Public-Private Partnership: The ISP Role in Fighting Malware

Tuesday, October 4, 2011 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
B1 Conference CenterCenter for Strategic and International Studies1800 K Street, NWWashington DC, 20006

The CSIS Technology and Public Policy Program cordially invites you to a watch live a discussion of:

"Public-Private Partnership: The ISP Role in Fighting Malware"   

Opening Remarks:
Howard Schmidt, Cybersecurity Coordinator for the Obama Administration

Keynote Address:
Cameron Kerry, General Counsel, U.S. Department of Commerce
Michael O’Reirdan, Chairman, Messaging Anti-Abuse Working Group

Panel Discussion:
James Barnett, Jr., Chief, Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, Federal Communications Commission (invited)
Kate Dean, Executive Director, U.S. Internet Service Provider Association (invited)
Bruce McConnell, Counselor to the Deputy Under Secretary for National Protection and Programs Directorate, U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Ari Schwartz, Internet Policy Advisor, National Institute of Standards and Technology
Maxim Weinstein, President & Executive Director, StopBadware

Moderated by:
James A. Lewis, Director and Senior Fellow, CSIS Technology and Public Policy Program 

The event will mark the launch of the new U.S. Department of Commerce and U.S. Department of Homeland Security effort to promote the creation of a voluntary industry code of conduct to address the detection, notification, and mitigation of botnets.  Over the past several years, botnets have increasingly put computer owners at risk. A botnet infection can lead to the monitoring of a consumer’s personal information and communication, and exploitation of that consumer’s computing power and Internet access. Networks of these compromised computers are often used to disseminate spam, to store and transfer illegal content, and to attack the servers of government and private entities with massive, distributed denial of service attacks. The Departments seek public comment from all Internet stakeholders, including the commercial, academic, and civil society sectors, on potential models for detection, notification, prevention, and mitigation of botnets’ illicit use of computer equipment.

A full-text copy of the document is available here.

We hope you will be able to join us for this timely and informative discussion.  Please RSVP to nfilipiak@csis.org
