Abstract:
It's no secret that most of the Internet is beyond our control. When the Internet's critical infrastructure fails, due to attack or natural disaster, ground zero is probably somewhere outside your organization's borders. How can you assess the impact on your stakeholders, and pass on the information they need to make sound policy decisions? Ecosystem, cloud computing, supply chain management, external and insider threats ... no matter how you look at it, there's no such thing as a "local network problem" any more. Working efficiently means working together, and working together means cooperation, coordination, and trust over the all-too-unreliable Internet. Panelists will review situational awareness technologies and sources of information that you can draw on to tell a coherent story in a time of crisis.
