On Wednesday, August 26 (2:00 – 3:00 p.m.) WaterISAC will convene its next monthly Water Sector Cyber Threat Briefing. During this and the following two monthly briefings, U.S. Department of Homeland Security ICS-CERT will discuss the recommended practices in WaterISAC's recently released 10 Basic Cybersecurity Measures: Best Practices to Reduce Exploitable Weaknesses and Attacks. The top three recommendations from the document will be covered this month; ICS-CERT, which provided input into the guide, noted that implementation of these practices likely would have detected the issues, prevented the vulnerabilities, and averted the resulting impacts related to most cybersecurity incidents. The webcast will also cover ICS security incidents, emerging threats, new vulnerabilities in the water sector, situational awareness updates and opportunities for additional support and learning. Also presenting will be the private cybersecurity firm iSIGHT Partners. A WaterISAC Pro membership is required to register.
