Protecting Communities: Human-Centric Security for Government



The public sector is under constant threat from cyber criminals who use advanced tactics such as phishing, ransomware, imposter emails and other methods to exploit employee vulnerabilities. Human error is typically the starting point of most attacks, and cyber criminals have become adept at using social engineering techniques to target individuals with highly persuasive, personalized messages.

 

That means it’s more important than ever to safeguard your employees against increasingly sophisticated attacks with a human-centric security strategy.

 

Join us Tuesday, March 19, at 10 a.m. Pacific/1 p.m. Eastern for a discussion with Proofpoint’s Ryan Witt that will cover new threat intelligence research that can help state and local agencies better understand today’s advanced attacks.

 

We will explore:

  • The prevalent cyberattacks experienced by the public sector
  • New research on where we have observed the threat landscape is the most active in state and local markets and where to prioritize your protection efforts
  • Which agencies and departments are most targeted
  • Best practices for a more robust cybersecurity posture
