About this event

According to the 2022 “X-Force Threat Intelligence Index” by IBM Security, no industry is more targeted by cyber attackers than manufacturing. Half of these attacks are aimed at small businesses and the cost of the average data breach for a U.S. company has climbed to $4.24 million in 2021.* To combat these threats, federal agencies work together to mitigate the risks and protect this critical infrastructure and economic driver.

The FBI, in partnership with the Cyber Center of Excellence (CCOE) and California Manufacturing Technology Consulting (CMTC) invites you to participate in an executive-level briefing on cybersecurity, specifically tailored to the manufacturing industry.

Please join the FBI’s special agents and industry operators for an exclusive briefing on:

  • Specific domain threats that might impact your business and resources available to help protect against those threats.
  • Counterintelligence threats and vulnerabilities currently targeted by nation states and details regarding their resources, methods and tactics.
  • Insights from industry operators about best practices and mitigation strategies.

When: Tuesday, August 16, 2022, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. PST
