Allen recaps the recent Northern Chapter meeting at Raymond Vineyards in St. Helena, including a little wine-blending competition, and reflects on the value of getting local government IT professionals together to share common challenges, solutions, and lessons learned.\nAllen also recognizes the industry partners who helped make the Northern Chapter event possible — Tanium, Salesforce, ePlus, and SuccessMetrics — with a brief look at what each company brings to the public-sector technology community and why relationships with MISAC's industry partners matter.\nThe episode also highlights an important cybersecurity opportunity for California public agencies: statewide MS-ISAC enrollment sponsored by Cal OES, which provides eligible agencies with access to cybersecurity resources, including threat intelligence, incident response and forensic support, a 24/7 Security Operations Center, and the MS-ISAC MemberConnect community.\nAllen then previews the 2026 MISAC Annual Conference, September 27–30 in Monterey, and calls attention to the unofficial Tee Off with MISAC golf event at Laguna Seca Golf Ranch on September 26.\nThe episode closes with an audio adaptation of MISAC President Chris Skelly's Summer 2026 President's Message, including updates on AI, legislation, the new PTI partnership, upcoming MISAC education opportunities, and the importance of having a network of colleagues to learn from and lean on.\nChapters\n00:00 Opening Remarks and the Value of the MISAC Network\n01:03 Northern Chapter at Raymond Vineyards\n04:30 MISAC Industry Partner Spotlights\n08:03 Why MISAC's Industry Partners Matter\n09:42 Free MS-ISAC Enrollment Through Cal OES\n12:41 2026 MISAC Annual Conference in Monterey\n13:58 Tee Off with MISAC Golf Event\n15:41 Chris Skelly's Summer 2026 President's Message\n19:20 Closing Thoughts — The Strength of the MISAC Network\nVisit our...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/IAyx5-MX9BbFeqZTXIUX2yaam3DXmd8_X569y52AYQ4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zOWMz/YWUwYzgwYmUxMThj/OWE3OGU1YTE3MjQ4/Nzc4MC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
