The security of the global information infrastructure is becoming more important every day. The DHS Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate invests in projects offering the potential for revolutionary changes in technologies that promote homeland security and accelerate the prototyping and deployment of technologies that reduce homeland vulnerabilities. CATCH is a technical forum for DHS researchers to present their results in several topic areas of cyber security.
The goal of CATCH is information exchange between researchers and information security practitioners across government and the private sector.
This 2-day conference included:
- Keynote speakers from government and industry
- 30+ demonstrations of innovative new cyber security technologies
- Proceedings containing complete research papers and project descriptions
