It seems that cyberspace is under constant attack.
As the world’s infrastructure becomes increasingly grounded on the Internet for commerce and communication, the consequences of these attacks become more ominous. Worse still, the perpetrators are usually invisible and difficult to trace, be they individuals or state ac...tors, and they often carry out their attacks remotely with a worldwide network of hijacked personal computers.

Corporations, nonprofits, governments, and others all have a stake in the self-maintaining organism that is the Internet with no one entity in overall control. So, how do we defend ourselves and our economy? And can we do so in a way that balances cyber security, privacy, civil liberties, and innovation?

Join us to find out what you should know about the safety and security of cyberspace.

Program will be followed by a light reception.

Alumni and Guests: $15
Current BU Students: Complimentary
