Confronting the Next Generation of Cyber Security Challenges and Opportunities
The Second Annual FedCyber.com Cyber Security Summit provides an ideal venue for our nation's most seasoned cyber security practitioners to discuss relevant and current issues of common concern. Members from all branches of government will be in attendance: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. In addition, a wide range of agencies in the executive branch will be represented; from across the DoD, to the Intelligence Community and Civilian Sectors. This promises to be a tremendous venue for sharing lessons learned and best practices across a wide range of organizations.
Held November 15, 2012 at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, DC. Matt Devost and Bob Gourley will moderate the event and facilitate dialogue designed to generate three conference papers to advance the state of practice in the federal cyber security domain.
This year the focus is on advancing the dialogue around three critical themes:
- Threat Intelligence, adversary characterization, and information sharing
- Cyber workforce challenges
- Emerging technologies that will change the cyber security landscape, including the latest Big Data approaches to Cyber Situational Awareness and means to address the emerging threats to mobile devices (including threats in a BYOD focused environment).
