TUES, MAY 25 — 1000 CST / 1600 BST
Cyber threats arise from numerous sources, including state actors, terrorist groups, criminals, hackers, business competitors, and even trusted insiders. In fact, it’s the threat from trusted insiders that may pose the most significant threats. Whether as a malicious act —the deliberate exfiltration of information or introduction of malware or other harmful code —or inadvertent actions by careless employees, the greatest threat to an organization’s information system is often on the inside.
On May 25, NCSC Insider Threat Directorate (ITD) will participate in a CyberWeek webinar to discuss the role of insider threat mitigation in cybersecurity. During this hour-long event, we’ll discuss the current risk environment, including heightened vulnerabilities created by the Global Pandemic; identify potential threats posed by trusted insiders and the adversaries who seek to co-opt or exploit them; and share best practices and resources available to mitigate the risk.

Once considered an esoteric domain of cybersecurity, Covid-19 has brought supply chain security to the dinner table conversation. The shortages revealed during the pandemic make it clear: Action must be taken to protect and safeguard us.

Marshall European Center for Security Studies. The conversation will cover the current policy landscape, which includes actions from all branches of government, as well as how thinking on risk has evolved over the past several years. Joyce will touch on the notion of shared risk and how to think through responsibilities for government, the private sector and the consumer.
