AFCEA Defensive Cyber Operations Symposium

The U.S. Defense Information Systems Agency’s new operational role in the cyber domain as network defender creates a formal relationship between DISA, U.S. Cyber Command and the command’s military service components. The goal is to improve security, but a successful strategy depends on a matrix of participating organizations adapting technical solutions and adopting enterprise management to improve efficiency, security and reliability.

Linked by a commitment to cybersecurity, this community of partners will gather at the 2016 Defensive Cyber Operations Symposium April 20-22, 2016 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington, D.C.

Our Continuing Education (CE) program is designed to support certifications related to U.S. Federal Government requirements. Several sessions at the AFCEA Defensive Cyber Operation Symposium  will be approved to meet CompTIA and/or GIAC continuing education requirements and may also support (ISC)2, National Contract Management Association (NCMA), Project Management Institute (PMI), GAGAS, and Defense Acquisition Workforce continuing education and/or certification maintenance requirements. Formal attendance documentation is a benefit for AFCEA members.
