Approach that to please not quietly southern remember seeing adult puppy development; and basic advanced obedience. Executive Panel ECHOLS: Mr. La Vigna, Director of Operations for the NCTFA-I'm sorry-NCFTA. And then Mr. Visner, Co-Chair of the R&D Task Force. ECHOLS: Thank you very much. thank you, panelists, for being here. First, I'd like to go to Mr. Riggi to give you opportunity to make a couple of statements. RIGGI: Sure. Thank you, First of all, I'd like to thank you, and DHS for graciously inviting myself and the FBI to participate this very, very important conversation. Before I begin, can I just have a show of hands, how folks we have actually from the private sector, nongovernment folks? Good. More than I thought. Excellent. somewhat echoing General Touhill's comments about the need for information sharing and the FBI and law enforcement general, Secret Service and our partners at DHS, we understand that to prevent crime, solve crime, we need the public's assistance, and over the years, to combat, whether it was drug trafficking, trafficking, organized crime, violent crime, even bank fraud, we were very active working with the private sector, financial community, to establish outreach programs and to garner those, as General Touhill mentioned, the cyber-hood-the neighborhood-type watch programs. Well, that was the physical world, and as General Touhill said, we need the same the virtual world because those crimes, those acts are occurring on private networks. As you know, they're not occurring on the streets, the homes, the physical world. And the FBI, we have several programs beyond our individual community outreach programs, which are run by our field offices, that strive for that effective community outreach. On a national level, we have what's called the InfraGard program. It's kind of two words combined, infrastructure and guard, but the guard is g-a-r-d, and that consists of 36 individual members. It's not organizational, organizational based. Bottom line, you just have to be a U.S. citizen and not have any criminal history. You can be a member of InfraGard, and that's spread out through 83 chapters across the United States. Some of those chapters are very active and have developed their own cyber special interest groups along with other special interest groups. And of course, there's, organically developed over the years, certain cybersecurity information sharing groups that we promote, support, participate including the NCFTA, who Vello is here from, National Cyber Training and Forensic Alliance SERINO: And we have about-had-we have about 200 lawyers are FEMA and had someone who got to Yes and figured a way that we had private sector representatives the National Response Coordination Center within 3 months, and we had that, developing the team, and then from that, we built the ability to have them there for 3 months at a time. We had started with Target and then and all the different sectors. outreach of that for a year later, we had something developed called the NBEOC, the National Business Emergency Operations Center, and during a crisis, that was stood up. And there were over 500-plus companies that can be part of that, that they actually share information that make a difference people's lives during emergency. It's whether it's able to have Wal-Mart send water or food, whether it's smaller companies to understand what's going on and how they can help protect themselves during whether it's Super Storm whether it's during tornadoes, during whatever the emergency is. it really helps make a difference. And now that I've been at Harvard for just under a year now-and at Harvard, with NPLI, the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative, we actually looked at the response to the Boston Marathon bombing, and fortunately or unfortunately, role as the Deputy Administrator, I was actually Boston at the marathon that day after having been the incident commander for the marathon for years. looking at the leadership response to that, it actually struck, listening to the earlier speakers, that the response to that was done very well, and you ask who was charge at that event. And the answer was, if you talk to the governor, talk to the mayor, you talk to the head of the FBI at the time, who was the special agent charge-you talk to the police commissioner-not going to say any one person was charge. It was a shared network of folks, and it was shared because people trusted each other, people had relationships with each other, people had a common sense of mission, and there was no ego and no blame during that period of time for the response during the week. And hearing those four things that the people who studied it came up with very much fit with almost the four things that people mentioned here today: that you need to have trust, a common message, doing this for the common good, and understanding that having those relationships a crisis truly make a difference. I'll stop there. ECHOLS: All right. there should be no question why you're here now. That's exactly the message that we're trying to promote. La VIGNA: Hello. name is La Vigna. I'm the Director of Operations for the NCFTA, the National Cyber-Forensics and Training
