From: US Chamber
Written by Ann M. Beauchesne
Many cybersecurity experts say that there are two types of businesses—those that have been hacked and know it, and those that have been hacked and don’t know it yet. As large businesses strengthen their cyber protections, small and medium-size ones are increasingly the victims of malicious actors.
On May 22 in Chicago, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce launched its national “roundtable” series to promote cybersecurity education and awareness of the Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity, which was capably developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the business community.
Leading partners included American Express and Splunk, the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, and The Latino Coalition. The Chamber is planning to hold at least three more roundtables with local and state chambers prior to the Chamber’s Third Annual Cybersecurity Summit on October 28.
