Southern Ocean Fourth Annual Home Town Security Seminar an Informative Success

Our June 3 collaboration with the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell, New Jersey State Police, US Department of Homeland Security, and FEMA was held online with dozens in attendance.

This annual event brings together experts from Federal, State, County and local authorities to discuss with business and community leaders the importance of security and safety issues. This year the virtual program provided an opportunity for COVID19 cyber threats, scams and misinformation campaigns, FEMA strategies for preparing for the next threat, and discussion on the recent protests.

The morning opened with a welcome from the chamber CEO, Lori Pepenella and featured presentations from representatives of the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell, FEMA, NJ Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, who addressed questions from the audience.

The New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, works with the Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce to bring this information, tools, and resources that help strengthen the security and resilience of communities such as our Long Beach Island Region.
