Cyber Security Experts from across the Federal Government to Present at Cyber Security Readiness 2010

New York, New York - Worldwide Business Research (WBR) is hosting Cyber Security Readiness for the Federal Government 2010. The 3-day training conference brings together Government, Industry and Academia to discuss ways to take a more long-term, holistic approach to mitigating the threats to security and improving secure information sharing across the government. Cyber Security Readiness is scheduled for November 3-5, 2010 at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, VA.

"Each day the U.S. Government is targeted by cyber attacks; yet vulnerabilities are often dealt with on an ad-hoc basis," says Lisa Ringlen, the executive director of the Cyber Security Readiness For The Federal Government 2010 program. "Hearing best practices from Federal Cyber experts is crucial to saving time and money and protecting critical systems and infrastructure."

This training program will address such central issues including: developing cyber talent including best practices for identifying, attracting and retaining the cyber workforce; enhanced information sharing and developing the foundation for cooperation; and policy, compliance and developing a long-term, holistic approach to government cyber security. Presenters at this event include: Nitin Pradhan, CIO of the Department of Transportation; Simon Szykman, CIO of the Department of Commerce; Jerry Davis, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Information Protection, Department of Veterans Affairs and Dr. Ronald Ross, Project Lead for FISMA Implementation, NIST.
