"NFL Teams Block & Tackle Cyberattacks in a Digital World"

The National Football league has more to contend with than the actual games on the field. The teams have experienced cyberattacks on their customers, players, arenas, and data. In today’s digital age, the companies are protecting their assets that control the game and connecting with their fans as well as handling everything from concession sales, stadium operations, loyalty programs, bio-metric check-ins at stadiums, and WI-FI in the stands. Fan information, real-time player data, video broadcast, and their brands all need to be protected. All the teams have information-technology and security groups that work year-round to keep the teams safe from cyberattacks. The teams and CISA conduct annual exercises to practice response to cyberattacks, but also put a lot of resources in every day to prevent attacks.
