There were more than 2,300 ransomware attacks against all levels of government, healthcare facilities, and schools and higher education institutions in 2020, and the attacks have continued this year. Yet state, local, and education (SLED) organizations are ill-equipped to respond to such attacks, lacking the resources and capabilities to defend against or respond to them.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has established StopRansomware.gov as its official one-stop website for SLED entities to find resources to fight this threat, including a self-assessment tool to determine their level of vulnerability.
Join us to hear thought leaders from government and industry discuss the magnitude of the threat and ways that SLED organizations can better prepare to defend themselves from ransomware attacks.
