The Army Cyber Institute’s (ACI’s) Jack Voltaic (JV) project enables the institute to study incident response gaps alongside assembled partners to identify interdependencies among critical infrastructure and provide recommendations. JV provides an innovative, bottom‐up approach to critical infrastructure resilience in two unique ways. Whereas most federal efforts to improve resiliency focus on regional or multistate emergency response, JV focuses on cities and municipalities where critical infrastructure and populations are most heavily populated. Furthermore, JV deviates from other cybersecurity and national preparedness exercises in that it builds around areas of interest nominated by the participants. Although JV events include national-level capabilities

Complex multi-cloud infrastructures of managed services, vendors, and remote employees are now part of everyday operations in the normal course of a working day. The complexity of cloud and supply chain security in light of FedRAMP and CMMC compliance may actual hide the exploits of Nation State actors seeking to extort information and data. This session examines cybersecurity as it relates to cloud, supply chain and a high level peek at zero trust architecture as entities face 2023.

When folks think about cybersecurity, they most often think of securing their networks, software, and digital assets against cyber-attacks and data breaches. But the supply chain - whether a traditional manufacturer or service provider's supply chain or the "data supply chain" relied on by most companies is also vulnerable to security risks, as has been seen in a litany of major data breaches via third parties.
The concept of supply chain is associated with the ability to effectively orchestrate multiple vendors to deliver a final product or service. The complementary adoptions of low-cost interoperable technologies, alongside rapid innovations in physical and

Quantum computing’s ability to solve complex problems that are beyond the capabilities of the traditional computer renders it exceptional. While the quantum research community applauds the accelerated rate at which quantum computers are being developed; it is also a threat considering it can unravel the algorithms behind the encryption keys that protect the assets we hold most dear (like our data and the internet’s infrastructure). It is estimated that within the next 3-5 years quantum computers will be able to break a 2048-bit number. This remarkable breakthrough continues to erode the timeline, demonstrating the hastening approach of a new paradigm

A brief history of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) coming into existence. DHS was created by Act of Congress and signed into law December 2002. 28 different agencies and elements merged into one cabinet department. Just imagine the conflicts! This was a collaborative effort of government and industry to stand-up the new agency. Explore how disjointed systems and processes were made cohesive, and what technology is needed going forward.

Relying organizations & consulting professionals have focused on using legacy techniques & stacking redundant symmetric authentication factors to avoid meaningful change. Security by obscurity, that has failed in the past, has once again become good enough to satisfy risk management objectives. The result
