Join a Community of Interest

You can participate as much or as little as you would like. Most COIs meet virtually on a monthly or quarterly basis and attendance at meetings is voluntary. Your COI might communicate through email channels more often and ask for feedback on topics of interest or draft guidance under development. Regardless, your involvement is voluntary and what you make of it.

Absolutely! Those with a general interest in cybersecurity, or who want to learn more, are encouraged to join our meetings and events. And let’s face it, cybersecurity is everyone’s job, regardless of where you sit in an organization. We believe the work we do at the NCCoE helps all levels of cybersecurity understanding, from the casual observer to the most advanced cyber technicians.
