President’s Message, By Lisa Slotznick
Cyber, one of the Academy’s mega issues for the year, affects all of us due to the pervasive nature of information technology that connects us in our daily transactions.
Various manifestations of information technology—such as phones, computers, email, physical security systems with alarms, and digital security systems with firewalls—interconnect our lives. This interconnected world, in many ways, is a boon—it makes life easier. However, our cyber world can be intimidating because of the opportunities it provides for the “bad guys”—malicious actors intent on doing real harm—to exploit both individuals and businesses by unlawfully manipulating technology for their gain.
