7:00 AM – 8:00 AM

Check-in, Networking Breakfast and IoT Innovation Showcase

 8:00 AM – 8:10 AM

Welcome & Opening Remarks

• Nick Nilan, Chair, IoT Working Group, AFCEA Washington, DC, Chapter

 8:10 AM – 8:45 AM

Morning Keynote

• John Pellegrino, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Strategic Integration), U.S. Army

 8:45 AM – 9:45 AM

Panel 1 – Sensing the Battlespace

• Shawn Ahmed, Senior Director, Analytics and IoT, Splunk Inc.
• Maj Scott Cuomo, Marine Air-Ground Task Force Operational Planner and Ground Combat Element Integration Officer, Marine Corps Aviation, U.S. Marine Corps
• Robert Palmer, Deputy Chief Technology Officer, Office of the Chief Technology Office/Office of the Chief Information Office, Department of Homeland Security
• Gregory Rudy, Director, Business Development, INTEGRITY Security Services, Green Hills Software
• Wolf Tombe, Chief Technology Officer, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security

This panel will highlight the challenges, pain points and potential needs associated with the introduction and modernization of IoT devices – embedded or otherwise – such as:

• How to move toward faster and more autonomous OODA loops (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) using IoT
• What does IoT mean in a tactical environment – wearables, vehicle sensors, unmanned moving sensors, unmanned non-moving sensors, other
• How does current technology evolve into IoT
• How can IoT provide better situational awareness in the battlespace.

 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM

Panel 2 - Sustaining the Mission

• Moderator: Neal Andrew, Senior Solutions Architect, U.S. Navy
• Nyla Beth Gawel, Senior Associate, Leading IoT Initiative, Booz Allen Hamilton
• Todd Gurela, Senior Director, Internet of Things, Cisco
• Andrew Jacobs, Strategy and Planning Branch Chief, Defense Health Agency, Department of Defense
• Frank Konieczny, Chief Technology Officer, U.S. Air Force
• Kenneth Morgan, A4, Enterprise Mobile Services, Civil Engineering and Force Protection, U.S. Air Force

IoT is changing the way energy is monitored, supply chains are integrated and cities are becoming intelligent. This panel will look at real deployments of IoT solutions that were able to make real impacts on the business and the mission within DoD, federal government, city government and industry.

• Smart Energy - Energy transportation, storage and use are critical to the mission of the DoD both in garrison and at the tactical edge, and IoT has several critical capabilities to help secure energy resources and reduce energy usage.
• Integration Supply Chain – DoD operates the largest supply chain in the world. IoT is at work in other large supply chains to automate warehouses, track and monitor sensitive items in transit and improve efficiencies and visibility into logistics routing.
• Smart Cities – Cities have many disparate systems for managing everything from traffic to lighting to public safety and waste management. IoT has the capability and is being put into use in cities right now with analytical platforms to integrate the data from multiple sources and platforms for better situational awareness. These capabilities will be discussed in the way they can be applied to garrison use.

 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Panel 3 - Challenges and Future of IoT

• Josh Dixon, Senior Solutions Architect, Samsung Electronics
• Bill Fisher, Information Security Engineer, National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence, National Institutes of Standards and Technology, Department of Commerce
• Philip O'Reilly, Vice President and CTO, Americas and U.S. Federal, Brocade
• David Post, Technology Area Champion – Internet of Things, Information Assurance Directorate, National Security Agency
• Ravi Subramaniam, Technical Director, IEEE Conformity Assessment Program, IEEE Standards Association

This panel will discuss the high-level challenges when deploying/implementing IoT devices to support mission requirements:

• If an organization needs to deploy an IoT device, what are the challenges with doing so? 
• How do they get approved? 
• From where are they procured? 
• How are they certified and accredited for use on the network or in their environment? 
• What are the cyber risks to be concerned with before deploying? 
• What are some best practices for deployment or support? 

 12:00 PM – 12:30 PM
