8:45 Welcome and Opening Remarks

10:30 Networking Break

12:15 Luncheon Break

With growing sophistication in cyber attacks, all levels of government require the ability to effectively detect and deter cyber intrusions and protect critical data. The key stakeholders are aware and understand the responsibility to guard against such incidents. However, the volume of attacks is growing and as a result, new vulnerabilities are being uncovered. During this interactive workshop, topics that will be covered include:

· Developing requirements to deliver your cyber security plan

· Identifying the most effective technology to compliment your cyberspace strategies

· Determining the “best in class” in a noisy, crowded solution market

Many “Cyber Experts” will say that no IT security professional has more than 10 years of experience due to the evolving nature of this challenge. Everyday new vulnerabilities are being assessed as the key stakeholders attempt to view potential fracture points through the eyes of the malicious actor. Identifying the talent, training the people, and ensuring continuous improvement in skill set continues to inhibit IT Security stakeholders at all levels of government. During this workshop, the NSA will deliver a step-by step-guide to:

· Find and onboard best employees talent

· Build training programs that will expedite skill development

· Ensure your people are continuing to improve so that they remain ahead of potential threats
