For the third year, the REN-ISAC’s Blended Threat Workshop Series provided an opportunity for incident response professionals to confront a complex threat. The 2021 scenario focused on an on-campus ransomware attack that interrupted both IT systems and physical facilities.
To pass on what we learned, we are releasing the 2021 REN-ISAC Blended Threat Workshop Series Final Findings Report. Because of the unique enterprise approach to risk management, this report gives readers access to expert knowledge from a variety of functional offices and a broad selection of institutions in Australia, Canada, and the U.S.
The full report contains practical insight into the modern threat landscape from the diverse, expert knowledge of workshop participants. You will find:
- A full explanation and lesson plan for this year’s workshop series
- A list of best practices, areas of improvement, and challenges that arose from real-world experiences
- Actionable suggestions for improving your institution’s security posture
In addition to the full report, we also created the Final Findings Brief, a two-page document highlighting the strongest best practices discovered during the 2021 series.
These documents are TLP: WHITE so feel free to share them with all members of your organization.
