As a leading global forum on computer and information systems
security, the National Information Systems Security Conference
seeks to:
- bring together information security and technology
professionals from industry, academia, and government;
- provoke debate, dialogue, and action on major information
security issues for today and tomorrow;
- educate the IT community on major information security
issues and solutions;
- promote demand and investment in information security
products, solutions, and research;
- challenge the IT community to provide solutions, research,
and applied technology that are usable, inter operable,
scalable, and affordable.
