| 9:00 am - 10:20 am | Session 1: "Hackers, Crackers, Botnets, Malware and Web2.0, oh my!" Patrick Gray Senior Security Officer Cisco The Internet threat landscape has shifted. What used to be a playground for hackers, crackers and script kiddies, is now a borderless abyss of organized crime fueled by financial gain. Cisco Systems' Patrick Gray, a twenty-year veteran of the FBI, will explore the current threat landscape by highlighting the newest cyber criminals and examining the latest tactics employed by these predators. Gray will address how spammers, phishers, worm writers and hackers interact with this new crime element utilizing Web 2.0 technologies and how we can prepare our infrastructures to stave off these relentless attacks and protect our critical business assets. Additionally, Gray will touch on chatter in the underground and threats to our critical infrastructures including government and military targets. |

| 10:40 am - 12:00 pm | Session 2: "Software Security Street Fighting Style" Johannes Ullrich, Ph.D. Chief Research Officer SANS Institute It is tough to be a developer. As a developer, you have countless opportunities to make mistakes. You mess up once, and you lose. On the other hand, the attacker has to find only a single vulnerability to get fame and fortune. The only way to beat the attacker is simple and repeatable defensive techniques that work every time. Similar to a street fight, simple and repeatable wins over complex and elaborate. This talk will outline how some of these principles apply to software security and security in general. |

| 1:30 pm - 2:50 pm | Session 3: "Cyber Security: What's the Big Deal?" Rob Pate Chief Security Officer at Renesys and former Deputy Director of Outreach and Awareness at the National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) at the Department of Homeland Security, as well as the Director of Focused Operations with the United States Computer Incident Readiness Team (US-CERT) Many people hear about Cybersecurity and dont clearly understand why it matters or how it relates to their lives. Its not uncommon for Cybersecurity personnel may work diligently to protect the systems for an organization, yet fail to make the connection to their lives outside the workplace. The interconnectedness between information systems and our lives is growing exponentially as are the Cybersecurity challenges. The threats, vulnerabilities, and exposures that we face are dynamically changing due to the sophisticated nature of todays organized attackers. The objective of the presentation is to raise your awareness of the magnitude of the problem as well as highlight issues that should cause you to lose sleep at night. |

Lt. Gen. Raduege serves as the co-chairman for the Center for Strategic and International Study's (CSIS's) Commission on Cybersecurity for the 44th Presidency. The Commission released its report in December 2008, which included 25 recommendations for President Obama to consider, and more importantly, stressed the need for a comprehensive national strategy to secure cyberspace.
