Four state government agencies and California State University, Sacramento, are teaming up to present a Cybersecurity Education Summit on Oct. 9.
The event will gather experts and leaders from government, industry and academia to spread awareness of cyberthreats and to "engage, inform, train and empower" Californians to avoid cyberthreats.
