Chemical Security Summit

FYI from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

The Chemical Security Summit, hosted by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in collaboration with the Chemical Sector Coordinating Council (SCC), will be held virtually this year as a series of seminars on Dec. 1, 8, and 15. The seminars will be hosted on Microsoft Teams Live and will feature important chemical security information for industry organizations, facility owners and operators, government officials, first responders, and law enforcement.

The Chemical Security Summit provides an opportunity for chemical representatives across the chemical and interconnected sectors, including energy, communications, transportation, and water, to learn, share perspectives, and engage in dialogue. Securing chemicals in an evolving threat environment requires cross collaboration between facility owners and operators, industry, law enforcement, community members, and all levels of government. Sessions will discuss and share the latest in chemical security best practices. Each week will focus on a different theme.

• Week 1 — Wednesday, Dec. 1: Chemical Threats and Countermeasures.

• Week 2 — Wednesday, Dec. 8: Cyber Threats and Emerging Trends.

• Week 3 — Wednesday, Dec. 15: Chemical Security Planning and Preparedness.
  

The virtual 2021 Chemical Security Summit is free and open to the public, but registration is required by Nov. 30, 2021. For more information and to register, see the preliminary agenda and visit CISA’s Chemical Security Summit registration page."
