National Summit On Planning & Implementing the 20 Critical Security Controls

The first and only comprehensive conference on the 20 Critical Controls for Effective Cyber Defense: Consensus Audit Guidelines will take place on November 12-13 at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington DC.

Presented by 1105 Government Information Group, in partnership with the SANS Institute, this event details the 20 Critical Controls presented to the Obama Administration earlier this year. The Controls were identified to build agreement between agency CIOs and Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) across the government.

Attendees will gain an in-depth understanding of the necessity and benefits of the 20 Critical Controls and hear case studies from government teams who have implemented the 20 Critical Controls as a vital component of their agency’s overall security program.

Speakers include:

• John M. Gilligan, Co-Author, Twenty Important Controls for Effective Cyber Defense and FISMA Compliance, Member of the Cyber Security Commission to Advise the 44th President
• Ed Skoudis, SANS Instructor and Technical Editor, Consensus Audit Guidelines
