Ransomware, phishing, and business email compromise still threaten institutional information and resources. Old and new exploits become weaponized and released daily. DDOS attacks interrupt business. New threats are constantly emerging. It's difficult to cut through the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) to understand current risks and develop appropriate risk management strategies. This session will provide you with a better understanding of the specific impacts of current cyberthreats around the world and as they relate to the research and the education sector.
