For 2023, we selected “Building a Secure Community” as the theme for the Summit. Given the escalation of cyber attacks and incidents, we want to bring our community together to brainstorm and stress the need for collaboration to safeguard our digital spaces and combat cyber threats. The Summit’s goal is to share expertise and knowledge about tools and services that promote a more secure and resilient community, and combat the risks associated with cyber threats affecting all critical infrastructure sectors and our society as a whole.

What Attendees Say

I especially enjoyed the presentation by the student employees and how some of the University of Oregon students in the audience were excited about possibly working at the University.

Great format and I found “fireside chat with CISA director” to be an excellent session, enjoyed the Q&A from the audience.

I would recommend this program to others because of the wide range of topics covered in such a short time. There was a session for everyone.

I learned how vulnerable networks are to zero-day events, and I learned that CISA provides a tremendous number of services.

Great collaboration and networking opportunity, also a great space to learn from others.

The information was both timely and useful and the speakers were excellent. I really appreciated the strategic overview of current actors and threat landscape.

I would recommend this program to others. Great opportunity to enhance your understanding of cybersecurity issues.

It was very insightful and gave me a larger picture of how security relates to my work.

I learned a tremendous amount and became ever more aware of the innumerable threats we face.

There is nobody in the local community that is NOT impacted by issues being discussed at the Summit.
