Who is a member?
Our members are the local governments of Massachusetts and their elected and appointed leadership.
An MMA webinar on Oct. 15 will cover cybersecurity issues, including the MassCyberCenter’s Minimum Baseline of Cybersecurity for Municipalities.
The baseline was created to encourage municipalities and schools to improve their cybersecurity posture and resilience against cyberattacks, inspire collaboration, and engage with other cities and towns to strengthen cybersecurity resiliency.
The webinar will identify the most common threats facing municipalities and review the four goals of the baseline to provide guidance and resources to help implement a robust cybersecurity program. The four goals are: training employees, improving threat sharing, cyber incident response planning, and securing the technology environment.
Updates on state programs, including cybersecurity training and grants, will also be provided.
Speakers will include:
• MassCyberCenter Director John Petrozzelli
• MassCyberCenter Resiliency Program Manager Meg Speranza
• Susan Noyes, director of the Office of Municipal and School Technology
Online registration is available for the 75-minute webinar, which will begin at noon. Only MMA members may register. MMA members include elected officials and municipal employees from MMA member communities across the state. Media members are not permitted to attend.
