SDAO Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercise
Kick off the Special Districts Association of Oregon (SDAO) Annual Conference with a free tabletop exercise presented by LBL Cybersecurity in partnership with the Oregon Cybersecurity Center of Excellence and the State’s Cyber Security Services Office. This engaging cybersecurity tabletop exercise is designed to strengthen your organization’s ability to respond to today’s evolving cyber threats effectively and collaboratively. Designed specifically for Special Districts, but applicable to all in public sector, the exercise features realistic, high-impact scenarios that reflect the financial, operational, and reputational risks districts face every day.
Participants will work through a fast-moving, interactive exercise that begins with a social engineering incident and escalates into cascading impacts across internal systems, partner agencies, and the public eye.
Lunch is included. All in public sector are welcome to attend by registering through the SDAO conference registration page. There will be an option on the second page of registration to choose our free pre-conference event. Registration for the full conference is not required.
