, is immune to attack. It is in the interests of all to harden their systems to prevent damage or unintended release of the information that is the lifeblood of their operations. This study will help SMBs better understand the risks, the threats, and their current security postures. The launch event to be conducted on January 11, from 6:00 to 9:00 PM ET, is a free, live, video webinar from the studios at IGtv. The webinar will include a live “chat”, along with a conference call line for registered attendees.
