Active Clinic
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
The MIT Cybersecurity Clinic works with cities and towns, particularly in New England, to help them reduce their vulnerability to cyberattacks. Its approach is to work directly with public agencies or elected officials to assess their vulnerabilities and suggest low-cost improvements they can make. The clinic believes that having an assessment of the status-quo is the first step in figuring out a plan of action that will prevent unwanted incidents. Teams from the clinic typically work with public agency clients for two months to gather and analyze relevant information. There is no cost for these services.
