?The annual Wisconsin Governor?s Cybersecurity Summit is a collaboration forum perfect for learning, growing, and connecting with individuals interested in cybersecurity,? said Trina Zanow, Wisconsin?s chief information officer. ?Now more than ever, Wisconsin organizations need to stay ahead of threats and mitigate risk. This premier event will deep dive into trends, insights, and innovative strategies to help participants develop sound security programs.?
?The public and private sectors must work hand in hand to exchange threat intelligence, best practices, and lessons learned,? said Maj. Gen. Paul Knapp, Wisconsin?s adjutant general and the governor?s chief cybersecurity advisor. ?By establishing robust partnerships and information-sharing networks, we can enhance our collective defenses and respond swiftly to emerging threats.?
