[Podcast] Episode 2 of Let’s Be Civil is Live! | Cybersecurity Insights

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

In 2018, a ransomware attack took down the Colorado Department of Transportation's entire computer network.   In May of 2020, a vendor for the Texas Department of Transportation accidentally clicked on a remote access trojan that compromised their network through a vulnerability in Microsoft Office.   These events, along with the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack and similar incidents, are not isolated occurrences. They're the signs of an ongoing battle between our industry and an increasingly sophisticated, anonymous network of cyber threat actors that have taken aim at our nation's infrastructure.   In the latest episode of Let's Be Civil, we're joined by three cybersecurity experts to discuss how and why these attacks happen - and what we can do to prevent them. How do you fight against threats you can't see or even identify until it's potentially too late? What can agencies do to quickly recover their data in the event of an attack? What is the most essential cybersecurity best practice for any organization?  "Just like we plan for any other incident - we plan for weather events and power outages, hurricanes, tornadoes - we should plan for cyber outages."
