INET DC : CYBERSECURITY AND THE FUTURE OF THE INTERNET

The Internet Society and the Cyber Security Policy and Research Institute of George Washington University invite you to join us on Wednesday, July 24 at George Washington University for an in depth panel and roundtable of industry experts on Surveillance, Cybersecurity and the Future of the Internet. In light of the recent disclosure of the U.S. National Security Agency's (NSA) PRISM Program, we felt this to be a vital and timely discussion among experts and stakeholders to focus attention on what this revelation means for the future of the internet and its sustainability. Don't miss out on being a part of this important conversation.
