Tuesday: Cyber War: You're Doing it Wrong!
Marcus Ranum, Chief Security Officer, Tenable Network Security Inc.
No matter how you slice it, cyber war is technologically and militarily impractical. We've been talking about it for a long time, but the discussion has been (and still is) misleading and inaccurate.

Moderator: Peter Murray, CIO/VP,University of Maryland, Baltimore
Panelists:
Janice Abraham, President and CEO, United Educators
Cathy Hubbs, Chief Information Security Officer, American University
Gary Langsdale, University Risk Officer, The Pennsylvania State University

Three Conferences, One Location
The shared location and joint reception for this conference, the Enterprise IT Leadership Conference, and the ACTI Annual Meeting provide a unique opportunity to discuss enterprise security and infrastructure issues with fellow IT leaders. On Wednesday, April 17, the morning sessions will be combined with the Enterprise IT Leadership Conference to extend this networking opportunity.
Attend with a campus cohort. Consider inviting your campus CIO to attend with you. Offer to participate in the Enterpise IT Leadership Conference with your colleague. You'll be able to discuss what you're learning in context with your campus while building your relationship. Receive a discounted registration to the Enterprise conference if you've already registered for the Security conference.
