Today’s cyber threat is multifaceted and ever-evolving. All utilities and municipalities must defend against criminals stealing information and extorting them for financial gain as well as nation states or terrorist groups seeking to sabotage information systems that operate critical infrastructure.  Community-owned utilities and city governments are targets of ransomware and other cyber-attacks at an alarming rate. Cyber criminals are leveraging the COVID-19 emergency by sending out “phishing” attacks that lure your employees to click on malicious links or files.

To avoid the operational, financial, and reputation harm of a cyber attack, you should access today’s best cybersecurity expertise. Yet your staff resources may be limited while external resources are expensive or not ideally suited for the typical community-owned utility.

Hometown Connections is providing comprehensive cybersecurity services designed specifically for community-owned utilities. We also work on cybersecurity challenges in close coordination with the American Public Power Association.

The Hometown Connections Cybersecurity Program offers you a comprehensive and affordable collection of solutions and a growing network of national vendors and regional field personnel able to serve as your single resource for cybersecurity services.

We provide the budget-friendly cyber services and the “boots on the ground” that you need.
