FCC Announces May Cybersecurity Workshops
Events Targeted to Broadcasters and Telecommunications Carriers to Address Cybersecurity Risks
  
WASHINGTON, April 7, 2026—The Federal Communications Commission today announced that it will host two cybersecurity workshops, led by its Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau.  The first workshop targeted to broadcasters will be held on May 14, 2026 and the second workshop for telecommunications carriers will be held on May 15, 2026.  Both workshops will feature speakers from the FCC, federal partners, and industry experts.

Panelists and presenters will offer practical guidance for leaders, engineers, and executives—particularly at small- and medium-sized companies—to strengthen cybersecurity and improve incident response across the communications sector.
