Learn about network security from a "hacker's point of view"� from Jeff Atkinson, the founder and CEO of Zelvin Security, a local cybersecurity consulting agency. During the program, district leaders will learn about several forms of cybersecurity testing and the goals of each type of simulated attack. Zelvin Security's team of Ethical Hackers employ some of the same tools as an "attacker-in-the-wild"� during a simulated attack to identify how well a system tolerates cyber-attacks and the likely level of sophistication an attacker needs to successfully compromise the system. The Zelvin team then provides remediation strategies. Zelvin Security began providing Ethical Hacking services to large and small businesses in 2002, including financial institutions, manufacturing firms, healthcare providers and recently a K-12 Central New York School District.
