This course is targeted at novice and beginner speakers in order to help them gain confidence in speaking, understand the speaker submission application process, and take them through the skills and techniques they need to create and deliver a talk from beginning to the end. This mini-con is the culmination program that brought the students through the ‘life cycle’ of speaking at conferences. The course talked and walked them through the entire process where they came up with a talk idea, submitted a “Call for Presentations” (CFP), researched and wrote their talk and are now presenting that talk. This mini-con allows them to demonstrate the skills they have learned and hard work they have put in over the past six weeks. During the length of this course, each participant learned how, why and where people speak. Most importantly each student was encouraged with the assurance that THEY can and should share their knowledge and speak at conferences. This affirmation was then leveraged to enable them to learn how to write and submit a CFP, how different conferences review, grade, and judge CFP submissions to decide who will speak. They learned different ways to research and prepare for their talk and how to prepare to write their talk. Multiple class hours were spent covering how to write and give presentations. Additionally, a class module was devoted to minor, but important subjects for presenters such as preparing to go on stage, handling questions, and what to do when the presentation is over. In the middle of that they each gave a five-minute speech in order to get feedback on the basic speaking skills. Thank you for coming and supporting them as they continue make use of their new or improved speaking skills they have acquired. We look forward to them continuing to speak in the future at other local or national events as they expand their skills and opportunities. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for future runs of this course! We all have a wealth of knowledge in our industry and stories that need to be shared from many different perspectives. Hopefully one of the next students in our group of new presenters could be you. ​ ​ September 2021 Cohort Mini-Con Schedule ​ ​ Speaker: Diondr ia Holliman ~ @diondria4309 ​ September 25, 2021 - 10:15 AM EST ​ Talk: Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery: Are you prepared this time? ​ Abstract: ​ The only thing harder than planning for a disaster is explaining why you did not. Recently 2020 disaster recovery stats published by Invenio IT, a well-known global business continuity services agency state: 75% of businesses have nothing planned. Literally no preparation for total or partial loss of data or access to it. 93% of companies without a disaster recovery plan in place who suffer a major data disaster are out of business within one year. Meanwhile, 96% of companies with a trusted backup and disaster recovery plan were able to survive ransomware attacks – one of the most common major data disasters. Business Continuity (BC) and Disaster Recovery (DR) planning are the most crucial elements of a business but are often ignored. Your data is the life blood of your business. If you lose access to it, or it is corrupted, lost, stolen or held in a ransomware attack, how long could you survive without it? My goal for this talk is to provide a practical walkthrough of terms such as RPO, RTO, and general BC + DR considerations including general disaster scenarios and more specialized ones such as ransomware. Tune in to learn more about: Distinct differences between DR and BC Fundamentals for developing an effective BC plan, and training your staff on its use. How to conduct DR testing to ensure your plans work This talk is a perfect start to revise or develop a strong business continuity & disaster recovery plan based on the changing priorities post the pandemic. Even if you have plans in place, it’s time to rewrite your playbook to fit our current risk environment. ​ Biography: ​ Diondria Holliman is on a mission to help companies better prepare their employees for disruptive events in order to respond to incidents or crisis in a calm and forward-thinking manner as it pertains to information systems.

Since the majority of cyber incidents we see today are human enabled, combining areas such as behavioral intelligence and mapping of cybersecurity can improve incident detection and fill in gaps for threat defenses. Furthermore, this will allow us to recognize our behaviors or emotions before deciding how to respond in ways that aligns with our best interest. Alike our cyber hygiene, it is important to focus on our own behavioral science to identify and improve situations as they happen, in order to conquer self destructive behaviors. Cyber incidents may also follow predictable patterns that are clearly identified and therefore provide clarity in how to respond. This presentation is to explore the relevant insights of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework, and how we can map threat actors behaviors to improve detection of cyber incidents, which will ultimately force us to look within in ourselves as human factors in a digitally immersed world. ​ Biography: ​ Yasmine Braithwaite is a Cyber Analyst in the Financial Industry. She has a Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in photography and has earned her A+ & Security+ certificate and had various internships in cyber. She is an alumni of NPower, a nonprofit organization, that focuses on technology training for young adults and has spoken at this year’s 2021, NPower’s Gala.
