NC Joint Cybersecurity Task Force (JCTF) Resource Page

Through the various components and partners of the JCTF, there are proactive resources available to State, Local and Tribal entities as well as critical infrastructure partners such as public-facing Internet Protocol monitoring, cyber hygiene assessments, education, training and outreach, liaison and information sharing to prevent and mitigate cascading impacts from cybersecurity incidents, as well as operational support response.  

The JCTF is authorized to provide incident response and recovery efforts on behalf of State, Local and Tribal entities and to public and private sector Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources (CIKR) entities. Generally, CIKR entities that can request assistance from the JCTF are State, local and tribal governments, as well as political subdivisions thereof, to include the Education Facilities Subsector (K-12 schools, institutions of higher education, and business and trade schools). 

If you believe you have been impacted by a cybersecurity incident, you are encouraged to use the Statewide Cybersecurity Incident Report Form, in accordance with NC General Statute §143B-1379. 

If you meet the criteria for JCTF support and would like to receive incident response support, please contact the 24-Hour Watch through the N.C. Department of Public Safety's Division of Emergency Management, at NCEOC@NCDPS.GOV or 919-733-3300.
