The combined NYS Cyber Security Conference, the Annual Symposium on Information Assurance (ASIA) / Secure Knowledge Management – A Workshop (SKM) are just 11 days away on June 5 and 6 at the Empire State Plaza in Albany NY. This is one of the best events security of the year  in the Northeast United States to attend and provides 7 parallel tracks that cover every thing including peer reviewed papers, security training, talks from leading industry practitioners, and two oustanding keynotes.

The 7 tracks include ASIA / SKM, cloud security, cyber’s impact, risk management, analysis of cyber threats, human factors, kids safe online, case studies, social media and mobiledevices, forensics and incident response, risk mitigation, cyber guidance and tips, and legal issues. We are lucky to have two outstanding keynotes – Billy Rios (Team Lead, Google) and Melissa Hathaway (former Director of the Joint Interagency Cyber Task Force in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence). We also have a featured speaker for ASIA / SKM in Merril Warkentin who is a Carole Ferguson Notable Scholar in the College of Business at Mississippi State University.

The registration is free for the presenters and government employees, $50 for not-for-profits and $200 for the private sector. This is the best deal for a security conference anywhere. Here are the links to the events.
