Testimonials
“I think the Collaborative is the best source of information and resources I have access to. Plus, as a member, my staff gets access to all the information as well. The 6:00 am feeds are faster than MSISAC, USCERT and routinely more informative. The people you get access to are phenomenal and the leadership academy is great as well.” - Michael Dent, CISO, Fairfax County
“Bring Your Own Device has been a big challenge for us. We joined the Cybersecurity Collaborative and they immediately provided me a set of guidelines and a checklist for how to implement BYOD. The document was Best of Breed output from a task force that a group of Fortune 1000 security teams created. I was able to use this without needing to spend the time and money it would have taken to (re)create the wheel myself.” - Raghu Seshadri, Director of Information Technology, Jefferson County Public Schools
