With cyber threats on the rise, now is the most critical time to protect systems, assets, data, and customers. The 2022 CyberShare Summit, an event hosted by CyberShare: The small broadband provider ISAC, brought together more than 170 security, IT and C-suite professionals to discuss and learn about the current threat and regulatory environment.

The summit was a collaborative effort of NTCA, ACA Connects, and the Rural Wireless Association. Attendees heard from cybersecurity experts and participated in critical conversations regarding budgeting and funding for cybersecurity needs, the upcoming NIST Framework update, developing incident response plans, how to find and retain talent, federal funding, cybersecurity supply chain requirements for broadband providers, and more. 

Organizations that join CyberShare receive several resources to stay abreast of and respond to cyber threats, including daily open-source reports, weekly technical reports, and incident-specific analytical reports. CyberShare participants also receive access to the SecurityScorecard (Cybersecurity Risk Ratings platform to help discover and address weaknesses in current defenses), an employee training video (to use for company-wide cybersecurity training), and where available, an insurance discount through Telcom Insurance Group (up to a 50% premium credit on their cyber policy).
