Re: Top 3 "hot topics" for CYBERSECURITY

these are my top two

1. Protecting against Ransomware (or rather, are we truly protected, which
includes having cyberinsurance)
2. Preparing for NIST 800-171 to be required

and can we do the above without extra expense? (i.e., is security a
bottomless pit?)

Hi everyone,

We are embarking on our second Cybersecurity Assessment and the
Finance/Risk Committee of the board is asking what other universities
think are the "hot topics" for cybersecurity in Universities.  If you
can send those to me, I would be grateful so we can make sure we a)
report back to the Board of Trustees what I found out from all of you,
and b) that we include this in our upcoming Cybersecurity Assessment.

Thank you.
