SUMMARY:Society and Cyberthreats: Risks to National Security in a Global Economy
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Virtual Event on Wednesday\, October 19th at 6:30 PM via Zoom Webinar\, Society and Cyberthreats: Risks to National Security in a Global Economy. \nToday\, we transact vast amounts of data through smart-devices for work\, home life\, and everything in between.  Data is the ‘new oil’ and cybersecurity has evolved into a primary focus for malicious actors—some of whom are foreign State actors and often very well organized\, coordinated\, with the objective of achieving strategic outcomes.  To better understand this landscape of cyberthreats\, we bring together this panel discussion on Society and Cyberthreats to examine our country’s cyber strategies. \nWe are joined by Dr. Harknett and Ms. Guider to start by asking some simple questions to better understand Cyberthreats in our daily lives beyond our mere distant awareness about coercion\, militarized crisis\, and war:  \n\nIs cybersecurity more of a technology or people problem? \nHow have the nature of cybersecurity threats changed in the recent decade(s)?\nHow has the training/education curriculum evolved in response to the changing global cybersecurity threats?\n\nGuest Panelists: \nKathy Guider\, Vice President Veracity IIR\, retired FBI Special Agent \nRichard Harknett\, PhD\, University of Cincinnati\, Professor & Director\, School of Public and International Affairs (SPIC)\, Co-Director\, Ohio Cyber Range Institute(OCRI)\, Chair\, Center for Cyber Strategy and Policy (CCSP)

SUMMARY:Open Data: Promise and Peril in Modern Data Flows Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:Every day\, information flows at rates and quantities that are difficult for the human mind to comprehend. Within this vastness of data exist two competing concepts:  \n\nData should be proprietary and guarded\, \nData should be open and publicly available. \n\nIt is generally believed that data related to personal financial and medical data should be private and secure\, while it may be important for items such as NASA and SEC data to be open and publicly available. There can be gaps in security for both types.  Those gaps are exploited by opportunists engaging unknowing targets. When technology outpaces oversight\, it can create friction between the parties involved.  It can also bring opportunities for good.  \n\nWhat happens when intellectual property rights impede research? \nHow do the strategies used by large corporations and individuals vary when it comes to making use of open data and where does each have a competitive advantage?\nWhat are governments doing to confront these new challenges\, and do they play by the same rules?\nHow do companies create value for their customers by sharing data?\n\nJoin us as we dive into this broad topic with our panel of three technology leaders: \n\nJason Barkeloo\, Founder and CEO\, Open Therapeutics\nDebbie Kramer\, Sr. Director – Privacy\, The Kroger Co.\nMichael Wilhite\, VP Enterprise Standards\, 84.51°

Clark (ret.) is a businessman\, educator\, writer and commentator. \nGeneral Clark serves as Chairman and CEO of Wesley K. Clark & Associates\, a strategic consulting firm; Chairman and Founder of Enverra\, Inc. a licensed investment bank; Chairman of Energy Security Partners\, LLC; as well as numerous corporate boards including BNK Petroleum and Leagold Mining.  He is active in energy\, including oil and gas\, biofuels\, electric power and batteries\, finance\, and security. During his business career he has served as an advisory\, consultant or board member of over ninety private and publicly traded companies.   In the not-for-profit space\, he is a Senior Fellow at UCLA’s Burkle Center for International Relations\, Director of the Atlantic Council; Founding Chair of City Year Little Rock/North Little Rock; and founder of Renew America Together.  A best-selling author\, General Clark has written four books and is a frequent contributor on TV and to newspapers. \nClark retired as a four star general after 38 years in the United States Army\, having served in his last assignments as Commander of US Southern Command and then as Commander of US European Command/ Supreme Allied Commander\, Europe. He graduated first in his class at West Point and completed degrees in Philosophy\, Politics and Economics at Oxford University (B.A. and M.A.) as a Rhodes scholar. While serving in Vietnam\, he commanded an infantry company in combat\, where he was severely wounded and evacuated home on a stretcher. He later commanded at the battalion\, brigade and division level\, and served in a number of significant staff positions\, including service as the Director\, Strategic Plans and Policy (J-5). He was the principal author of both the US National Military Strategy and Joint Vision 2010\, prescribing US warfighting for full-spectrum dominance. He also worked with Ambassador Richard Holbrooke in the Dayton Peace Process\, where he helped write and negotiate significant portions of the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement. In his final assignment as Supreme Allied Commander Europe he led NATO forces to victory in Operation Allied Force\, a 78-day air campaign\, backed by ground invasion planning and a diplomatic process\, saving 1.5 million Albanians from ethnic cleansing. \nHis awards include the Presidential Medal of Freedom\, Defense Distinguished Service Medal (five awards)\, Silver star\, bronze star\, purple heart\, honorary knighthoods from the British and Dutch governments\, and numerous other awards from other governments\, including award of Commander of the Legion of Honor (France). He has also been awarded the Department of State Distinguished Service Award and numerous honorary doctorates and civilian honors. \n\n \nGovernor Larry Hogan\nGovernor of the State of Maryland \nMaryland Governor Larry Hogan is not a career politician. He spent nearly his entire career as a small businessman. Fed up with high taxes\, politics as usual\, and decades of a one-party monopoly\, he started Change Maryland\, the largest non-partisan grassroots citizen organization in state history. In 2014\, out-numbered in party registration by more than 2-1\, and outspent by more than 5-1\, Governor Hogan pulled off the biggest upset in America to become only the second Republican Governor elected in Maryland in 50 years. \nGovernor Hogan quickly got to work and set an example for the nation\, accomplishing what many believed was no longer possible: reaching across the aisle\, and working together to achieve real bipartisan\, common sense solutions. He eliminated the $5.1 billion deficit and cut taxes four years in a row. Under his leadership\, Maryland produced one of the greatest economic turnarounds of any state in the nation. Governor Hogan also accomplished innovative health care solutions and made historic investments in education\, transportation infrastructure\, and in protecting the environment. \nAfter four years of economic success and bipartisan progress – in one of the bluest states in America – Governor Hogan was overwhelmingly re-elected in 2018 to a second term\, making him only the second Republican to do so in the entire 243 year history of the state. His cross-party appeal is evident in polls\, which consistently shows an overwhelming majority of all Republicans\, Democrats and Independents – nearly 80% of all Marylanders – approve of the job he is doing\, which is the highest of any governor in Maryland history. He recently served as Chairman of the National Governors Association\, leading the nation’s governors during the COVID-19 pandemic. National rankings consistently show Governor Hogan as one of the most popular governors in America. \n\n\nAbout Our Moderator \n \nRob Quirk\nAnchor/Moderator \nRob Quirk is an Emmy award-winning broadcast journalist. He has been the primary weeknight news anchor at News5 for nearly 30 years. Rob says that he is honored and humbled to have been able to bring the most important stories of the day to our News5 viewers\, to act as an advocate for them\, and work with them\, in developing a partnership and relationship that has kept News5 the number one source of news for all of Southern Colorado. \nHe has been involved with the production and reporting of many important and historic stories and events across Southern Colorado since 1989. His anchoring\, reporting and producing have won numerous awards with the Colorado Broadcasters Association and the Associated Press.
