HSTI Live - Cyber Security

The Homeland Security Training Institute (HSTI) at College of DuPage is focused on education for law enforcement, fire science, first responders and corporate security personnel in the area of homeland security. Through a series of courses in program models such as law enforcement, disaster preparedness, counterterrorism, intelligence, emergency response, NIMS/NRF/ICS, and private sector security, the HSTI continues to develop certification programs for working professionals.

We all know cybersecurity is an ongoing threat and one that could bring us all to our knees if institutions, our companies, or we become a victim.  Some individuals know the threats but do not know exactly what, when, or how to protect themselves. Other professions are dealing with cyber threats or preparing for them on a daily basis and could benefit from hearing first hand from leaders in the industry as they share case studies and best practices.  On Friday, April 27th, we will have four subject matter experts put it all in perspective by explaining it in simple terms. They will discuss the numerous challenges it poses to law enforcement, provide case studies, discuss cyber resiliency, and summarize the international cybersecurity threat landscape by reviewing the findings from the Microsoft Intelligence Report, Volume 23, which was released to the public on March 15, 2018. We will look at how Microsoft assisted in the takedown of the Gamarue botnet, discuss what organizations can do to avoid being an "easy mark" and provide an update on the latest attack trends and defenses.    
Helping your organization protect itself from Cyber Security threats can seem daunting for those not immersed in it every day. E-crime actors, nation states and cyber activists use advanced tools and tradecraft to violate organization’s cyber assets every day across the world using tools like Ransomware and other malicious software. They hide in the shadows of the dark web where they trade in companies and individual’s intellectual property, personal information and secrets. This session will dive below the surface of the dark web and explore how cyber criminals succeed and some of the actions you can take to defend against them.
This event is free and is funded by a Resource for Excellence Grant provided by the College of DuPage Foundation.  Participants can attend the event live at the College of DuPage campus in Glen Ellyn, IL at the SSG Robert Miller Homeland Security Education Center or view the webinar online.  Seats in the Homeland Security Education Center are limited for this workshop, so if you plan on attending, register early. Comments and questions can be emailed in during the broadcast, so that those that are watching remotely can play an interactive role in the workshop.
