This discussion-based, non-technical course is an introduction to cybersecurity that provides individuals, community leaders and first responders with information on how cyber attacks can impact, prevent and/or stop operations and emergency responses in a community. The Developing Cybersecurity Resiliency for Everyone course provides a cursory introduction to cybersecurity vulnerabilities, risks, threats and countermeasures and introduces actions communities can take to establish a cybersecurity program. It introduces the Community Cybersecurity Maturity Model (CCSMM) as a framework for understanding community cybersecurity and offers a brief introduction to low or no-cost approaches to securing a community against cybersecurity threats and attacks; setting the stage for further efforts in which a community can build a cybersecurity program.
