Cybersecurity: An Emerging Risk That has Arrived Date: Thursday, April 23, 2020 Time: Noon Location: Go To Webinar Details: Even in this time of so cial distancing and COVID-19, cybersecurity remains a credit risk. And, now that many of us in the NFMA are working from home, new risks have arisen – Zoom-bombing, anyone? In 2019, the number, types and cost of attacks have risen greatly. Throughout the municipal sector, bond issuers have experienc ed, ransomware, distributed denial of service attacks, business email compr omise (BEC) and even deep fake scams. One mayor under attack offered $400,0 00 as the ‘going rate’ for ransomware. In a coordinated attack, 23 Texas mu nicipalities were simultaneously shut down. And BEC attacks in late 2019 we re getting $2 million an attack from a number of institutions. The rating a gencies have begun to change ratings citing cyber breeches as a contributin g cause. Please join these panelists in a lively discussion on the evolving sophistication of cybercriminals; the regulatory and market needs for disc losure; lessons learned from attack experiences; the municipal advisors tak e on preparation and notification; and what the rating agencies are asking in management meetings.
