Fortify Your Cyber Defenses with Proactive Security Services
MITIGATE CYBER RISKS
Comprehensive Cybersecurity Services
In today’s digital learning landscape, cyber threats continue to evolve, putting sensitive data and critical systems at risk. At Linn Benton Lincoln ESD, we provide a comprehensive suite of cybersecurity services to help districts proactively identify vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and quickly respond to incidents – ensuring a safe and secure tech environment.
Cyber Safety Essentials
Insurance Compliance Support
Insurance requires districts to meet rigorous cybersecurity standards annually. Our team gathers the latest requirements and assists in determining the optimal solutions to achieve full compliance and maintain coverage eligibility.
In-Depth Cyber Risk Assessments
We perform multi-phased security assessments across your infrastructure, examining external and internal vulnerabilities. Leveraging industry standards like NIST, our experts provide prioritized recommendations, risk scoring, technical reporting and strategic roadmaps to enhance your security posture systematically.
Customized Incident Response Planning
A prompt, coordinated response is crucial during cyber incidents. We collaborate with your team to develop a customized, documented incident response plan outlining procedures, roles and steps to detect, contain and recover from potential events.
Incident Response Coordination
In the event of a security breach, our team quickly mobilizes - serving as a liaison with authorities like DHS and the FBI while guiding your district through the entire response process with strategic counsel and comprehensive documentation support.
Continuous Vulnerability Monitoring
We partner with CISA to perform ongoing external vulnerability scans that probe your external network presence for accessible services and potential weaknesses. Identified vulnerabilities are analyzed, and mitigation guidance is provided.
Internal Network Security Testing
In addition to external monitoring, we conduct robust internal network scans across your IPv4 environment, rigorously testing for security gaps that could expose systems and data. Comprehensive reports highlight findings and recommend remediation tactics.
