Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

The narratives around AI and Cybersecurity are the modern day Choose-Your-Own-Adventure: turn to page 10 and AI is solving many of today’s cyber problems and ushering in a new era of strong privacy protections and digital security. But turn to page 20 and AI is instead empowering attackers to overwhelm defenses and undermine the digital foundations of our national and economic security. As with most extremes the truth will lie somewhere in the middle, but just where it lands will have major consequences to governments, companies, and individuals. Join us on January 16 to learn where cyber and AI experts believe we are headed, as well as what you and your organization can do to steer towards the right direction.
We are joined by:
Ben Buchanan, Special Advisor on Artificial Intelligence, White House
George Barnes, Former Deputy Director, National Security Agency
Bobbie Stempfley, Vice President and Business Unit Security Officer, Dell Technologies
Jonathan W. Welburn, Senior Research, RAND Corporation
Amanda Walker, Senior Director, Engineering – Security, Privacy, and Safety, Google
Jane Horvath, Partner, Gibson Dunn
Katie Brooks, Director, Global Cybersecurity Policy, Aspen Digital
Yameen Huq, Director, U.S. Cybersecurity Group, Aspen Digital
Jeff Greene, Senior Director, Cybersecurity Programs, Aspen Digital
