Intelligence Driven Decisions: The Role of Analytics in Cyber Security

This event qualifies for 2 CPEs

President Obama has declared that the "cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation" and that "America's economic prosperity in the 21st century will depend on cybersecurity."

Federal employees are invited to join us for an interactive discussion on security of information systems, which is rapidly becoming one of the foremost focal points of the United States and other countries. Critical information infrastructures are at risk from persistent, well-resourced adversaries utilizing sophisticated technological and social attack methods against single organizations and entire industry sectors.

The rise of the interconnected digital world requires new paradigms for addressing numerous challenges, especially in information security. This new paradigm is paired with increased regulatory demands for robust cyber security monitoring and economic pressure to apply fewer financial resources in a more intelligent manner.

This government briefing will explore ways that agencies are taking action to meet goals to detect, decipher, and defend against cyber attacks, as FedInsider brings industry and government together to discuss technology, tools, and oversight techniques being utilized to protect the critical systems that support our way of life.
