As a new Administration assumes the responsibilities of governing and protecting the American people, the U.S. Intelligence Community and its allied partners are faced with the imperative of ensuring that intelligence capabilities can anticipate and respond to new and existing threats to national security today and in the future. At a time of unprecedented and varied threats, and with the intriguing cyber domain evolving at an explosive pace, we are at an appropriate juncture for a public examination of what is working well and how the IC needs to adapt to meet the challenges ahead.
AFCEA International and the Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA) are pleased to host the fourth annual Intelligence and National Security Summit to provide the platform for this public discussion of US Intelligence’s challenges and opportunities in this year of transition, challenge, and innovation. The two-day Summit features five plenary sessions during which leaders of U.S. Intelligence and allied partners will offer their assessments of these issues. In addition, in nine breakout sessions thought leaders from the public and private sectors will explore enduring and emerging issues that will influence the IC in the future in nine breakout sessions.
