• SBA: Made to Grow: Cybersecurity Training for Manufacturers

  •  
    9:30 AM - 11:00 AM
  • Location
    Online

  TASC/TGIC posting of this event does not constitute sponsorship, endorsement, recommendation, or favoring by TASC/TGIC.

  Who: SBA

  What: Made to Grow: Cybersecurity Training for Manufacturers

  Join us for a free virtual workshop to learn more about the federal resources available to help protect your company against cyber-attacks. The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) will be on hand to provide training on Cybersecurity and Counterintelligence, specifically for manufacturers and exporters.

  Cyber and insider threats pose significant risks to organizations, networks, and critical infrastructure. Cyber threats involve malicious activities that compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of systems and data, often executed by external actors but sometimes involving insiders who exploit their access. The insider threat refers to the potential for individuals with authorized access to harm their organization, either intentionally or unintentionally. These threats are significant concerns for both cybersecurity and counterintelligence.

  In this training, participants will receive valuable insights from Federal agencies responsible for cybersecurity and counterintelligence initiatives. These initiatives focus on addressing advanced threat actors and managing the evolving threat landscape. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with our presenters by asking questions and discussing concerns related to cyber and insider threats. Our presenters will share effective strategies for asset protection and threat mitigation.
