Our Growing Cyber World
The United States, the State of Missouri, and the Greater Springfield Region relies heavily on the Internet and the systems and data of cyberspace for a wide range of critical services. This reliance leaves all of us – individuals, militaries, businesses, schools, and governments – vulnerable in the face of a real and dangerous cyber threat. As we have seen, today state and non-state actors plan to conduct disruptive and destructive cyber attacks on the networks of our critical infrastructure and steal U.S. intellectual property to undercut our technological and military advantage.
It is our work at MCCoE to help train the right people and get them in the right positions to protect our partner members from cyber threat and vulnerability.
