EMERALD DOWN IV
Puget Sound Cyber Security Workshop
Cyber security is essential as we face one of the fastest growing threats to our national and personal security. With recent news of high profile security breaches and hacks, the growing dependence on cyber systems for running critical infrastructure, and the need to protect our personal and proprietary information, building partnerships for sharing information and integrating our cyber security with our physical security planning and business continuity is essential. Join us for a regional discussion of current cyber threats and common challenges with managing complex data and access.
