Past event: Cyber Security for Defense Conference

The Faceless Enemy...

The duty of the United States Military is to defend our nation from outsider threats and win our wars. What used to be taking up weapons and artilleries against our opponents has now shifted to technological warfare. Even though our technology advancements have improved defense capabilities and readiness, they have also introduced new types of threat. Our battlegrounds are now both tangible and intangible zones.
