“Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director Christopher Krebs will be presenting “Election Security: Securing America’s Future“, a detailed rundown of how CISA is leading the federal effort to support state and local officials in their important mission to secure U.S. elections in 2020,” according to Black Hat 2020 organizers.
“This is a great example of the kind of practical, timely cybersecurity insights you can only get at Black Hat. Federal, state, local and private sector partners have been building up defenses since 2017 in preparation for the 2020 elections; as the reckoning draws nigh and the COVID-19 pandemic brings its own difficulties, Krebs plans to show you how CISA has had to quickly adapt and provide support and resources as officials look for safe, healthy and secure ways to ensure that elections continue to take place!”
Safeguarding the conference’s network means protecting it from nearly 19,000 people who could try to hack it
