PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE 丨 07.16.2024

Cybersecurity is a paramount concern for modern facilities management, with organizations facing an increasing barrage of cyberattacks and breaches. To effectively safeguard against these threats, it's crucial for facility managers to be equipped with the right tools and resources.


In a recent interview with Maureen Roskoski, vice president of FEA and a Building Operating Management Facility Influencer, we delved into the available resources for cybersecurity in facilities management. One key takeaway is the importance of tailored training that aligns with facility managers' existing knowledge and expertise.


Specialized training is essential for facility managers to navigate the complexities of cybersecurity effectively. Fortunately, resources are readily available, including those provided by the General Services Administration (GSA). These resources offer valuable insights and guidance tailored specifically for facility managers, empowering them to bolster their cybersecurity defenses and protect their organizations against potential threats.


As a company focused on store decoration, mechanical and electrical design/engineering contracting, and facility maintenance, we understand the critical role that cybersecurity plays in safeguarding our clients' assets and operations. That's why we're committed to staying abreast of the latest developments in cybersecurity and leveraging available resources to enhance our capabilities in this area.


By staying informed and leveraging available resources, facility managers can take proactive steps to improve their cybersecurity posture and ensure the resilience of their facilities against evolving threats.
