Cybersecurity for Port Authorities: Governance, Funding, and Accountability
Port authorities operate within a complex governance environment involving public accountability, multiple tenants, and critical infrastructure responsibilities. Cybersecurity oversight in this context extends beyond technical controls to questions of governance, funding, and executive accountability.
This webinar addresses cybersecurity as an enterprise governance issue for port authorities. It explores how leadership teams can structure oversight, define roles, and secure funding for cybersecurity initiatives while balancing regulatory, operational, and political realities.
The session also examines how port authorities manage cyber risk across tenants and third-party operators, and how they can demonstrate due diligence to regulators, insurers, and the public.
"For port authorities, cybersecurity isn’t just an IT responsibility: it’s a governance and operational risk issue. Leadership needs to know who owns the risk, where the gaps are, and how to fund the work that actually reduces exposure. This session is about turning those responsibilities into a practical, defensible cybersecurity program.”
