ISSA-LA Security Summit 2024

 Democracy is in decline for the 18th consecutive year, and many experts consider the United States a democracy at risk. As a mother, I have also considered what elections might look like when my children vote for the first time in 2028. We strive for free and fair elections but our foreign enemies want to disrupt and derail those processes, flooding our networks and media with attacks.

This apolitical presentation explores the various dimensions of cyber threats targeting elections, focusing on disinformation campaigns, ransomware attacks, and the rise of political extremism and violence. You will be empowered to protect democratic processes in an increasingly digital age and navigate a messy political information landscape.

TBD

The panel will discuss question such as:

•  How did you achieve your current position, and who has been the most influential in helping you get here?
• What has been the biggest obstacle you've faced in reaching your current role?
• In what ways have men contributed to your journey to where you are today?
• What is the best and worst advice you could give to another woman aspiring to enter the field of cybersecurity?

Join this stellar group of Female Leaders as they discuss the important issues to watch out for in the coming year.
