General Meetings 

August General Meeting
Cybersecurity

August 4, 2022 @ 7 p.m. ET

Our presenter will be Rich S. Richard, from CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency)

Remote attendance via Zoom video conference (no meeting at Keller Williams).

CISA’s Cyber Essentials is a guide for leaders of small businesses and local government agencies to develop an actionable understanding of where to start implementing organizational cybersecurity practices.

Consistent with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and other standards and broken down into manageable and practical areas, the Cyber Essentials are the starting point to basic cyber resiliency and readiness.
