1. Fighting the Cyber War With Battlefield Tactics – Jeremy Miller, Philip Niedermair – PSW #649
Jeremy Miller, a retired Green Beret and current CEO of Lionfish Cyber Security, will discuss how mission set tactics used by Special Forces can be applied directly to the cyber war being waged today. These mission sets are very relevant for the front line of cybersecurity professionals, who are the next generation of Special Operation forces. These are the men and women that protect our country, our businesses and our families. Approaching the cyber war with this mindset, Miller is re-aligning how cybersecurity in small to medium sized businesses is structured. His team plans to be a force multiplier for SMBs by bundling resources and capabilities into an affordable security platform, making cyber security more a strength than a weakness for these organizations.
