IISC 2018: Calling All Government and Legislative Topic Speakers!

IISC 2018: Calling All Government and Legislative Topic Speakers!

The ISAO SO has seen some very dynamic proposals submitted for the Second Annual International Information Sharing Conference (IISC), taking place September 11–12, 2018 at the Hilton in Tysons Corner, Virginia. You’ve got a little more than one month left to submit an abstract for consideration. Abstract submissions due: May 14, 2018!

Join representatives from information sharing groups with all levels of expertise, security practitioners, major technology innovators, and well-established cybersecurity organizations, as they come together to discuss the impact Information Sharing and Analysis Organizations (ISAOs) have had on the nation’s security, share lessons learned, and discover the latest in cybersecurity policy. 

For those interested in speaking, we thought we’d break down topics of interest to the information sharing ecosystem in a series of four blogs covering each of the categories: Government and Legislation; Improving the Value of Information Shared; Hot Trends; and Growing your ISAO. Your proposed presentation or panel discussion should provide practical advice and solutions to attendees and equip them with the knowledge to meet today’s ever-changing cybersecurity challenges. All proposals will be evaluated on the value provided to ISAOs and the community at large.
