Episode 69: How the NCSR Assessment Sows SLTT Cyber Maturity

Cybersecurity Where You Are

In episode 69 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-host Sean Atkinson is joined by Tyler Scarlotta, Manager of Member Programs at the Center for Internet Security (CIS). Together, they discuss how the Nationwide Cybersecurity Review (NCSR) helps U.S. State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) government organizations evaluate their cyber maturity. They begin by reviewing what the NCSR assessment program entails and identifying trends from previous years. They then explore the lessons learned by SLTTs through participating in the NCSR, the steps to getting involved with the program, as well as the resources from CIS and the Multi-State and Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (MS- and EI-ISACs) that a participant can use to strengthen their cyber maturity.
