Presentation: ISECOM's Hacker High School Program
Speaker: Bob Monroe, Institute for Security and Open Methodologies Hawaii
Topic: ISECOM's Hacker High School program is designed to teach high school students how to be cyber security professionals in a very innovative way. We all know we need more Security Professionals in the future and ISECOM's program is designed to provide High Schoolers with a much more in-depth program than normal. We teach open source and not commercial tools. We teach the command prompt instead of some fancy GUI interface. We expect students to make mistakes and learn from those errors. We also expect our participants to adhere to local and international laws regarding the digital realm. Criminal behavior is not acceptable nor tolerated at Hacker High School.
There is no law written where hacking is a crime. The media will tell you otherwise but we at the Institute for Security and Open Methodology know for a fact that hacking is not illegal. Computer crime is illegal. Unauthorized access is criminal behavior. Stealing data and credentials is breaking the law. Taking things that do not belong to you is wrong but hacking itself is not a crime. The sole purpose of Hacker High School is to teach high school students how to be cyber security professionals.

Bio: Bob Monroe grew up in Southern California before he joined the U.S. Army in 1985. One of Bob's first military assignments introduced him to the world of hacking. His prankster ways ended abruptly in 1996 when he was almost caught hacking by an eighty-two year old librarian. This incident led to a renewed interest in cyber security, as a good guy. Since then, he has written several articles for publication and maintains a passion for digital security. Bob holds a Master of Science in Information Assurance from Norwich University. Bob's specialty is public teaching and security awareness training. Along with work for the U.S. Army, he has provided security classes for the Veterans Administration, Military District of Washington, Commandant of the Marine Corp and staff, as well as countless others across the world. He holds a U.S. Patent for airport security automation technology that combines radar and thermal imaging to protect aircraft movement areas and the surrounding airspace. Bob works with ISECOM as an editor and writer. He also works as an editor/writer and English interpreter for Hackin9 and Eforensic Magazines. Both publications are produced in Europe with an international clientele. In his spare time, Bob makes children's toys in his small woodshop. He still has all eight fingers, too.

Presentation: Getting Started - Managing Third Party Cyber Risk
Speaker: Joe Lauducci
Topic: Vendor risk management has become a major issue for businesses following major breaches traced back to third party vendors, suppliers and business partners. Among breaches that were tracked by Verizon for the most recent Data Breach Investigations report, they found that 70 percent of breaches had negative downstream effects on third parties. Despite this growing threat, Gartner has estimated that only ten percent of organizations have a vendor risk management program in place. Gartner estimates that this will grow to 40% by 2018.
The threat of sharing data outside of a company's networks is bound to grow as businesses continue to outsource important business functions. As companies recognize the need for more formal operations to mitigate the cyber threats posed by vendors, there emerges a crucial question: where do I start?
In this session you will learn:
Bio: Joe Lauducci is Regional Sales Manager with BitSight Technologies, the Cambridge, Mass.-based risk management company leading the way in the security ratings market. Working in technology sales since 2001, Joe specialized in cybersecurity for the last 10 years. Prior to his role at BitSight, Joe led sales efforts on the East and West Coasts for Sophos, Prolexic, and Akamai to help protect the infrastructure, data and availability of the world's most prominent financial institutions and Global 2000 companies. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the State University of New York at Cortland, and volunteers for financial literacy programs for underserved youth in Southern California.

Cost: $0 Members/$0 Non-members
Presentation: The Silent Witness in Smart City Solutions
Speaker: Retired Police Chief and Synnex Public Safety Manager Mike Gambrell
Topic: Across the country, local organizations such as schools (K-12, Higher Ed), private facilities and securities, and regulated industry businesses are working with police to incorporate public safety into the mix of issues addressed in a comprehensive community development partnership. When community developers and planners talk about public safety, we often use words like "underpinning" and 'foundation". Addressing and preventing crime is a necessary precursor to community-wide revitalization in the public and private sectors. It is difficult to attract businesses, residents, and other investors to communities that have significant crime or perceived as being unsafe. Public Safety officials address the public safety component of Smart City solutions to enhance the quality of life by using technology to improve the efficiency of services for the benefit of citizens and visitors to their assigned jurisdiction. The backbone of this strategy are the wide array of cameras and associated mobility solutions deployed that have become known as the Silent Witness in Smart City Solutions. Attendees will hear insights from a retired Police Chief and current Public Safety Subject Matter Expert, Mike Gambrell, relative to the public safety component of smart city solutions. Attendees will leave with an understanding of innovative solutions and partnerships utilized by cities that are designed to deliver more and/or better services efficiently and cost-effectively integrating public and private entities for a smart city solution founded on public safety technology.
Bio: Mike Gambrell, a thirty year retired law enforcement veteran, served throughout a municipal agency in various roles as officer, detective, and in supervisory positions within all Divisions including Operations, Support, and Administration. Promoted through the ranks, he recently retired following his service in the role of Police Chief. He has been the recipient of four different external officers of the year awards through the years. Possessing an undergraduate and graduate degrees in Criminal Justice, he is also a graduate of the prestigious F.B.I. National Academy in 2007. Utilizing and sharing his vast knowledge, he is leading the new SYNNEX initiative in the Public Safety Sector serving in the role of Public Safety Program Manager. The knowledge and assistance provided will assist customers in bridging any gap between the technology practitioner and public safety practitioners. Working collectively with the team and marketing program, Mike finds it invigorating to share the vision of this new initiative with the house of experts lodged in the GovSolv platform through our partners to Public Safety professionals across the nation.

Presentation: Software Defined Visibility, How Next Generation Packet Brokers Make This Possible
Speaker: Marcus Salvemini
Topic: When deploying security defenses, Packet Brokers can provide the most advanced engineering capabilities to manipulate the flows and packets before they are ingested by the Security tools, and need to be included in the overall SDN design.
Next Generation Packet Brokers have the ability to integrate with SDN controllers through the use of RESTFull API's.
These Packet Brokers come with a robust Software interface that lends itself to the basic 4 constructs of SDN controlled infrastructures and therefore make it a simple bridge between the Controller and the underlying Packet Broker platforms, allowing the SDN controller to automate many actions taken at the Fabric layer of the Packet Broker, as well as providing manual interaction by the controller and the physical platform when needed.
