Leading Expert on Cyber Security to Appear at Symposium VI

Scott Borg, CEO of US Cyber Consequences Unit (USCCU) has agreed to address attendees at Symposium VI in October.  Quotes from Mr. Borg are appearing more and more in  articles and news reports of cyber attacks and the growth of cyber threats to homeland security, especially with the Russian-Georgia conflict so prominent in today's headlines.
 He will speak on October 29, 2008, at the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs.
"Cyber attacks represent great security risks to our society and our economy.  We must increase our vigilance and strengthen our defense against this insidious threat that can and does come from anywhere," said Don Addy, President of The National Homeland Defense Foundation (NHDF), host of Symposium VI.  "Scott Borg and USCCU  are at the vanguard of our nation's efforts to increase security.  We are honored to have him appear at Symposium VI, a critical part of NHDF's goal to convene the nation's leading public forum on homeland defense and security," said Addy.
Other critical issues being discussed at Symposium VI include The Future of Terrorism, Intelligence Efforts to Secure our Homeland, Critical Infrastructure Protection,  and International Collaboration on Homeland Defense and Security.
USCCU and NHDF are non-profit organizations.  Symposium VI is being held Oct. 28-30,
2008 at the Broadmoor Hotel, Colorado Springs, CO.  For more information, visit www.nhdf.org
