Our mission is to position NVTC and its members involved with the development of cyber security solutions and services as industry thought leaders and go-to resources for those looking to learn more on this critical topic (including the media). The primary focus of this committee is to educate and provide best practices on all aspects of cyber security. Through educational forums and insightful dialogue with NVTC members, the committee will become a valuable resource for those in the Northern Virginia technology community who want to stay updated on the current issues and developments that pertain to cyber security.
