Closing General Session Speaker Announced -
"Taking Cyber Security to the Edge"
Lt Gen(ret) Bruce A. Wright
VP, C4ISR, Lockheed Martin Washington Operations

LOCKHEED MARTIN PUTS COMPUTER ON A FLASH DRIVE: Agencies across the
Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community all face a
daunting national security challenge: how to balance the
ever-increasing demand for collaboration and information flow with the
need to secure that information. Warfighters and civilians alike are
seeking freedom to operate when they want and where they want, while
IT managers are challenged to stay ahead of the evolving cyber
security threats and ensure our ability to "fight through the attack".
This presentation will discuss strategies for integrating in-depth
cyber security operations to protect information and continue to carry
out national security missions. It will also address the challenge of
securing data at the "edge" of the global network - where information
is often most vulnerable, specifically how a new technology called
IronClad(TM) can secure a user's entire hard drive - from the
operating system and applications to personal desktop and files - on a
rugged, tamper-proof and portable USB drive.

"TECHNOLOGY:  CHANGING THE GAME"
This year, the Systems and Software Technology Conference will explore
various technologies which are expected to make abrupt changes to
common thought. We will explore the tools, the processes, and the ideas
which will "change the game" and make the way we have done things in
the past - obsolete.

Remember just a few years ago, office staffs were content to use a
document creation method which required a specific keyboard layout, a
QWERTY keyboard.  The keyboard was designed to minimize the number of
key collisions and improve typing efficiency.   Although we have
maintained the QWERTY interface, the computer and word processing
software have changed the game.  Typewriters are now museum relics.

According to Dr. Alex Roland and Dr. Wayne Lee, several historical
innovations and technologies have demonstrated radical game changing
differences to conduct war.  They suggest items like gun powder,
aircraft, radar, and GPS have rewritten many aspects of war.  In a
recent survey conducted by IBM, top-level executives of various
corporations revealed a common concern that somewhere in a garage can
or dorm room, another game changing technology is about ready to burst
onto the scene.

What are these new game changing technologies going to be?
Where will they come from?
Will the near future bring a war fought in Cyberspace?

Join us in sharing your insights and work at SSTC 2010 and help us
answer which technologies will Change the Game. . . .
