Zero Trust makes an appearance later in the program as well, with a 12:15 pm ET panel moderated by SANS’s Ismael Valenzuela.

Another talk you won’t want to miss is at 2:30 pm ET, when Gregory J. Skinner, Mayor of the Borough of Peapack & Gladstone, New Jersey, takes the mic to discuss cyber security issues facing small town America.

What better way to close out the day than with a session that zeroes in on Industrial Control Systems (ICS) security? Subject matter expert and SANS Certified Instructor Dean Parsons discusses the top active cyber defense approaches enabling the future protection of critical infrastructure. And, lest I forget to mention, Dean’s taking questions!
