Security Awareness Month

Regional Security Workshops

Join MOREnet Security in September for a regional security workshop at a location near you!

In conjunction with our Security Awareness Month activities scheduled during October, MOREnet Security is planning five regional security "lunch and learn" workshops focused on Incident Response (what you need to do when you receive a security complaint from us), Security policy development (why they’re important and how to get started) and Security Awareness (things you can do to promote security awareness in your organization).

The sessions will run from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will include an informal presentation on Incident Response, an overview on security policy development – with handouts and worksheets, and an overview of some strategies and useful resources you can use to promote security awareness. We’ll finish up with some time for discussion and questions. (These workshops will also be a great opportunity to network with tech people from organizations in your area.) We'll be distributing handouts and other materials for you to take home and will also point out current security trends and threats you need to be aware of.

The sessions will be held during the last week of September at the following locations.

Monday, Sept. 24, Southwest Region
Missouri State University
Springfield, Mo.

Tuesday, Sept. 25, Southeast Region
Southern TeleCenter
Portageville, Mo.

Wednesday, Sept. 26, Northwest Region
Daviess County Library
Gallatin, Mo.

Thursday, Sept. 27, Northeast Region
Bowling Green R-1
Bowling Green, Mo.

Friday, Sept. 28, Central Region
Lincoln University

The only thing participants need to bring is their lunch. We’ll furnish the rest. (We’ll even bring cookies for dessert!)
