FireEye Government Forum Carahsoft

In order to protect themselves, federal, state and local governments and their partners need a clearer picture of the rapidly-evolving threat landscape that has drastically changed with new rules of engagement. Nation-state actors, cyber criminals and hackers have become less predictable. The attack surface continues to grow with the rise in connectivity, data loads and access to industrial control systems. To identify, assess, respond and mitigate threats such as ransomware, extortion, espionage and zero-day attacks, as well as predict and prevent the “unknown threat,” agencies need to build intelligence-led security operations. CIOs and CISOs are drowning in their own security stack while analysts are exhausted by “alert fatigue.” Operationalizing security enables security professionals to rapidly collect, analyze and disseminate threat intelligence across the enterprise, assess risk based on an adversary’s motivation and capability and align resources to the most impactful threats.

Join the 4^th annual FireEye Government Forum “Operationalizing Security for a New Era” on March 15 to collaborate and network with more than 1,000 senior government officials, CIOs, CISOs, analysts and security professionals from federal, state, local and allied partner governments as well as industry partners on how to integrate intelligence-led security.

Attendees will learn:

- How to enable security operations personnel, CISOs, and CIOs through the expansion of responsibility for whole agency cyber accountability.
- How to protect agency networks from attackers and deploy security technologies in the cloud, on-premise or a hybrid of both.
- How to better manage the total cost of “good security: ownership" from the technology stack to the investment resources and to the human capital needed to successfully operate and maintain security services.
- How security plus risk mitigation is the best equation for compliance.
- What the cyber warriors at the center of the fight are finding to the increasingly sophisticated cyber threats facing the nation.
- The consolidation, integration, and joint mission capabilities coming together in the DOD’s cyber domain.
- How Cyber ISR all source intelligence fuses traditional intelligence disciplines through the cyberspace domain.
- Novel ways to battle the rise of ransomware.

10:15 AM – 11:15 AM	Enabling the Government CISO to Command and Protect Along with compliance requirements, agency Chief Information Security Officers oversee the security of the government’s networks and critical infrastructure from domestic and foreign attacks. The monitoring and fortification of these systems is critical to protecting the public’s health, safety and economic prosperity. Potential oversights can put the nation at risk to insider threats and those seeking to gain access to sensitive data, intelligence or possibly launch malicious programs into our systems and networks. This session will take a deep-dive into the immediate and long-term hurdles facing CISOs across all levels of government missions from providing security for information systems that support operations and assets to the expansion of responsibility for whole agency cyber accountability.

1:00 PM – 2:30 PM	Cyber Threat Intelligence Know your enemy. Modern cyber attackers are sophisticated, well-funded and well-organized. For government agencies to stop them, they need to know exactly how they work. This track will look directly at the hackers that want to steal government information, explaining how they work, why they do it and what government can do to stop them.	Readiness and Response Federal agencies not only need to be ready at all times for a breach, but they must also be able to quickly respond once the inevitable breach happens. Readiness and response are key to minimizing the impact of cyber breaches. In this track, we’ll look at ways to improve readiness and response, along with a look into NIST Special Publication 800-184 “Guide for Cybersecurity Event Recovery.”	Current Trends in the Cyber Threatscape Russia, China and Iran. Legacy systems and an aging workforce. An incredibly vulnerable national critical infrastructure. Cybersecurity threats exist almost everywhere you look. This track will explore current trends in the cyber threatscape and the mission-critical aspects of your security posture you need to focus on in 2017.
