2019 DC CyberWeek

During Fintech Week, thought leaders from fintech firms across the country, from Amazon to Zcash, describe their business, and explain how their services intersect with markets for a global audience consisting of policymakers, market participants, lawyers, and thought leaders.  Last year (2018), an international array of regulators, from the Chairman of the CFTC to the Co-Director of the Colombia's central bank, layed out their perspective on the future fintech regulatory policy at Georgetown, the IMF and on Capitol Hill.  FIntech Week's orgins lay in the unveiling of the OCC fintech charter by then Comptroller of the Currency Thomas Curry at Georgetown Law's Institute of International Economic Law.  Since then the IIEL has been a locus for some of Washington's most vaunted and high profile discussions of fintech policy and innovation.  Fintech Week's founder and the Institute's director is Professor Chris Brummer.

"Currently, Security and Need to Know (NTK) are managed within applications and through a laborious, human-driven process that determines appropriate roles for each new user, one user at a time. This management of controls within applications is cumbersome, inefficient, and a barrier to implementing security protocols. Object level controls will foster better sharing, enable data discovery, improve security, reduce costs, and ensure compliance."
---(from 2019 DIA CIO RIF)
We will discuss how Data Centric Design, NUTS and SDFT directly answers this need and then goes beyond it. How object level control based on our Data Centric Design will change how you see Continuous Recovery, Asymmetric Anonymity, Key Management and much more. We will also touch upon how this design naturally satisfies many regulatory requirements that have recently been introduced such as GDPR and CCPA. We will step through our prototype demo to show how these concepts fit into a secured container without any needs for a reference monitor and how they are secured by default regardless if in transit or at rest.

Creating a culture of cyber security is critical for all organizations, including CMS. The internet is used to support many of our day-to-day activities and for many purposes. As technology improves, there is evidence that cyber-attacks are occurring more frequently and if they are successful, their impacts can be damaging. Knowing how to identify and prevent common cyber-attacks helps promotes a more secure internet environment for everyone.In support of National Cyber Security Awareness Month, the Information Security & Privacy Group (ISPG) is hosting the annual CISO Cyber Security Awareness Forum & Training Exercise.

Our goal during National Cyber Security Awareness month is to engage and educate CMS staff on protecting information technology systems and data from cyber-attacks and to promote clear and consistent communications about cyber security and privacy protections.

Calling all CIOs, CTOs, and CISOs! In a world where a breach could mean the end of your organization, how do you choose a vendor to manage your company’s cyber security?! The stress of making this decision is compounded by the fact that the market is saturated with security vendors. Some specialize whereas others offer a wide range of services. Do you pick the Jack-of-all-trades, or perhaps the Ace-of–endpoint-protection? This talk will help you navigate the vast, rough seas of choosing a cyber security vendor.
We will begin with a discussion on the importance of selecting a quality security vendor. From there we will discuss how to choose a vendor based on metrics personalized to your organization. Lastly, we introduce a framework that can be used to help any company, large or small, in the selection of a quality security vendor.

We do not support brick and mortar medical facilities in the U.S., but rather medical units located on land and ships and in challenging environmental conditions. It should be remembered that products need to be suitable for use in an austere environment with extreme temperature ranges possible.

• Exhibit space is limited- no more than 35 companies will exhibit at this event
• You are only permitted to exhibit at one Vendor Day per calendar year
• Vendors must identify at the time of registration the products they wish to show.
• Participation by any vendor is solely at the discretion of members of the Vendor Day Review Committee
• Participation by a vendor does not in any way constitute approval of any product by any service organization and vendors will refrain from advertising as such.

How are FISMA Privacy Controls, CCPA(California Consumer Privacy Act) and GDPR(General Data Protection Regulation) impacting your organization? There is increased scrutiny on privacy specific controls with number of privacy breaches and increased oversight for personal data protection. 14 states are working right now on privacy regulation and efforts at federal level too so it is coming. Apart from regulatory controls and audit, this provides great opportunity, funding and reason for agencies/companies to do Data Privacy and Security Impact assessment and gear your Security & Privacy program towards realistic data centric security. Let us learn industry perspectives from subject matter experts who work on this daily basis.

No one gets to the Moon alone. 
Or anywhere else in space, for that matter.
It takes a massive amount of technology support to help scientists create rovers capable of sniffing out our cosmos. At NASA Goddard, it's the Information Technology and Communications Directorate (ITCD) team that provides a full range of IT services and capabilities – including desktop support, application development, collaboration tools, network engineering, and cyber security – so center scientists can focus on their missions.
Each year, ITCD hosts the Goddard Cybersecurity Expo at their secure facility to discuss cybersecurity and technology. You'll want to be there – the event has had a great, lengthy history in terms of both attendees and interest level:

• The audience is very engaged in all sessions and in the expo.
• In 2018, there were 200 attendees (all NASA Goddard employees).
• The CIO (chief adviser to the Goddard center director for IT strategy, planning, and IT service provisioning) and CISO always walk around to speak with vendors.
• There are 3-4 speaking sessions coordinated for the auditorium in building #8 (please submit an abstract - information will be available in August 2019.).
• Event has a unique setup that encourages constant interaction with attendees and allows Industry exhibitors to enjoy the sessions.
• This event is promoted to all NASA Cyber and IT-focused personnel, as well as the entire workforce at this location.

Identity identification today is often fragmented, using proprietary and siloed standards. This hinders the fight against financial crime, causes significant burden to Know Your Customer (KYC) or customer onboarding processes, and hampers transformation to a digital environment. The future of digital identity matters for competitiveness and security in a global and digital market. An economy where legal entity identification is done in a globally consistent, secure and efficient way brings several benefits – all of which can help firms and governments better prepare for the digital evolution.

Join the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) for our Washington Forum, “Accelerating into a Digital Future: Simplifying Entity Identification for the Digital Age,” on Thursday, October 24. Our Washington Forum, organized in collaboration with the Data Foundation, will allow attendees to engage in discussions with regulators and technology providers about how the LEI could be leveraged to enable straight-through processing, enhance entity identification efficiency, support blockchain and distributed ledger technology, and prepare for a global digital identity ecosystem. GLEIF and its partners will demo applications including the LEI in digital signatures, digital certificates and decentralized identifiers, and discuss the benefits and cost-reduction associated with the adoption of the LEI as a complement to existing entity identification systems.

The Forum is by invitation only and will abide by Chatham House rules.
