Media Briefing
Critical Controls to Improve Cyber Posture
Tony Sager, most recently Chief Operating Officer of the National Security
Agency's Information Assurance Directorate, is leading an international group
in defining and promoting the most effective controls for computer and network
security and the most rapid ways to deploy them. The United States, United
Kingdom, Australia and dozens of major agencies and corporations have already
agreed to cooperate in defining and promoting the most effective controls for
computer and network security and the most rapid ways to deploy them. The SANS
Top 20 Critical Security Controls, as well as, the Australian 35 Strategies to
Mitigate Targeted Cyber Intrusions will be the baseline of high-priority
information security measures and controls that can be applied across an
organization in order to improve its cyber defense.
On November 5th at 8:00 AM PDT, Sager will conduct a media briefing with
representatives of the consortium participants including Eric Cole on the 20
Critical Controls, Alan Paller the FCC initiative, and other a list of
speakers on the 35 mitigations and other initiatives which promise to have
profound positive impact on our cyber security posture.
State, local, and territorial governments that have implemented or are in the
process of implementing the 20 critical controls are invited to join the media
event and Tony's group.
