Librarians and Cybersecurity : What Role Do We Play?
Session Abstract
In today's world, it’s not a question of if your institution will be hit by a cyberattack, but when. Who's responsible for protecting your institution? Everyone, including the library. With higher education experiencing digital transformation and universities increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats, institutions must take proactive measures to mitigate the risks – and as stewards of access to campus networks, libraries are in a position to make that mitigation more effective.
