In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, the mining and metals industry faces significant cyber threats. MM-ISAC plays a crucial role in addressing these challenges by providing essential resources and support to enhance the industry’s cyber security posture. Our mission is to improve the cyber resiliency of mining and metals companies, preventing incidents impacting safety, environmental sustainability, or operational productivity.

They have evolved into a central point of trust – collecting, analyzing, and disseminating actionable intelligence for their members in near-real time. Threat intelligence sharing enables community members to defend themselves based upon the threats that federal governments and other peer organizations detect and share.
