9 National University CSIA Needs Industry partners that will collaborate and -- Provide advisory resources to remain current in CyberSecurity and IA (CSIA) -- Assist in defining needed CSIA courseware for their employees -- Utilize laboratory facilities -- Contribute hardware and software -- Identify needed research topics for class and Capstone projects -- Partner in Centers of Excellence in CSIA -- Partner in federal research grants for CSIA -- Provide technical resources for research and publications Other universities that will complement joint research

10 CyberSecurity and IA Issues Maintaining IA as a Business Enabler -- securely and affordably letting the right people gain access to the right information Mitigate theft of confidential information -- personal and enterprise Provide a safe “right to privacy” social networking environment Concern about “letting down our security ‘guard’” during the 2009+ economic crisis How do we best fit into the national CyberSecurity Initiative? Properly vetting Internet content -- the provenance challenge
