Talk Abstract - These are desperate times globally. No company and no government is safe from cyber events. The best offense and defense is to establish executive awareness and to be innovative. If you do not want to be a cyber warrior, you do not have to, but just know that they are. This talk is designed to share lessons learned from experiences and to arm everyone in the audience with enough information to begin to fight the dark side of cyberwar.
