Three highly regarded community technologists will meet in a NextGov morning event 3 June 2014 to examine Big Data’s Role in Cybersecurity.

Details from the invite:

When addressing cybersecurity, it is tempting to think that strengthening walls is enough to prevent unwanted intruders–yet data breaches continue to occur at alarming rates. Facing increasingly sophisticated adversaries, bigger walls aren’t enough anymore, yet big data promises to revolutionize how agencies detect and analyze cyber threats. Even now, agencies are sharing threat analyses with security partners and using analytics to monitor network traffic to detect threats in real-time. But how exactly does Big Data mesh with existing cybersecurity policies?

Join Nextgov in part two of the Cyber Series, where we will sit down with government and industry experts to understand the way that Big Data improves cybersecurity and the role it will play in the future. We will discuss:

• Real-time threat detection                                                     
• Using and collecting breach data to prevent future malicious attacks                                                                                  
• Sharing analysis between agencies and other partners in security

	Roberta Stempfley

	Diana Burley
	Professor, Graduate School of Education and Human Development, George Washington University
