- Which PPPs models are working and which initiatives have been the most challenging and why?
- What International policies should be implemented to align our global allies against the adversaries?

4:00 PM - 4:50 PM Panel: Security, Privacy and Risk Considerations in a Social Networked World
Social Networking is introducing an enigmatic riddle in the already paradoxical relationship between Security and Privacy. More privacy requires more security; more security can mean less privacy. Consumer's insatiable appetite for greater sharing and connectivity through social networking is counterbalanced by the fundamental need for privacy protection. From the opening shots of the information leaking battles of 2010, to the cyber battles of tomorrow, we ask the fundamental question "How do we protect ourselves... from ourselves."

4:50 PM - 5:40 PM Panel: Security Trade-Offs and Opportunities in Cloud Computing
The cloud is clearly the next paradigm in computing. How will security be realized in the Cloud? How will Security be delivered from the cloud? Are we individually and in aggregate more secure in the cloud? What is impeding catastrophe in the cloud that many pundits talk about and is it real? What is privacy in the cloud and why does the next generation really care? These and other pressing questions will be addressed by a panel of cloud experts.
