SUMMARY:Membership Meeting 4/26/2023
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: 2023-04-26 Meeting Presentation \nSpeaker Slides: Cyber 911 Presentation \nClick Here to view promotional Video \n\nTopic: Who ya gonna call? \nIf there was something strange in your neighborhood\, who ya gonna call? The answer is obviously\, the Ghostbusters! Now if you looked outside your window\, and noticed that your neighbor’s house had caught on fire\, who ya gonna call? 911\, and ask help from your local fire department! Let’s say you saw a bad car crash\, and emergency services are needed urgently\, who ya gonna call? 911 again\, and ask for an ambulance or local EMT to be dispatched as quickly as possible! Now lets say that an elderly member of your community receives an email from someone that claims to be Microsoft\, and demands that they send thousands of dollars in “licensing fees” to avoid criminal prosecution\, who ya gonna call? That last one is where people suddenly don’t have a good answer. During a cyber emergency\, most people don’t have the luxury of figuring out how to call for help on their own. We will discuss a number of strategies that cybersecurity professionals can use to help answer this last question\, and hopefully stimulate good discussions on how we can better protect our communities from the growing cyber threat! \n\nSpeaker: Colin Hamill – Founder & IT Solutions Designer\, Sentinel Forge Technologies \nColin has always had a deep fascination and passion for working with computers and using them to solve problems. This passion led Colin to study Computer Science at the University of Maryland\, College Park\, where he first met his now-wife\, Melanie. It led him to a more than 15-year career as an Enterprise Presales Solutions Designer\, where he would build solutions for his clients using different pieces of technology as “building blocks” to solve their technical problems. Regardless of the specific technologies included\, Colin strove to communicate his solutions & designs in a clear & comprehensible way\, free of the jargon and alphabet-soup acronyms that can make the IT industry inaccessible for most of the population. His passion drove him to continue his education\, and he attended night classes at Loyola University after work and he earned his Master of Business Administration (MBA)\, with a focus on Information Systems. Colin’s MBA showed him how he could use his “technology building blocks” to solve his clients business problems & their technical problems at the same time. \nColin recently started his own business\, Sentinel Forge Technologies\, after seeing the impact on fuel supplies after the Colonial Pipeline Cyberattack of May 2021.  Colin has focused his efforts on combating the ever-increasing threat of Ransomware and Cyberattacks on critical US infrastructure and to help train the next generation of Cyber 911s. He believes that protecting America’s food supply is of utmost importance and that securing it will mean protecting every link in the agriculture supply chain\, both large & small.

SUMMARY:Membership Meeting 12/14/2022
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: Membership Meeting\, December 14\, 2022 \nSpeaker Slides: Supply-Chain-Security_Supplier-Contractor-Relationships-in-Negotiated-Contracts-12-14-2022 \n\nTopic: Supply Chain Security: Supplier/Contractor Relationships In Negotiated Contracts \nOver the past 5 years\, the world has seen unprecedented interest-in and allocation-of resources toward Cyber Security in both the public and private sectors.  The Supply-Chain has been stressed to its very limits and Third-Party relationships have been similarly stressed with the “trust but verify-verify-verify” protocol meaning more today than ever before.  Pre- and Post- Covid\, our relationships with our Business partners have taken on never before seen uncertainty in supply categories for security\, reliability\, and visibility\, as to who is providing what and how secure it will be upon arrival.  At the heart of these Business partner relationships are Contracts … and provisions within Contracts which stipulate 1) information and product security requirements; 2) adherence to Cyber Security Frameworks (CSFs)\, and 3) the providing of evidence (proof) which demonstrates the “Cyber Maturity” of a counterparty.  During the December 14th 2022 presentation to ISSA-Md\, the Information Systems Security discussion will center on Standard Cyber Security Contract Provisions which have been dictated by Risk Analysis Tenets and overlapping Cyber Security Frameworks (such as NIST\, ISO\, Cobit\, etc.) as well as legal requirements in the FAR\, the DFARS\, and CMMC 2.0\, which will affect U.S. Government contractors and private sector stakeholders. \n\nSpeaker: Todd Hinson – Constellation Energy \nMr. Todd Hinson is a Cybersecurity Contracts Principal with Constellation Energy in Baltimore\, Maryland. \nTodd began his career in the U.S. Army Intelligence Corp as part of Electronic Warfare Operations in Europe before becoming a U.S. Government Contractor with Contel and GTE serving at the Pentagon-JCS\, NSA-HQ\, DIA-HQ\, and in South Korea with the Korean Intelligence Support System (KISS).  After having taken a sabbatical to raise five children (two sets of twins)\, Todd returned to U.S. federal service with the DOJ/U.S. Attorneys Office-Baltimore\, followed by stints with “Top-10” international Banking and Finance law firms Weil\, Gotshal & Manges and Allen & Overy in Washington\, D.C. during the fall-out from the 2007-2008 Global Financial Crisis.  Todd has also served the Office of General Counsel of the American Bankers Association\, T. Rowe Price\, Exelon Corporation\, and currently Constellation Energy. \nTodd’s Cybersecurity professional development began with NOC and Data Center operations\, then diverted into Law and Banking from a systems resiliency perspective\, and has returned to the assurance of Information Confidentiality\, Integrity\, and Availability (CIA) within Supply-Chain and Third-Party contracts\, after having completed his M.S. in Engineering (Cybersecurity Policy & Compliance) from The George Washington University in 2021. \nLinkedIn Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/todd-hinson-05607534 \n\nClick Here to register for the December 14\, 2022 ISSA Membership Meeting.

DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: Membership Meeting\, November 16\, 2022 \nSpeaker Slides: 2022-11-16-Cyber-CSI-Ford \nMeeting Recording: November 16\, 2022 Membership Meeting and Speaker Recording \n\nTopic: CSI:Cyber – What did they get wrong and right? \nIn 2015\, CBS launched the 4th spin-off of the original CSI TV show called CSI:Cyber. The show focused on an FBI unit that worked to solve various cyber-crimes such as theft\, hacking\, extortion and even murder. The series lasted only two seasons and quickly became a running joke among the cyber security community due to outlandish\, impossible\, and unrealistic scenarios. However\, the show got some things right which we will talk about and explore things that just didn’t quite hit the mark in an episode from season 2.\n\n\nSpeaker: Rebecca Ford \nRebecca Ford is a senior cyber threat intelligence analyst at a Fortune 50 Media & Entertainment company where she built and runs their cyber threat intelligence program. Rebecca has over 15 years of experience in cyber security and intel working for the US government as a North Korea cyber subject matter expert and is now in the private sector focusing on cyber threats targeting the media & entertainment business\, retail and hospitality\, cruise lines and theme parks.\nWhen Rebecca isn’t studying cyber criminal activity\, she and her husband like walking their French Bulldog FiFi\, volunteering at veteran transition organizations\, and working on puzzles.

DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: October 26\, 2022 ISSA Central MD Membership Meeting \nISSA International Welcome: ISSA Chapter Welcome 2022 Dr. Murray \nSpeaker Slides: S3_GSG_ACTIVE SHOOTER PREPAREDNESS_2022 \nMeeting Recording: October 26\, 2022 Membership Meeting and Speaker Recording \n\nTopic: Active Shooter/Assailant Preparedness for Business and Schools \nThe world seems to have gotten more intense and scarier since the pandemic started in early 2020. Although we have seemed to have come back to some sense of normalcy in 2022\, there is also a cloud of uncertainty and fear that has even the best of us feeling vaguely unsettled. Unfortunately\, this type of social environment can breed the worst type of criminal mind; a psychopathic one\, that has rationalized people unlike them\, or because of “them” have to die. This means that these cowardly and mentally disturbed individuals may attack areas of our society that National Security experts deem as “soft targets”\, that being grocery stores\, malls\, retail businesses\, and community organizations such as schools and parks. What can we do to defend against the unthinkable? What this conversation will propose are well-thought-out tactical and strategic methodologies borne from anti-terrorism\, force protection\, and the intelligence community; to help everyday business people and citizens prepare for an Active Shooter/Assailant when necessary. \nSpeaker: Bobby Sheppard\, S3 Global Security Group LLC  (S3 GSG)  \nMr. Bobby L. Sheppard delivers over 26 years of combined experience in law enforcement\, intelligence\, and cybersecurity. For the last 17 years\, Mr. Sheppard has worked within the intelligence community\, serving as a Team Leader\, Senior Intelligence Analyst\, and Program Coordinator\, providing Counterterrorism/Counterintelligence and Cyber Threat Intelligence analysis\, and operations in support of highly classified missions abroad and at home. Prior to Mr. Sheppard’s serving within the Intelligence Community\, he served as a federal law enforcement officer and Executive Protection agent for 9 years with the U.S. CAPITOL POLICE AND CIA respectively. Mr. Sheppard has received extensive training and experience in Anti-terrorism/Force Protection\, surveillance\, counter-surveillance\, surveillance detection\, Incident Management Response; CBRN detection and response; as well as COOP AND COG operations for federal government entities to include the Department of Homeland Security. \n\n

DESCRIPTION:The August ISSA membership meeting is sponsored by:\n \nClick Here to register for the August 24\, 2022 ISSA Membership Meeting. \nChapter Business Meeting Slides: 2022-08-24 Membership Meeting Slides \nSpeaker Slides: 2202-08-24 Supply Chain Security \n\nTopic: Supply Chain Security: Preventing Second Hand or Counterfeit Computing Device Components \nIncreasingly\, large enterprise customers are requiring Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) and/or Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) to show demonstrable proof that they have a secure supply chain. These manufacturers must prove\, through controlled\, documented\, and audited means\, that their supply chain ecosystem is secure throughout the product development lifecycle (pre-manufacturing through product end-of-life.) This legitimate concern is based on the growing threat posed by second hand or counterfeit computing device components. Disruptions in supply chains and the possible introduction of counterfeit components can increase risks to the proper functioning and overall reliability of electronic devices. Even worse\, such contaminated platforms may include malware that could potentially lead to data theft or other types of system compromise. To prevent this\, organizations should only partner with technology vendors that provide verifiable proof that their products are free of second hand or counterfeit components. To do so\, a manufacturer should be able to trace serial numbers or similar identifiers that are stamped or embedded on hardware during downstream manufacturing. For software components\, these manufacturers should work with their software vendors to ensure that only accurate\, non-counterfeit software is ever installed on their products. \nSpeaker: Kevin McPeak\, Deputy Director within the Lenovo Chief Security Office \n\nKevin McPeak\, CISSP\, ITILv3 is a Deputy Director within the Lenovo Chief Security Office. Kevin is a technical SME for endpoint management\, endpoint security\, data loss prevention\, encryption\, mobile device app management\, secure mobile content delivery\, and new defensive technologies.

DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: 2022-03-22 Meeting Slides \nSpeaker’s Recording: Zoom Meeting Recording – Speaker Recording \n\nMeeting Sponsor Presentation: ASPG-Sponsor-Presentation-2022-03-22.pdf \nTopic: Human Security Engineering: Stop Relying on the Failed Human Firewall \nWhile the main perception is that the “user problem” is due to a malicious party trying to trick well intentioned users\, users who are unaware\, apathetic\, careless\, etc.\, are more likely to be the cause of loss. Either way\, the cybersecurity industry realizes this and develops tactics such as awareness\, MFA\, DLP\, etc. to mitigate the problem. Despite all of these tactics\, 90%+ of all losses result from attacks targeting users. What this talk proposes is a comprehensive strategy to address the insider threat\, whether it results from malicious or well meaning insiders. \nSpeaker: Ira Winkler\, Chief Security Architect for Walmart  \n\nIra Winkler\, CISSP is Chief Security Architect for Walmart and author of You Can Stop Stupid. He is considered one of the world’s most influential security professionals\, and has been named a “Modern Day James Bond” by the media. He did this by performing espionage simulations\, where he physically and technically “broke into” some of the largest companies in the World and investigating crimes against them\, and telling them how to cost effectively protect their information and computer infrastructure. He continues to perform these espionage simulations\, as well as assisting organizations in developing cost effective security programs. Ira also won the Hall of Fame award from the Information Systems Security Association\, as well as several other prestigious industry awards. CSO Magazine named Ira a CSO Compass Award winner as The Awareness Crusader. Most recently\, Ira was named 2021 Top Cybersecurity Leader by Security Magazine. \nClick Here to register for the March 23\, 2022 ISSA Membership Meeting.

Space systems support critical functions including navigation\, communications\, agriculture\, financial exchange\, and emergency services. Current and emerging markets for space services range from GPS and broadband connectivity to environmental monitoring and on-orbit manufacturing. \nThe volume of data travelling across information systems in satellite\, ground\, and user segments continues to escalate due to a range of factors and trends\, including the commercialization of space with the transportation of cargo\, experiments\, and payload; human space flight; resupply to the International Space Station; Space as a Service (SaaS) and Ground Station as a Service (GSaaS); and the push to the moon and Mars. \nAdversaries seek to exploit vulnerabilities and threats across this increased threat plane through unauthorized access\, malware\, denial of service\, supply chain\, and other opportunities. Guidance\, best practices\, and a defense-in-depth approach to protecting and securing data and information is a key priority and continues to evolve in the government and commercial sector to outpace the threat. \n\nSpeaker: Lori Gordon\, Aerospace Corporation \nLori Gordon is a senior project engineer and technology strategist in the Corporate Chief Engineer’s Office at The Aerospace Corporation\, focusing on Space Enterprise Integration (SEI) and Space Enterprise Risk (SER) to cyber and physical infrastructure.

Most of this comes from different technology manufacturers marketing their products as the solution to Zero Trust. While all of them play some part in an overall Zero Trust journey\, there is no platform which provides a full Zero Trust solution. \nOptiv’s opinion is that Zero Trust is a not a destination\, but instead a continual journey that provides a broader systematic approach to help clients demystify the complexities of Zero Trust. \nSpeaker: John Humenick\, Cybersecurity and Business Risk\,  Optiv  \nJohn is based in the Philadelphia region and has been working the IT industry for over 20 years. During that time\, he has covered system integration\, coding and development\, virtualization\, and more recently cybersecurity and business risk. He has worked as a Solutions Architect at Optiv for the last five years and is a graduate of Penn State. \n
