Plenary Panel 1
Responding to One Ransomware at a Time cannot be the Solution. How can we address the need for a cyber legal framework and associated incident response mechanism |
Chair - John South, Chairman, CFF Cyber Law and Cyber Crime Response Action Group Speakers: CFF Cyber Law and Cyber Crime Response Action Group Steering Committee - Camelia Lopez, US Attorney, Cyber Hacking and Intellectual Property, Eastern District of Texas - Bryan Hurd, Senior Director, Security Strategy, Versive, Former Chief of Operations, Identity Operations, National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) - FBI Special Agent, Cyber Crime Investigations, FBI Dallas Motivation, Intent, Outcome: How can public-private partnership assist with the development, implementation and evolution of national and global Cyber Legal Frameworks to address the evolving Cyber Challenges. While law enforcement communities around the world share information on traditional crime, cyber crime related issues face a signficant challenge as the data is usually held closer to the end users and victims in the private sector, sometimes spannig across industries. Though we have seen significant improvement in outreach and cooperation between private sector organization and law enfocement agencies, there still many thorny issues to be discussed and resolved betweent he two - this includes the lawful government access to consumer and business data for aiding investigations. An understanding of the current legal framework, types of cybercrime and regulat structured legal framework for information sharing and general collaboration norms would aid this effort significantly. This panel, most of whom are closely working towards this direction and have first hand experience will share their experience and aid in the development of these norms and policies. |
| 10:00 AM - 10:25 AM Auditorium |
Spotlight Session:
Learning from the History: Security Lessons from George Washington's BIG Mistake |
Speakers: Paul Raines, Chief Information Security Officer, United Nations Development Program
Motivation, Intent, Outcome: Cyber warfare is now a real thing. Nation states are actively stockpiling cyber ammunition. National cyber posture is moving from one of reactive response to active cyber defense. We need to understand what are the discrepancies between our understanding of the current state of cyberspace is, who are our allies and who are the adverseries, and apply tactical means to gain momentum towards a stronger strategic cyber posture. There are possibly significant history lessons from an incident that happened some 250 years back that is still valid, and we can learn from them. |
| 10:30 AM - 11:15 AM Auditorium |
Plenary Session 2 Intelligent Transportation, the Cyber Implications. Defining the cybersecurity framework and guidance for transportation of the future. |
Cyber Task Force on Intelligent Transportation
Jeff Davis, SVP, Intelligent Transportation Society of America Co-Chair, National Cybersecurity Taskforce on Intelligent Transportation Val Mukherjee Chairman, Cyber Future Foundation Co-Chair, National Cybersecurity Taskforce on Intelligent Transportation Dan Talbott, Director, Cyber Future Foundation Usman Choudhary, SVP, Products, Vipre Security Motivation, Intent, Outcome: We are seeing an incredible rise of interest and adoption in the intelligent transportation ecosystem. Traditional automakers as well as technology giants are in a race to outpace eachother and launch the next level of automated vehicle. This is not only disruptive technology, but has immense social implications in providing consistency and safety on the roads our daily commute, decreasing traffic congestion and accidents, by increasing road safety. However this would be only possible and as reliable or better as a human driver when vehicle and infrastructure have secure communication backbone and platform. With intelligent transportation there is also an increasing concern for privacy as more more personal data and mata is going to be collected and shared within the ecosystem. This panel from the Cyber Task Force for Intelligent Transportation will bring forth the points of deliberation on the safety, security and privacy aspects of intelligent transportation ecosystems and their implications on the society, as to how we can realize the full potential of this incredible opportunity. |

These range from the talks of creating a more secure internet protocol using blockchain (IPFS - Inter Planatory File System), to disruptive Fintech solutions based on block chain, smart contracts and many more. It is worth noting that blockchain is based on current fundamental protocols, including encryption that drive the current internet. Besides the number of independent implementation and still immature protocols around this implementation are set to pose as great risk to running business on them. This panel will discuss the different implications of Blockchain technology and its challenges with respect to cybersecurity as we know it. In connection with the security application of blockchain, it is recognized that digital world needs a digital identity for every connected device and ever more trusted identity for the humans who interface with it, and the ability to discern between the two is going to determine the success of our cybersecurity measures. Without identification and attribution there is no accountability. Identity is the new perimeter and in a rapidly expanding digital world, it is the most crucial element determining the extent of the organization and its access to its information assets. The panel will also delve into the use of Blockchain technologies for the development of a trusted identity platform with due recognition of the strengths and weaknesses of implementing such a critical global identity infrastructure for businesses. This panel will determine advances and best practices required for digital identity for the digital economy. |

Plenary Session 5
Cybersecurity has emerged as an essential board topic. How can the executive and board room officers be swiftly enabled to have an intelligent discussion so as to make informed decision. |
Chair: Co-Chair, CFF Leadership Enablement and Advancement Program
Speakers: CFF LEAP Steering Committee Members Shamoil Shipchandler, Regional Director, Security Exchange Commission, Fort Worth Office Peter Gouldman, Enterprse Risk Officer - Cyber, US Department of State Andy Purdy, Chief Security Officer, Huawei Motivation, Intent, Outcome: The need for continued executive and board enablement is a crucial to the progress being made in addressing the cyber challenges of today and turning these into opportunities of tomorrow. This is not only essential for the success of the organization, but even basic survival. Establishing a cybersecurity body of knowledge for executive enablement is a necessary step towards this direction. CFF's efforts need a deliberate attempt and focused plan towards partnering with executive associations to consolidate the body of knowledge and aid in its dissemination. Cyber chiefs who have been successful typically align to the board and executive management's risk posture and take a risk based approach to inform the board on cyber decisions. This panel will discuss the essential elments of vertically integrated knowledge domains that need to included and the options for operationalizing the cyber enablement program for the boards using an enterprise risk management approach. |

Plenary Panel 6
Cybersecurity requirements for a safe Civil Society, ensuring cybersecurity in critical infrastructure serving public good. What are the expected norms and policies. |
Panelists: CFF Steering Committee on Critical Infrastructure Protection
Chair: - Dave Marwell, General Secretary & Founding trustee, Cyber Future Foundation VP, Enterprise Financial Crimes Compliance Operations at U.S. Bancorp Former Director of the Joint Task Force–Investigations. DHS-ICE Speakers: - Ted Chapman, Senior Director U.S. Public Finance Infrastructure Group, Standard & Poor/S&P Global Ratings - Shaun Khalfan, Director, Cyber Future Foundation Head of Information Security Risk Program, Freddie Mac Adjunct Professor, George Washington University - Dr. Craig Schultz, CEO & Founder, Neo Prime Solutions Motivation, Intent, Outcome: We take many things for granted in life such as uninturrupted power and utilities, safe roads and infrastructure. In a hyperconnected world we have to make a concerted effort to ensure that technolgy vulnerabilities are not exploited to disrupt this basic expectation of a civil society. Consumer protection, safety, and privacy is a basic expectation of a civil society, and it needs to be granted to every law abiding citizen. These basic norms and expectations need to be agreed upon in terms of multi-country or bilateral agreements to ensure there is a neutral approach to consumer protection. Standardizing the definition of sectors associated with critical infrastructure and ensuring end user protection as a basic right would need the industry and governments to work hand in hand in agreeinf to these basic rights. This panel will consider the scenarios associated with these basic critical infrastructure and consumer protection issues and identify the direction to be taken to address them. |
