Cyber threats are rising for small and mid-sized broadband providers as BEAD funding accelerates network growth. The edge—where ISP networks meet subscriber devices—remains a prime target, but not the only hazard, as internal risks are just as dangerous, if not more probable. Misconfigured firewalls, unsecured file shares, and compromised workstations can all expose sensitive customer and business data.
In this webinar, experts from Zirrus One, America’s Communications Association (ACA Connects), Socket Fiber, Cysurance, and Malwarebytes will share practical strategies to secure both the edge and internal systems. Learn how assessments, managed services, endpoint protection, and warranty-backed insurance models can help safeguard your network, customer data, and BEAD funding eligibility—without overextending resources.
This webinar is open to ACAC Operator and Associate Members.

Nathan Vineyard – CTO, Zirrus One
Larry Eby – COO, Socket Fiber / Ideatek
Kirsten Bay – CEO, Cysurance
