As the journey to secure our nation’s IT cyber infrastructure gains momentum, it is important to apply proven standards and methodologies that reduce risk and help us meet objectives for acquiring, developing and sustaining secure and reliable software-intensive systems. The theme of the March Cyber Resilience Summit is Securing Systems inside the Perimeter. Defending the network is NOT enough. The most damaging of system failures and security breaches are caused by vulnerabilities lurking inside the network at the application layer.
The discussion focused on meeting assurance-driven objectives, digital transformation, and cyber risk measurement at scale. We’ll discuss risk-managed evolution and practical application of systems engineering to support cloud readiness, big data, technical debt control and risk management of complex mission, C2, weapon and citizen-facing systems. 300 attendees registered from the White House, OMB, DoD, DHS, NSA and several Federal agencies.
