Volunteers Sought for New NG9-1-1 Security Working Group Initiative
NENA currently supports an NG9-1-1 Security (NGSEC) Working Group (WG). This group has delivered several documents defining how to protect NG9-1-1 Core Services (NGCS) and PSAPs from malicious and non-malicious attacks. Those efforts have proven useful in early NG9-1-1 deployments.
The next efforts of this Working Group will include documenting "Cybersecurity Playbooks" for various levels of 9-1-1/public safety participants, identifying best practices, and supporting training and education.
NENA welcomes interested members to participate in the NG9-1-1 Security Working Group. Participation is open to NENA members who have a strong interest in or experience in this issue, and we encourage members from both technical and operational perspectives. We also welcome NENA members who currently serve other NENA Working Groups such as i3 architecture, ESInet design, and PSAP ops.
