Managing Cyber Risks: Exploring Cybersecurity as a Managed Service

As cybersecurity threats have become more prevalent and more harmful in recent years – and as the threat landscape itself has become exponentially more dispersed and harder to secure – one truth has become increasingly evident: State and local governments can’t handle this on their own.

Outside of a few large states and a small handful of big cities, the vast majority of governments lack the staff, funding and expertise it takes to keep up with the quickly evolving demands of securing networks, protecting data and maintaining constituent trust in government IT.

Enter cybersecurity as a managed service. As governments realize they can’t manage their entire security portfolio in-house, it’s important to consider how to best leverage the expertise and resources of the private sector.

But in what cases does cybersecurity-as-a-service make sense? When is it a bad idea? Who’s liable when a breach occurs? What questions should you ask before partnering with a cybersecurity service provider?

Join us for this webinar conversation with public IT leaders on the ins and outs of adopting a managed service model for cybersecurity.
