Hosted by the NAAG Internet Safety/Cyber Privacy and Security Committee and National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO)

The increased frequency and scale of recent ransomware attacks on critical infrastructure and private networks has raised serious concerns and questions about the cyber vulnerabilities of our nation’s public and private sector networks, particularly critical infrastructure. This webinar will provide an update on the state of state cybersecurity, including state critical assets generally, and government networks. Speakers will discuss some of the common themes and trends in recent ransomware attacks and other cyber disruptions more broadly, highlight additional cyberthreats on the horizon, and recommend guidance to attorney general offices to harden systems and implement critical cybersecurity practices. Speakers will also provide their views on ways attorney general offices can help enhance public and private sector cybersecurity more broadly.

Welcome:

Speakers:

  • Amanda Crawford, Executive Director, Texas Department of Information Resources; State of Texas Chief Information Officer; Former Deputy Attorney General for Administration and General Counsel, Texas Attorney General’s Office
  • Doug Robinson, Executive Director, National Association of State Chief Information Officers
