                         The State of Cybersecurity
                         Thursday, December 6, 2001

                       Panel Forum - 6:30 - 7:30 p.m.
            Cocktail reception & technology displays - 7:30 p.m.

   LECTURE PANELISTS:

   Moderator: Declan McCullagh, Wired News Washington bureau chief
   Tim Belcher, CTO and co-founder of Riptech
   Richard Forno, CTO, Shadowlogic
   Christopher Painter, Deputy Chief of the Computer Crime and
   Intellectual Property Section at the Department of Justice
   Mark Rasch, VP of Cyberlaw, Predictive Systems

   TALKING POINTS: Lloyds of London estimates that the Love Bug virus
   cost the world $15 billion, and security experts say that we're on
   track to have twice as many security incidents this year as last. And
   with the attacks of September 11, there is a new realization that
   critical networks could be the focus of terrorist attacks.

   What do businesses and personal computer users really need to be
   worried about? And what are the best ways for the public and private
   sectors to protect themselves, whether from sophisticated cyberattack
   or the latest Love Bug? These issues and more will be discussed when a
   panel of cybersecurity experts gather for the next CyberCocktail
   lecture.

There has been much excitement concerning e-government recently, but
where do things really stand?

make government more efficient, and legislation has been introduced at
the Congressional level to bolster the idea. It is now time for
Americans to consider the pros and cons of e-government. Panelists will
discuss how the Internet could make government more efficient and what
potential pitfalls should be avoided. Join the Pacific Research
Institute and TechNet in exploring the many issues surrounding
e-government.
