US Secret Service Cybersecurity Awareness Day

This Cybersecurity event will be the first of its kind at the USSS. This event will be widely attended by the majority of personnel at the USSS HQ building.  Attendance is expected to be over 300 for the event.

* Protecting U.S. and World Leaders

All USSS personnel are invited to attend this event.
