Breached! Cybersecurity 101 for Federal Government CLE

With data security incidents and data breaches happening daily, it’s important for federal government employees to turn towards one reality—it’s NOT IF a breach or incident will occur —it’s WHEN. These incidents are forcing federal government agencies to address, define, and handle these challenges. As cloud technology and big-data analytics have become the norm, cybersecurity risks have increased and it is more important than ever to have both an avoidance and a response plan in place.

During this 60-minute CLE session, we will cover (1) the latest security threats in the news and what’s being done to address/remedy them, (2) explore current data breach laws, (3) the roles and responsibilities of federal government agencies, and (4) how to prepare a data breach avoidance plan as well as a data breach response plan.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
