Presentation Title: Better Managing Cyber Risk by Skating to the Puck
Traditional cyber defenses are failing. Based on technologies and ideas spawned in the 1990s, they crumble before today's sophisticated threat actors. In this provocative and sometimes irreverent presentation, retired Air Force Brigadier General Greg Touhill, the U.S. government's first Federal Chief Information Officer and current president of the Cyxtera Federal Group, will discuss the current state of cybersecurity and present courses of action to better protect national prosperity and national security.
