Hazard Alert & Poster: Cybersecurity Threats to Critical Infrastructure

Protecting critical infrastructure from cybersecurity threats has become an essential component of organizational risk management. As cyberattacks continue to increase in frequency and sophistication, public entities of all sizes face potential risks that extend far beyond data breaches. A successful attack can disrupt essential services, compromise emergency response capabilities, damage infrastructure systems, and create significant public safety concerns. Proactive planning, employee awareness, and strong cybersecurity practices are key to reducing vulnerabilities and improving resilience against evolving threats.

Read the full Hazard Alert for more information on common cybersecurity risks, potential safety impacts, and recommended strategies to help protect critical infrastructure and essential public services.

The Cybersecurity Threats for Critical Infrastructure Safety Poster is also available for download here.

CIRSA members also have access to cybersecurity awareness training resources through KnowBe4, as well as free assessment and technical assistance opportunities available through the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

 

2022 Cybersecurity Training Seminars

CIRSA is excited to announce that we will be holding four half-day seminars covering basic cybersecurity precautions that are essential to protecting your organization in 2022 and beyond. Members will be provided information on:

  • How to implement, train, and manage these processes without breaking the bank, and using existing management skills they already possess for dealing with other HR, Legal and Administrative requirements
  • Hands-on exercises that illustrate the need for an Incident Response Plan, and how to create one, will be provided.
  • Step-by-step demonstrations of common security tools and precautions will be shown.
