The Cyber Security Student Working Group and the MIIS Cyber Initiative are hosting a Speaker Series with guest speaker Chris Finan. He will draw on his experience from the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the National Security Council staff, DARPA and Silicon Valley to discuss the current state of federal cybersecurity, including key agency roles and responsibilities, authorities and policy challenges, examine the challenges of deterrence in cyberspace, and conclude with considerations for the future of cyber-enabled conflict.

The Cyber Security Working Group will hold bi-monthly meetings. It is open to all CSWG members and those interested in cyber policy issues. The CSWG works closely with the Cyber Initiative to ensure that MIIS students receive cyber policy focused content, i.e. classes, workshops, speakers, and activities. Location: Casa Fuente 438A (VO Center)

The rise of ubiquitous encryption helps protect privacy, economic, and national security interests. At the same time, encryption presents a challenge to the investigatory capabilities of law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad. Relatedly, U.S. law enforcement undertakes “lawful hacking” operations to investigate criminal suspects. These measures are controversial, in part because of their potential for extraterritorial impact on machines outside American law enforcement’s jurisdiction.

The CSWG’s club meeting will cover club activities and the issues/topics club members would like the the club to support.

Join the Cyber-Security Working Group at Cibo Ristorante downtown for a happy hour! All majors welcome! Come join us in discussing CySec related issues.

Learning to manage difficult people is critical for personal and professional success. However, in order to effectively deal with a difficult person, we must understand, our own personal communication style, which influences how we perceive and respond to different personality types. Participation in this workshop will help deepen participants’ self awareness and empathy in interactions with difficult classmates, colleagues, coworkers, clients, managers and family members, and teach techniques for avoiding potential and unnecessary conflict.
