CERT Spotlight: Technical Symposium

Looking ahead

symposium

On March 10-11, CERT hosted an invitation-only event that brought together representatives from academia, government, and industry. The goal of the 2009 CERT Technical Symposium, Security Challenges in an Evolving World, was for individuals with a shared concern for cybersecurity to exchange ideas about how we can deal with the future.

The illustrious group of speakers presented a wide range of perspectives, and attendees were very interactive. The result was two days of stimulating discussions, increased understanding, and renewed commitment to securing technology.
