What is the Oregon Cyber Resilience Summit?

The Oregon Cyber Resilience Summit (OCRS) was first introduced in 2018 and every Summit aligns its content under the umbrella of a common theme that brings together attendees, speakers, and sponsors. Multiple industries and sectors are represented, including federal, state, and local governments, information technology (IT) partners and vendors, K-12, and higher education (both employees and students), financial, and power and electric — a true community convergence!

Cyber threats represent some of the most significant challenges to our national security, economic system, and way of life. Cyber risks affect all sectors: critical infrastructure, power and energy, banking, higher education, and many more. The interconnectedness and interdependence among all sectors of our community cause cyber incidents in one area to affect the whole community. Consequently, it is paramount that we work together to defend our cyber "things."

Every year, we build on the success of previous OCRS events by continuing to embrace the “whole community” approach, bringing together the private and public sectors, owners and operators, cybersecurity experts, students, and community members to network and train together to defend our infrastructure from cyber threats.

Who Attends the Summit?

Over the years, people from multiple industries and sectors have participated in OCRS, including federal, state, and local governments, information technology (IT) partners and vendors, K-12, and higher education (both employees and students), financial, and power and electric — a true community convergence!

In addition, the summit is beneficial for individuals in the following positions from educational institutions and any of the 16 DHS/CISA critical infrastructure sectors:   

Cybersecurity, information technology (IT), and IT audit leaders, including chief information security officers (CISOs), chief information officers (CIOs), chief technology officers (CTOs), chief audit executives (CAEs), directors, managers, and supervisors.

Other cybersecurity, IT, and IT audit professionals.

Emergency response leaders and professionals.

University and community college students, faculty, and staff.
