SUMMARY:The Law of Cybersecurity: A Multidisciplinary Perspective
DESCRIPTION:To watch videos of the conference please click below: \nPanel 1: Cybersecurity and the Private Sector\nPanel 2: Cybersecurity Investigations\nPanel 3: The Law and Strategy of Cyber Conflict\nPanel 4: Looking Ahead: Changes in the Cybersecurity Landscape  \nSeptember 19\, 2014 \n8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. \nGreenberg Lounge \n40 Washington Square South \nNYU School of Law \n  \nKeynote Address: Brigadier General Patricia Frost\, U.S. Army Cyber Command \nPanel I: Cybersecurity and the Private Sector \n\nJudi Germano\, Center on Law and Security\, NYU School of Law\nLeonard Bailey\, U.S. Department of Justice\nRandal Milch\, General Counsel\, Verizon Communications\nDaniel Weitzner\, Massachusetts Institute of Technology\nMichael Vatis\, Steptoe & Johnson\n\nPanel II: Cybersecurity Investigations \n\nAndrew Weissmann\, Center on Law and Security\, NYU School of Law\nDavid Bitkower\, U.S. Department of Justice\nSteve Vladeck\, American University Washington College of Law\nBill Banks\, Syracuse University College of Law\nDavid Szuchman\, Manhattan District Attorney’s Office\n\nPanel III: The Law and Strategy of Cyber Conflict \n\nMatt Waxman\, Columbia Law School\nGary Brown\, International Committee of the Red Cross\nHerbert Lin\, The National Academies\nRyan Goodman\, NYU School of Law\nJaan Priisalu\, Director General\, Estonian Information System Authority\n\nPanel IV: Looking Ahead: Changes in the Cybersecurity Landscape \n\nHarvey Rishikof\, American Bar Association\, Standing Committee on Law & National Security\nSteven Bellovin\, Columbia University\nElizabeth Rindskopf Parker\, Center on Law and Security\, NYU School of Law\nPaul Rosenzweig\, Red Branch Consulting\, The Chertoff Group\n\n\n7 New York CLE credits will be awarded. \nThe study\, practice\, and teaching of cybersecurity is inherently interdisciplinary\, implicating disparate bodies of legal and non-legal expertise.  The questions of law and policy involved in guarding against cyberthreats are so varied because the threats themselves take on many forms\, including: attacks on critical infrastructure perpetrated by foreign governments or terrorist organizations; theft of trade secrets or significant intellectual property by state-linked or other entities; traditional espionage conducted by foreign intelligence services; “insider” threats from corporate or government employees; cybercrime that results in the theft of valuable financial information like credit card data; cybercrime that leads to identity theft in furtherance of other offenses; “hacktivism\,” denial of service attacks\, and other forms of cyber-vandalism; and many others.  These threats target different vulnerabilities and demand different responses from government and the private sector. \nAt the same time\, uncertainty about the rights and obligations (both statutory and constitutional) of private and public actors have clouded the legal landscape governing cybersecurity.  Future generations of lawyers called upon to address cybersecurity challenges will\, therefore\, need to become fluent in a wide range of legal and non-legal languages.  The 2014 “Lawyer Jurga\,” co-hosted by the Center on Law and Security at NYU School of Law and the ABA Standing Committee on Law and National Security\, will convene leading scholars and practitioners to address cutting-edge issues in cyberlaw from a multidisciplinary perspective.  It aims to inform legal academics about the wide range of legal issues they will confront in teaching about cybersecurity\, and to assist practitioners in refining the expertise necessary to advise clients effectively.

SUMMARY:Guardian or Big Brother?: The NSA Data Sweeps
DESCRIPTION:Ongoing disclosures about the extent of NSA communication monitoring have sparked numerous headlines—and almost as many questions. Should an American care\, for example\, that the NSA may log the time and duration of a phone call he or she makes to a cousin in Boise or Bangalore? As we seek to balance national security and civil liberties\, what should we fear most—continuation of the surveillance operations or their constriction? Is the data monitoring lawful? Should we have better oversight? \nTo watch the recording of the event\, please click here \nPANELISTS: \n\nSteven G.
