Join us for an educational series designed to help California agencies strengthen cyber resilience across their environments.

Each session consists of approximately 15 minutes of focused content, followed by 30-45 minutes of optional Q&A and discussion, providing an opportunity for attendees to engage directly with subject matter experts.

AWS Cyber Resiliency and Backup for State of California Organizations 

Date: November 12, 2026

Time: 10am PT ; 1pm ET

A lot of State of California organizations have moved workloads to AWS, but moving to the cloud doesn’t automatically mean the environment is secure, easy to recover, or cost-efficient. 

We’ve seen organizations spending hundreds of thousands of dollars more than necessary each year on AWS backup costs simply because they’re still using legacy architectures that weren’t designed for the cloud. 

Recovery is another challenge. When something goes wrong, getting an AWS environment back up and running can take days or even weeks if the right recovery strategy isn’t already in place. 

In this webinar, we’ll keep it practical and talk about: 

• How to properly protect AWS workloads 
• How modern AWS backup architecture can help reduce cloud costs 
• How to recover data and workloads much faster 
• Common mistakes we see organizations making in AWS 

If you’re running AWS today, or planning to move more workloads there, this session is for you.  

M365 Data Protection and Governance for State of California  

Date: December 2, 2026

Time: 10:00am PT; 1:00pm ET

A lot of organizations rely on Microsoft 365 every day for email, files, Teams, and SharePoint. But there’s an important question that often gets overlooked:  

If a large amount of your Microsoft 365 data disappeared tomorrow, how quickly could you get it back?  

Microsoft does a great job keeping Microsoft 365 available but  keeping the service running and being able to recover your data are two different things. Microsoft itself explains that tools like version history and legal holds are not designed for large-scale recovery scenarios like ransomware.  

In this webinar, we’ll keep it simple and talk about:

• What Microsoft protects and what you are responsible for 
• Why Microsoft 365 backup is important 
• What happens if data is accidentally deleted or hit by ransomware 
• How to recover Microsoft 365 data quickly 
• What to look for when choosing a backup strategy  

Ransomware Recovery: What Happens After an Attack? 

Date: December 16, 2026

Time: 10:00am PT; 1:00pm ET

A lot of organizations have backups and a disaster recovery plan. But after a ransomware attack, there’s a bigger problem: 

What if your production environment itself can’t be trusted? Where do you recover?  

Cleaning and rebuilding a compromised environment can add significant downtime. A Cleanroom, also called an Isolated Recovery Environment (IRE), gives you a separate, secure place to recover clean systems, safely test your recovery, and even start running the business while your normal production environment is being remediated. 

In this webinar, we’ll keep it practical and talk about:

• Why backups alone aren’t a complete cyber recovery plan 
• How an IRE lets you test recovery before a real attack 
• How to safely recover when production is compromised 
• How an Isolate Recovery Environment can become a temporary recovery environment while production is rebuilt
