Cyber threats targeting Tribal gaming enterprises are growing more sophisticated - but they STILL target the most basic of cybersecurity defenses. In this session, we’ll bring real-world expertise from Native cybersecurity practitioners from the front lines of cyber defense and executive leadership to break down the essential controls, strategies, and decisions that are needed to protect tribal gaming operations. Drawing from hands-on experience from those who walk through the fire supporting casinos and tribal enterprises, this panel will translate complex cybersecurity concepts into practical, actionable guidance that leaders can apply immediately. Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of today’s threat landscape, foundational defensive measures, and recommendations on how to build resilient, risk-based security programs that safeguard operations, revenue, and trust.
