Forum Membership and Email List Information
Through virtual events and email list, the Forum provides our members:
- a venue to exchange information, share ideas and best practices, resources, and knowledge;
- an ongoing opportunity to leverage the work done in other organizations to reduce possible duplication of effort; and
- access to a community and network of cybersecurity and privacy professionals across the U.S. federal, state, and local government and at higher education organizations handling federal information.
Virtual Events
Refer to the Events Page for upcoming Forum meetings and registration information.
Forum meetings are open to cybersecurity and privacy professionals from U.S. federal, state, and local government agencies, higher education organizations that handle federal information, and their contractor support.
If a contractor has a .gov, .mil, or .edu email address, self-registration is permitted. If a contractor does not have a .gov, .mil, or .edu email address, a government sponsor must confirm the request to attend a Forum meeting by contacting [email protected].
