Foundational Safeguards: Tips and Tricks for Building Your Cybersecurity Foundation

Blueprint for Ransomware Defense Webinar Series | Phyllis Lee, Aaron McIntosh, Davis Hake, Ken Jenkins

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Foundational Safeguards are the building blocks that are necessary to establish an enterprise’s cyber security program. They also enable the implementation of Actionable Safeguards. To ease viewers into implementation of the Blueprint, this first session of a 5-part series will focus on the foundational Safeguards that are preventative measures to block a ransomware attack.

On October 25, 2022, Phyllis Lee (CIS), Aaron McIntosh (ActZero), Davis Hake (Resilience), and Ken Jenkins (SecurityScorecard) discussed the set of practices an enterprise must implement in order to effectively understand their environment, their users and their vulnerabilities and how to level up their protections.
