Overview

April 6

It’s a critical time for state and local agencies in Utah. Government organizations across the country have increasingly become the target of cyberattacks, and government organizations in Utah are no exception.

It’s time for Utah agencies to find a better strategy for cyber readiness and incident response. That means understanding what needs to be done before, during and after the inevitable occasion of a future cyberattack. And it means working to mitigate risk and minimize impact of breaches and ransomware.

To better understand the threats facing Utah state agencies, cities and counties, Government Technology is partnering with Insight for a one-hour interactive webcast focused on the Beehive State.

Join us April 6 for this special Utah-specific virtual event. As a participant in this webinar, you’ll learn job-critical information including:

How the quickly changing cyber threat landscape is impacting Utah governments
How cloud migration can aid in incident response, disaster recovery and business continuity
The strategies, strengths and skillsets you’ll need from your team — and your private-sector partners — to meet emerging challenges
