SUCCESSFUL HOBBY EXERCISE

H-ISAC held the inaugural “Hobby” Exercise last month on February 12, 2020, held in Washington, DC.

Attendees from the public and private sector came together in a facilitated discussion to collaborate regarding
cybersecurity challenges within the US Healthcare and Public Health (HPH) sector. The exercise is named after
Oveta Culp Hobby, who became the first US Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare in 1953. The After Action
Report and Lessons Learned will be shared with the H-ISAC membership and our partners in the coming weeks.

Security intelligence tools help to provide visibility into an organization’s digital footprint, attack surface, and
connectivity to the malicious digital footprint threatening its organization. Data from DNS queries and
