May 21, 2024 • 8:30 AM
Join us at the home of the NFL’s Pittsburgh Steelers and get coached on winning plays for cybersecurity!
If you’re an executive in local schools or government, learning cybersecurity is a difficult but necessary game. Our briefing at Acrisure Stadium is designed for all audiences, and uses football analogies to make planning easy for K-12 and local government.
-
The Defensive Line: Get physical – if an adversary can touch it, they can compromise it.
-
The Linebacking Corps: Be ready to send resources where you need them.
-
Cornerbacks and Safeties: Always watch for the long-range attacks.
-
Film Study: Know what plays the other team runs.
​
The session begins with a virtual scout of the dark tools readily accessible by cyber hackers to breach your defenses. Next, we break open an amazing panel who will champion their top-performing plays. Then, we discuss possibilities to recruit or upskill your team. Lastly, you are invited to an exclusive Acrisure Stadium tour where you will get a firsthand view of the technology that scores an unforgettable gameday experience!
