Overview
The 5th Annual Cybersecurity Summit for Government Contractors is a one-day, high level, broad sweep of how cybersecurity impacts the latest regulatory requirements, business risks, and technology challenges in today's government and commercial landscape.

Welcome to the 2020 Cybersecurity Summit brought to you by Federal Publications Seminars and NeoSystems. This year’s program consists of 3 educational tracks – Executive, Compliance and Technical. Our speakers and panelists have been carefully selected and invited for their industry expertise on the subject matter. We believe having three tracks will benefit all participants and provide lively, interactive discussions between the panels and the audience.  
  • The Executive Track – Geared for top-level managers and decision makers, this track offers insights into leadership decisions and awareness on cyber-related topics to help organizations understand the risks and rewards of best cyber policies and practices.
  • The Compliance Track – This track is for managers and experts in compliance whose jobs are to foresee challenges and issues before they happen as well as keeping others updated on changes in cyber-related regulations.   The track will consist of discussions around legal and regulatory updates as well as developments in compliance at both state and federal levels. 
  • The Technical Track – This track is for the gladiators working hard to keeping data safe and out of the hands of intruders.  Discussion on topics are related to recent data breaches, cloud security and AI machine learning attacks.  It is the ‘what happened and how do we prevent it from happening to us’ track. 
We will have many opportunities to interact with presenters and attendees and looking forward to seeing you there! If you are in a leadership position and the threat of a cyber event keeps you up at night, you should not miss this event.
