Recent compromises of municipal water systems, including attacks targeting internet-connected programmable logic controllers and remote cellular modems, have highlighted the evolving cyberthreat landscape facing state and local utilities. Similar risks extend across operational technology environments supporting water, power and other essential public services.
Protecting these systems requires more than securing individual devices or networks. A defense-in-depth approach can help utilities control interactions across converged IT and operational technology environments, limit lateral movement and prevent a compromise in one system from spreading to other mission-critical technology.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify Utility Infrastructure Risks: Examine common attack vectors and lateral movement paths across water, power and related operational technology environments.
- Strengthen IT/OT Defenses: Explore ways to map dependencies, improve visibility and apply OT-safe microsegmentation and Zero Trust controls to sensitive systems.
- Improve Resilience and Compliance: Learn how automated containment can help maintain operations during an incident while supporting alignment with federal cybersecurity guidance and performance goals.
Canadian municipalities are rolling out digital portals faster than ever, from online property tax payments to transit apps and utility dashboards. But as municipal IT environments expand, attackers are finding a sneaky backdoor: APIs. If your team is facing API security threats for the first time, legacy firewalls won't be enough to protect your infrastructure. During this webinar, we’ll skip the dense technical jargon and walk you through:
Register today to learn how to fight back, lock down vulnerable endpoints and keep municipal services running smoothly without headache. |

There is a natural tension between preparing for worst-case scenarios and avoiding unnecessary alarm. CISA promotes joint preparedness across cyber and emergency management communities; you can help shift the focus from recovery to restoring public and stakeholder confidence when systems are back online.
Join us as thought leaders from government and the private sector discuss the big picture – that preparing for a cyber attack at a National Special Security Event, responding to that attack, and working to restore confidence – and answer your questions. As modern airports integrate critical Operational Technology (OT) – from baggage handling and fueling to lighting systems – with traditional IT networks, the legacy concept of the “air gap” as protection has vanished.
High-profile incidents at major hubs like SeaTac and Heathrow highlight how cyberattacks attacks lead to large-scale disruptions of physical operations. Compounding these operational threats, aviation leaders face stringent regulatory pressure to meet TSA Security Directives (SD 1542-23-01), CIRCIA 72-hour incident reporting windows, and NIST SP 800-82 standards.
Learning Objectives:
- Discover how microsegmentation neutralizes lateral movement and isolates administrative IT from safety-critical OT environments to prevent ransomware and phishing attacks from escalating into airport-wide outages
- Learn strategies to mitigate third-party and supply chain risks, secure vendor API connections and shared platforms, to contain breaches originating from airline partners, concessionaires, or third-party service providers
- Understand how to streamline regulatory compliance by aligning your network architecture with TSA SD 1542-23-01 mandates and building the visibility needed to satisfy CIRCIA and NIST reporting requirements
