Cyber Intelligence Professional
The webinar reviews the elements of cyber intelligence and how they are applied in the commercial and government space. The webinar develops an understanding of fundamentals and the integration of those fundamentals and the strategic, operational and tactical considerations required to implement a program. – taught by Charles Chen, the Director of Artificial Intelligence at U.S. Department of State.Technology Underpinning Cyber Intelligence will begin by introducing the main principles of cryptography and data security. Next you will learn about distributed ledgers, cryptocurrencies and reverse engineering. We will discuss what enables a country to become a cyber leader and have the capability for state sponsored terrorism, cyber conflict and cyber warfare. Learn about the Cloud and IoT (the Internet of Things) and why this improves an adversary’s opportunities to cause trouble. Finally, what can be done to mitigate this increased risk.

Artificial Intelligence
Discussion of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, and practical examples of how this technology is used. – Charles Pfaff has had an extensive career and research interests including advising on cyber, regional military affairs, security cooperation, military ethics, and the Middle East.This virtual seminar will provide a fundamental understanding of how artificial intelligence and cyber tools will affect the global battlefield in the years to come. The seminar will begin by exploring the current status of artificial intelligence technology, the published cyber capabilities of international actors, and the current United States cyber strategy. Then the seminar will take a look at the projected abilities of artificial intelligence and its implications for warfare, based on released statements by both the private sector and government actors.

Cyber Terrorism
Learn about Cyber Terrorism based on thorough knowledge of both practitioners and scholars of the subject matter – taught by Paul M. Davis is Vice President of Government Business Development at SecureDAM and Founder and President of JANUS Think.
The primary purpose of this program is to be able to effectively provide national security and cyber intelligence professionals with a better understanding of cyber terrorism by compiling and extracting sound knowledge from scholars of the subject in an effort to analyze an appropriate, comprehensive definition of cyber terrorism. The webinar addresses motive, means, and opportunity as it applies to the use of cyber to cause terror and undermine national security. The program will also cover collections and cyber tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by cyber terrorists, where bits and bytes could cause loss of life and destruction of critical infrastructure.

Enterprise Threat Modeling
This webinar will address Enterprise Threat Modeling from a broad policy and strategic level and then dive into the operational level where risk management has many components – taught by Charles Chen, the Director of Artificial Intelligence at U.S. Department of State.This virtual seminar will examine the concepts, techniques, and primary goals of threat modeling. The course will introduce the value of techniques and strategies within threat modeling and will complete an exercise to understand and implement a threat model based on the data and information collected. Threat models and techniques that will be introduced include: understanding the goals and strategic perspective in using threat models on an Enterprise System, a basic conceptual understanding of cybersecurity and data protection, a general understanding of the impact of data compromise from a statecraft and/or global perspective, and the primary goals of threat modeling.

Counterintelligence Cyber Technology
Learn the main principles of cryptography to build a solid foundation, taught by – Paul M. Davis is Vice President of Government Business Development at SecureDAM and Founder and President of JANUS Think.
The seminar will cover some of the major technical pillars that rest on this foundation, including financial technology, Big Data, and Machine Learning. The seminar will later dive deeply into digital currencies and digital ledgers, computer viruses, Malware, and automation. The seminar will tie all this knowledge into a heuristic overview of the cyber intelligence industry, its major public and private players, and how they collaboratively work together to form defensive and, in some cases, offensive capabilities.

Virtual Skills Analysis
Develop analytic skills in accordance with the standards and practices currently in use in the intelligence community – taught by Brian Lane, a Subject Matter Expert (SME) with more than fifteen years of experience in the maritime and intelligence communities.
Vital Skills Analysis (VSA) introduces students to the skills required to conduct all-source cyber intelligence analysis, with emphasis on predictive techniques. It begins by introducing students to the basic principles of intelligence analysis, and then how those principles are applied using practical assignments. Students will select open-source cyber topics, research the information, and learn to write assessments. Through this methodology, students will apply the skills learned, gain experience writing one-page assessments, quick briefing of senior leaders, and defending their work. VSA serves as a common foundation for developing analytic skills in accordance with the standards and practices currently in use in the intelligence community.

International Law Governing Cyber Operations
This session is rich with information regarding what is legal when conducting cyber operations and distinguishes between legal and morally correct.– taught by Ethan Burger, a Washington D.C.- based international attorney and educator with a background in cybersecurity, transnational financial crime, and Russian legal matters.
This virtual seminar on "Introduction to the International Law Governing Cyber Operations" will address the international law appropriate to the evolving frontier of offensive cyber capabilities. In particular, the course is designed with an emphasis on Russian cyber activity and subsequent U.S. policy debates and responses. As the course progresses, students will be challenged and grapple with defining standards for the behavior of states in cyberspace that is in line with international law. Subsequently, students will examine tension areas in U.S.-Russian relations and learn how cyber capabilities affect interstate issues, both old and new.
