These pre-conference sessions, each comprised of two hours of interactive content, provide an unparalleled opportunity to explore cybersecurity and state laws in-depth. When registering, choose one session to attend on Sunday, July 21.
Cybersecurity Collective: Building a Cybersecurity Culture Together
Sunday, July 21, 1 p.m. – 3 p.m.
FREE
Cybersecurity can be a daunting challenge, especially for organizations that lack dedicated cybersecurity staff or rely on external resources. These organizations often feel isolated, with limited access to guidance, collaboration, or shared experiences.
The Cybersecurity Collective addresses this challenge by creating a supportive community of ACA members. Chaired by cybersecurity experts, the collective helps ACA members build and maintain a cybersecurity culture at no cost.
In this interactive session, we’ll demonstrate how the power of collective cybersecurity can benefit all ACA members through collaboration, information sharing, and a unified front.
Key Takeaways
- Three Steps to Plant and Grow Cybersecurity: Learn how the Collective can guide organizations with limited cybersecurity expertise to develop internal capabilities.
- Building Trust and Partnerships: Foster effective collaboration among ACA members and leverage the expertise of cybersecurity professionals.
- ACA Auditorium of Action: Gain insights from a panel of ACA members sharing their experiences with cybersecurity regulations, building a cybersecurity culture, and the value of the Collective.
- Cybersecurity “What-the-What”: Industry experts provide a concise and engaging update on collectors’ top cybersecurity concerns (dancing optional).
- Collective Action in Practice: Discover how to join, engage with, and contribute to the community.
Who Should Attend?
- Collection professionals of all levels
- IT managers and decision-makers
- Collections leaders concerned about cyber risk and developing internal cybersecurity expertise
- Anyone interested in the benefits of security collaboration
