Why You Should Attend This Symposium:
- The Cyber threat is one of the greatest challenges our nation currently faces. The US government is working vigorously to defend against these threats and successfully conduct defensive and offensive cyber operations. Due to the intricacy of cyberattacks, the US must remain engaged in the current fight and develop new capabilities to integrate cyber into a multi-domain battle to gain a tactical edge against our adversaries.
- This symposium will focus on policy, operations, and technology designed to defend critical networks and allow for the freedom of operation in the Cyber Domain. The event will also discuss critical infrastructure protection and the role of DHS and the commercial sector.
