In the face of increasing threats to the stability of the Internet and our other critical infrastructure, it's crucial for FIRST community members to know how to best build and leverage their personal networks to collectively respond to all types of incidents, especially those that seek to disrupt our supply chains and national critical infrastructure. In this presentation, attendees will learn how to make the most of their FIRST membership by building stronger connections with their community partners, creating strong trusted relationships that go deeper than simply being part of a shared workspace or a mailing list.
