Defending Internet Accessible Systems (IR104)

CISA is proud to offer the cybersecurity awareness webinar, Defending Internet Accessible Systems (IR104), on Thursday, August 24, 2023, from 11 a.m. to noon EDT.  We are excited to share this information with stakeholders across the federal enterprise and nationally.

This awareness webinar is designed for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Internet accessible systems have become the backbone of modern business and communication infrastructure, from smartphones to web applications such as Outlook to the explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). Each of these systems, applications, and devices, however, can be targeted by threat actors and used to conduct malicious activity if left unsecured—worse, improperly configured and ill-maintained systems can leave vulnerabilities and sensitive information open to exploit.

This webinar includes the following information and more:

• Common attacks and vulnerabilities: Understand common vulnerabilities of internet accessible systems, how they are exploited by threat actors, and how to mitigate them to prevent attacks from succeeding.
• CISA guidance: Learn key guidance, resources, and best practices to address vulnerabilities and prepare effective incident response and recovery.
• Case studies: Examine the methods and impacts of real-life cyber-attacks, and how the targets responded and recovered.
• Knowledge check: Knowledge check questions will be asked throughout the course to reinforce key concepts and important takeaways.
