This workshop will be instructed by the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). The goal of the workshop is to provide attendees with tangible, useful take-away information on how to manage cybersecurity incidents effectively and, ultimately, achieve operational resilience.
