National Webcast Initiative
The US Department of Homeland Security's National Cyber Security Division and the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) have launched a joint partnership to develop a series of national webcasts which will examine critical and timely cyber security issues. Embracing the concept that security is everyone's responsibility, these webcasts are available to a broad audience to help raise awareness and knowledge levels.
The National Webcast Initiative is a collaborative effort between government and the private sector to help strengthen our Nation's cyber readiness and resilience. A number of participants have offered their services at no cost, to help develop and deliver the webcasts. Additional co-partners may be identified as the Initiative grows and this list of participants may change.
This initiative is also coordinated by the New York State Office of Cyber Security and Critical Infrastructure Coordination
and the New York State Forum
.
The National Webcast Initiative was launched in June 2004, with the first session -- Cyber Security: The Three Things You Should Have Done Yesterday and The Three Things You Should Do Today was conducted on June 22. The webcasts are designed to provide participants with quality information, in an interactive format, so that the attendees receive timely and practical advice that can be applied immediately.
Webcast sessions will be conducted on a regular basis, featuring a variety of timely topics. Please visit this site for upcoming events.
Please feel free to suggest topics for upcoming webcasts .
