Securing Public Utilities: How Small IT Teams Achieve 24x7x365 Endpoint Protection

Public utilities, water, power, transportation, and communications are the backbone of everyday life. Yet these critical services are increasingly under attack, with cyber threats rising by 50% in recent years. Vulnerable endpoints provide easy entry points for adversaries, with State, Local, and Education (SLED) organizations often lacking the budget and staff to monitor every device around the clock. 

CIS Managed Detection and Response™ (CIS MDR™) is purpose-built to address these issues. It offers 24x7x365 endpoint protection powered by threat intelligence tailored to U.S. State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) government organizations and our industry-leading 24x7x365 Center for Internet Security® (CIS®) Security Operations Center (SOC). 

In this webinar, we'll explore the unique cybersecurity challenges facing public utilities. You'll discover how you can use CIS MDR to strengthen your security posture by extending your team’s capabilities and delivering actionable insights. You'll also uncover how CIS provides holistic support to help the public utilities sector stay resilient against evolving threats.
