RSAC Tech Talk - Cyber Hygiene by Trevor Parks and Emily Skahill
RSA Conference 2024 · Tech Talk
This talk, presented by Emily Scahill and Trevor Parks from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) Joint Cyber Defense Collaborative (JCDC), delves into the critical need for enhanced **cyber hygiene** within **high-risk communities**. Initiated in March of the previous year, the **High-Risk Communities Protection effort** aims to bolster the cyber defenses of civil society organizations, encompassing nonprofits, activists, human rights defenders, and journalists. These groups, due to the nature of their work and their frequently outspoken positions, are disproportionately targeted by **Advanced Persistent Threat (APT)** actors, making them highly vulnerable to sophisticated cyberattacks.
