NGA Cyber Security Day

The National Geospatial-Intelligence will be hosting the 2014 NGA Cyber Security Day at the NGA Headquarters in Springfield, VA. Featuring government and industry speakers, the focus will include such topics as continuous monitoring, cloud migration, software assurance, insider threat, wireless and mobility security, and emerging threats. 

NGA Strategy (from www.nga.mil):

The global security environment continues to evolve at an unprecedented rate. . . Our strategy takes into account NGA's need to be agile in supporting multiple mission areas, including support to military and intelligence operations, intelligence analysis, homeland defense, and humanitarian and disaster relief, and to retain its focus on DNI and USD(I) priorities, including counterterrorism, counterproliferation, cyber, anti-access/area denial, and global coverage. . . To stay on top of emerging issues, NGA will need to carefully balance investments, resources, risks, and priorities.

Emerging science and technology brings both challenges and opportunities. NGA's success will depend on how we embrace change, especially that which is enabled by advances in technology. As our adversaries adopt new denial and deception techniques, NGA must use innovative sources, tools, techniques, and processes to maintain our strategic advantage. NGA will be guided by our Vision, as expressed in our strategic goals and objectives, in taking GEOINT to the next level.

Strategic Goals:

• Provide online, on-demand access to our GEOINT knowledge.
• Broaden and deepen our analytic expertise to produce new value.
