The Idaho Army National Guard (IDARNG), ITS, and the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) conducted a cyber assessment with Jefferson County. This was Jefferson County’s first cybersecurity assessment, allowing the county to validate security policies in place and find areas of improvement. During the week, the cyber assessment team generated threat actor telemetry within the production network allowing Jefferson County to identify visibility gaps and make real-time adjustments to improve procedures.
Events like this continue to provide excellent partnerships opportunities between military, state, and local governments to identify cyber infrastructure vulnerabilities, develop cyber competencies, and develop remediation priorities.
