The agency has a collaborative relationship with NYPD for cybersecurity threat intelligence sharing.
- This collaboration extends beyond NYPD to include the federal sector and private entities.
- The goal is to share technical indicators about potential threats.
- This helps protect other municipalities, agencies and private sector from ongoing cyber threats.
- The threat intelligence sharing is omnipresent, spanning law enforcement, private sector and federal entities.
- If the agency sees something, it alerts others to further protection across sectors.

Can you talk about the agency's cooperation with NYPD or lack thereof when it comes to assessing the cybersecurity of city agencies and the data they hold?

So we have a collaborative relationship with NYPD.
1:41:42
If you're speaking more broadly to cybersecurity threats, our partnerships with law enforcement doesn't stop at NYPD.

It could also involve the federal sector to make sure that they have insight into potential technical indicators that are available to make sure that other municipalities, other government agencies, other private sector entities aren't impacted by those same ongoing threats.
1:42:11
And so when I reference cyber threat intelligence sharing.
1:42:14
Mhmm.
1:42:15
That's specifically what I'm referencing.
1:42:17
And so that collaboration is is omnipresent, and that's not just for law enforcement, that's for private sector or federal entities.
1:42:25
Right?
1:42:25
Again, if we're seeing something, we're saying something about it to help in furtherance of the protection of those other sector entities.
