"This timely event is the only one of it's kind to bring together strategic leaders from military, government and industry to discuss the challenges, opportunities and technological advancements in cyber security as organizations push to deliver safe network systems."

Cyber Security Summit, Chair
Mr. Geoff Fein, Lead Navy Reporter, Defense Daily

While it has often been said that the next big terrorist threat to the United States could come through the Internet, affecting defense, government and private sector networks, those systems are also vulnerable to criminal endeavors looking for monetary benefit from exploiting financial systems. Defense contractors, government agencies and the military all have a stake in safeguarding their networks from attack. Defending against and defeating cyber attacks will require the combined efforts of both the public and private sectors, working to develop new technologies and new approaches, for maintaining real-time protection of their individual networks.

Defense Daily's one-day program offers unique insights into what it's going to take for the private-public relationship to work more effectively in the cyber security arena. With four insightful panels and two noteworthy keynote addresses, you are sure to come away armed with the knowledge of how your organization can take advantage of the opportunities and technological developments being made in space.
