December 2020 "Lunch and Learn"
2020-12-16 12:00 - 13:00 | Virtual via Zoom, MD
O365 Lunch and Learn Abstract: We’ll navigate through uncharted security territory by analyzing the attack lifecycle in the cloud and dissecting a real-world attack. The same technology that makes the cloud dynamic can have the opposite effect on an organization’s ability to implement detection and response in cloud environments. This includes the adding additional layer of preventative controls in addition to MFA, because it’s increasingly being bypassed in O365 as an example. Chris Morales, Head of Analytics with Vectra, will help us navigate through the uncharted security territory by analyzing the attack lifecycle in the cloud, reviewing the top cloud security threats, and dissecting a real-world cloud attack. Additionally, he’ll provide key takeaways for managing access, detection and response, and security operations.
This event is sponsored by Vectra.

Webinar on Human Trafficking
2021-02-17 09:00 - 12:00 | Riggs Alumni Center – University of Maryland
I just want to remind everyone that the Infragard Maryland Member’s Alliance (IMMA) will be hosting a webinar on human trafficking next Wednesday (February 17th) at 9:00 am. This eye-opening and informative webinar will explain how human trafficking persists in our communities and remains a largely invisible crime to most people, while at the same time shattering the lives of numerous victims. Our presenters will be a FBI Special Agent and a Task Force Officer from the Maryland State Police who are assigned to a FBI squad that investigates these crimes. In this presentation you will learn what indicators you should look for and who to notify if you suspect an incident of human trafficking. This information is especially useful for businesses in the service and hospitality industries, but it is also useful for everyone, as human trafficking can be occurring right in your own neighborhood. It seems like every week there are stories in the press about how alert citizens became suspicious that a person might be the victim of a human trafficking operation, notified the authorities and made a world of difference.
Please use the link below to register and I hope to see you online next week:

Securing The IT Supply Chain
2022-10-17 13:00 - 14:00 | Virtual
A modern IT supply chain, much like any other, is only as strong as its weakest link. With increased threats and growing cybersecurity challenges across the board, identifying these areas for improvement is no longer optional, but mandatory. Successful IT supply chain management requires equal parts visibility and collaboration with external entities to maximize an organization’s resources and growth, which means organizations need a streamlined approach to supply chain management to optimize their cybersecurity standards.
In this webcast, join GovExec and Okta as they explore topics in IT supply chain management, the cybersecurity behind it, and how new innovations in areas like CMMC, identity management, and zero trust architecture can benefit internal and external stakeholders seeking to become partners in the mission to deliver success.

From Mandate to Execution: Building a Modern Cybersecurity Strategy
2022-10-18 13:00 - 14:00 | Virtual
Cyber attacks are becoming more and more uninhibited and boundless, which means cybersecurity efforts have to evolve their complexities to be able to keep up.

The White House issued an Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity and mandates like M-21-21 to push government agencies towards zero trust, but this effort is a marathon, not a sprint. Crucial information needed for important security decisions can be costly and untimely.

Join Cribl on October 18th for From Mandate to Execution, a FREE virtual event! Hear from cybersecurity experts about the steps you and your agency can take when it comes to zero trust architecture and what it can do to bolster your security efforts.

Register to hear from:

Nick Marinos, Managing Director, Information Technology and Cybersecurity, GAO
Sean Connelly, Trusted Internet Connections Program Manager, CISA, Department of Homeland Security
Sean McIntyre, Director, ADE-1, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
