Bob Young on Nostr: How do you make a cybersecurity presentation about government requirements be ...
How do you make a cybersecurity presentation about government requirements be interesting? In this photo, you see me casting a spell on the attendees to keep their eyes open. ;-)
The secret to making an interesting presentation is to start by advertising it accurately. That way, the only people who bother to show up are people who are already interested in the topic. That’s half the battle right there – getting the right audience.
The next step is to provide useful information and actionable steps in a way that’s easy to understand and helps the listeners feel like they can successfully do the things that need to be done.
Assemble motivated attendees. Then, tell them:
What they need to know.
What to do.
How to do it.
(This photo is from the ITA Showcase on March 13, where my topic was “Meeting Cybersecurity Requirements for Federal Grants in Critical Infrastructure,” which as we all know, is a universally appealing topic).
