In 2020, ResearchSOC will present a series of webinars to provide how-to training for IT and cybersecurity professions who focus on the supporting open science and research projects. There is no charge to attend these webinars and our content has received some great reviews when we’ve presented it in other forums.
Our first webinar is January 30, 2020 at 3 PM EST, How to use security exercises to mature an information security program . In this webinar, attendees will learn to use a regular program of security exercises to probe their infrastructure, program, and incident response plans for weaknesses and opportunities, then use their home-court advantage to constantly, incrementally improve security posture rather than waiting for disaster to strike. Participants will also learn key elements in writing a table-top security exercise that can test their incident response plans with their home organization.
Registration is open on this page.
You can learn about our next two upcoming webinars on our webinar page. Stay tuned, as we have other webinars planner for later in the year as well.
We should also mention that our friends at Duke University who provide the STINGAR “honeypot” service to ResearchSOC are presenting a webinar STINGAR: Enabling Threat Intelligence Collection, Use, and Sharing in Higher Education as part of the EDUCAUSE webinar series. You can register for that presentation here.
Next week will resume our ongoing series on identity management with a discussion of the Shibboleth project at Internet2.
