The Multitype Library Board is excited to support the Saskatchewan Libraries Pre-conference session It Can Happen to You: Cybersecurity Planning &Libraries.
The afternoon session will include real stories from libraries that have experienced cybersecurity breaches. The session will detail first-hand accounts of navigating real cybersecurity breaches. Discover what happened, how they responded, and what they learned along the way!
Learn how to get ahead of emerging threats and connect with colleagues who have been on the front lines.
Guest speakers Selinda Berg (UWindsor) and Lisa Radha Vohra (TPL) will share their perspectives and experiences, offering valuable insights and practical takeaways.
Scott Murray (SILS) will also join the speaker team for an engaging, interactive panel session, followed by a hands-on workshop where participants will begin developing their own cybersecurity plans. The session will provide you with practical advice on how to prepare your institution for a potential cyber-attack.
