U.S. Department of Commerce Cybersecurity Awareness Day

For the past 40 years, the Federal Business Council has produced thousands of symposiums, expositions, training forums, and conferences, both on-site and off, for the Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, and civilian agencies. 2016 stands to improve upon our schedule, with over 100 events planned.

Join us on August 24, 2017 for the annual U.S. Department of Commerce Cybersecurity Awareness Day!

On August 24, 2017, the Department of Commerce headquarters is planning the Cybersecurity Awareness Day event which will host guest speakers from throughout the Cybersecurity community.  The 2016 Cybersecurity Awareness Day and Expo will feature timely, topical, and thought-provoking presentations, bringing together cybersecurity workforce, training, and educational leaders from academia, business, and government for one day of focused discussions.  In light of current events involving unauthorized disclosures, sensitive and/or classified information leaks, and breaches of personally identifiable information in cyberspace, it is imperative that sound practices are incorporated.  The agenda will include speakers from Industry and Government.  The attendance is expected to be comparable to past events which had approximately 300 participants. 

Attendee Information: This event will attract a broad audience throughout Commerce and surrounding agencies. Expect over 300 attendees including personnel with titles such as: Security Specialist, Telecom Analyst, Program/Project Manager, Engineer, and IT Specialist. FBC will work with the OCIO to promote the event to all DoC HQ personnel, particularly those specializing in secure computing and related fields.
