Right Systems, Inc. is excited to announce that we will be participating as a Knowledge Sponsor with Sophos, our trusted security partner, at the Oregon Association of Government Information Technology Management (OAGITM) conference on September 24-27, 2024. Together with Sophos, we will present on strategies to combat active adversaries and empower SLTTs to defend against ransomware and nation-states.

Over two-thirds of state and local government organizations were hit by ransomware last year, demonstrating adversaries’ ability to execute attacks at scale consistently. Ransomware is arguably the biggest cyber risk facing these organizations today. At the same time, hiring, training, and retaining skilled cybersecurity analysts has become harder than ever.

Sophos recognizes the resource constraints unique to SLG organizations and aims to make adequate security attainable for all entities. This presentation will walk through a roadmap for implementing defense in depth using common security products and procedures.

We are excited to meet with you and discuss IT in depth to discover innovative solutions for your organization’s unique needs.
