County governments face a growing array of cyber threats,
including ransomware and phishing, while managing pandemic-driven
changes in how employees collaborate and connect with citizens and
suppliers. The workshop will highlight content included in the
recently published Cyber Security Primer for Local Government
Leaders, created by NYSAC in partnership with other New York local
government and higher education organizations. The workshop seeks
to raise awareness of ongoing cyber security threats targeting New
York counties and to educate county leaders on these risks and
strategies to work more closely with their IT and security leaders
to manage cyber risks.
“The top priority for county governments is to serve and protect
their citizens and employees. To do that, everyone, especially
county leaders, needs to understand and take action to keep their
counties safe,” said Michael DePasquale, Chairman and CEO, BIO-key.
“Sponsoring this workshop is another example of our continued
commitment to helping government entities on their journey to
better cyber security.”
“New York counties and those across the country continue to
select BIO-key’s PortalGuard as their preferred IAM platform. Most
use PortalGuard’s flexible authentication options to add
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to their security stack, to
support cyber security compliance requirements without disrupting
their users’ workflows. BIO-key understands the needs of county
governments and offers solutions that are available at a fraction
of the cost of less-capable, mainstream MFA solutions, and can be
implemented in a cloud-based IDaaS model to control infrastructure
investments and exposure.”
