We are now accepting sponsors for our Fall 2008 Critical Infrastructure Protection Congress at the Rio All-Suite Hotel in Las Vegas on October 6-8.
The 2008 theme, "Risk 2.0: Next-Generation Threats, Challenges & Opportunities," highlights the security issues associated with new technologies and applications that affect all critical infrastructures.
The Fall 2008 Congress continues to execute on our goal to deliver key primary learning objectives for our attendees:
- Understand the importance of sharing information across different sectors and the impact each sector has on the resilience of the other sectors.
- Learn how information security, physical security and crisis management are converging as a result of blended threats.
- Gain practical insights on how to improve enterprise preparedness against risks, threats and incidents involving multiple disciplines.
- Acquire knowledge that can be applied to your everyday business practices to reduce risk and better protect your organization.
Four Conference Tracks are available for speaker topics:
- Information Security
- Physical Security
- Crisis Management
- Government & Industry
Sponsorship Benefits
- Sponsoring at the 2008 Fall Congress represents a unique opportunity to interact with Critical Infrastructure Protection practitioners in an intimate conference setting.
- Attendees at past events have included executives and senior-level experts in the information security, physical security, business continuity, disaster recovery, governance and compliance disciplines. These experts are from key critical infrastructure organizations in the communications, financial, technology, utilities and transportation industries, as well as national/state/local governments.
- The 2008 Fall Congress is presented in partnership with the ISAC Council, InfraGard and the PCIS, which will bring many high-profile and influential industry players to the event.
- Sponsoring the 2008 Fall Congress gives members of your company the ability to attend other sessions and networking events, including our receptions and dinners at no cost, and offers the chance to learn about the latest issues and best practices.
