The Cybersecurity Act of 2015 and the Department of Homeland Security's Automated Indicator Sharing Initiative
NOTE: Prior to this event, please be sure to watch the on-demand presentation Homeland Security on CISA and AIS.
Description:
After viewing the recording linked above, please join us for this virtual roundtable to discuss topics addressed in the presentation. In the pre-recorded presentation, you’ll get an overview of CISA and AIS, and learn about the latest advancements assembled by the Department of Homeland Security to help identify and automatically block cyber threats.
Firms must manage endpoints, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, proxies, etc., which is becoming increasingly difficult with limited staffing. This event will be an opportunity for you to hear about new ways to automate updates for some of these systems, discuss the topic with your peers and ask questions of the presentation speakers.
