Good Morning, Brooklyn: Wednesday, February 23, 2022
BROOKLYN HOME TO NEW CYBERCOMMAND CENTER: A Joint Security Operations Center is being created in Brooklyn that will serve as the nerve center for joint local, state and federal cyber efforts, including data collection, response efforts and information sharing, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Tuesday. A facet of a partnership launched with several state and cybersecurity leaders, including New York City Mayor Eric Adams, the JSOC is the nation’s first-of-its-kind cyber command center that will provide a statewide view of the cyber-threat landscape and improve coordination on threat intelligence and incident response.
Also in the partnership are Albany Mayor Kathy Sheehan, Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh, Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown, Rochester Mayor Malik Evans and Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano.
