Theater #1: What is the Value of Infrastructure and Cybersecurity Exercise Development for All Levels of Government?

Description

Using the framework developed by the Army Cyber Institute at West Point, we will show the process needed for development of a scenario to fully test the physical and virtual aspects of multiple components of critical infrastructure to include Cybersecurity. Agency interdependence is complicated. This discussion includes the initial discovery and network evaluation; it will emphasize current events across the nation and the local environment to include weather, social, etc. Participants must successfully navigate and keep services working. Many companies, organizations and agencies are not fully aware of the resources and requirements needed during a crisis. Planning is key and knowing who and what are responsible for each step of any event and all of the pieces along the way are vital for network administrators, cybersecurity watchers, users, developers, etc. Attendees should leave with a better understanding of the need to test our infrastructure’s cybersecurity, the many players involved, and the complications involved therein.
