Emergency services cybersecurity threats, attacks, and mitigation

This video is the second video in a series that introduces students to the Emergency Services Critical Infrastructure sector. We conduct a quick review of emergency services and what it comprises, interdependencies among critical infrastructure sectors (emergency services, energy, communications, and water), potential threats, a cyber attack, TDoS (telephony denial of service attacks), and mitigation strategies.

The intended audiences for these videos are high school or community college students enrolled in IT or cybersecurity programs or courses.

This video includes topics that have been discussed in more detail in earlier videos. Links to other NCyTE videos that relate to the content of this video include:
