2009HomePage

The Third Annual Monterey Homeland Security Conference will provide in-depth content and practical insights to the Mission
Integration theme. This conference is a premier forum that allows government and industry to develop synergistic relationships to
protect the United States from both terrorists and natural disasters while securing our borders. Mission requirements continue to
grow in complexity-resources are limited, there is more pressure to enhance preparedness, expand prevention efforts, and public
expectations are high. Now, more than ever is the time to learn about homeland security efforts that focus on optimizing homeland
security resources with mission integration. Conference speakers are nationally renowned experts who will discuss with participants
strategies for partnerships that ensure the safety and security of our nation.

The 2009 Keynote and Guest Speakers include:
* General Robert Felderman, Deputy Director, Plans, Policy and Strategy, NORAD and USNORTHCOM / J5
* Mr. Frank B. Campbell, Ret. Lt. Gen. US Air Force, Vice President of Advanced Concepts, Lockheed Martin

Panelists: Mr. Curtis Dubay, Director, Maritime Domain Awareness Program Integration Office (CG-51-M), Guy Thomas, Science & Technology Advisor, Global Maritime Awareness, National
Office of Global Maritime Situational Awarenes; Mr. Tony Crowder, Director, Air & Marine Operations Center, Mr. Tom Muir, Director (SES), National Operations Center, Office of Operations
Coordination and Planning, DHS

The DHS National Operations Centers are expanding their capability and are coordinating functions between DHS activities and many DOD and other US and foreign government activities.
These operation centers represent an important capability in achieving homeland security initiatives. These centers also work with federal, state, and local centers to provide vital information
to all of those who are protecting the home front.

This panel will allow key national operations center personnel to discuss progress with their centers and current needs from government, laboratories and industry. Requirements span the
transformation of information gathering into intelligence, the application of precise data decision analysis tools and real time information distribution. This will provide an outstanding
opportunity for industry and government to work together.

Panelists: Leslie Gardner, Director, Los Angeles - Regional Terrorism Threat Assessment Center, Kyle Scarber, Director, State Terrorism Threat Assessment Center, Mr. Leviticus Lewis,
DHS, Mr. Rafael Brinner, DHS/I&A Representative to the Northern California Intelligence Center

The DHS State and Local Mission Planning Operations Centers are now available in forty-two states plus the District of Columbia. These fusion centers represent an important capability in
achieving homeland security initiatives. This paradigm shift in information gathering and sharing, allows first responders to receive information from federal, state, and local sources and
provide vital information to all of those who are protecting the home front.

This panel will allow first responders and representatives from fusions centers to discuss progress with the fusion centers and their current needs from industry. This will provide real time
information for valuable opportunities for industry and the first responders to work together.

Panelists: Mr. David Williams, Senior Associate, Booz Allen Hamilton, Mr. George Weisse, Principal, Booz Allen Hamilton, Mr. Terry Cross, Vice President of Homeland Security Programs,
EADS NA

Across the Federal, State, and Local homeland security landscape, the many agencies involved are initiating programs that emphasize the value of working together even as they share
overlapping responsibilities. Increasingly, these agencies also find themselves in partnership with other public and private entities. Operating in open, distributed environments, civilian and
military agencies are characterized by greater integration and interdependency among diverse sets of players. These agencies tackle complex mission challenges in areas such as disease
control, disaster response, environmental protection, law enforcement, counter terrorism, intelligence gathering and stability operations. Such joint-mission responsibilities require new
organizational and operating strategies that enable Mission Integration—the ability to collaborate and work closely with mission partners.

Panelists: Mr. Tom Foust, Vice President of Sales, Intelsat General Corp., Mr. Pete McNall, Director Air Operations, UAS-AZ , Mr. Edmund Doray, Chief of Concepts & Technology Division,
N-NC Interagency Directorate USNORTHCOM, Mr. Tom Bumbart, Lockheed Martin Corporation, SPAWAR Representative

Mission integration is facilitated through a variety of technologies. This panel will address at a high level existing technologies that currently enable successful execution, including biometrics,
communications, data storage/access, information sharing/handling, metrics, sensors, situational awareness, test & evaluation, and visualization, as just a few examples. In addition to
existing technologies, lessons learned will be provided from past efforts, and technology needs will be addressed to facilitate and enhance mission performance.

Panelists: Ms. Stephanie Tennyson, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Intergovernmental Affairs, DHS, Mr. Frank Reeder, Director, Intelligence & Situational Awareness, Office of Intelligence and
Operations Coordination, Customs and Border Protection, Mr. Wesley Moy, Deputy Director, National Operations Center, Mr. David A. Longoria, CBP Office of Intelligence

One of the stated deficiencies after nine eleven was the inability for the various intelligence and law enforcement agencies to effectively share information. With the evolution of DHS, a highly
effective organization is evolving to provide mission tasking, support information gathering, processing, analysis and near real-time distribution to the user. This capability has significantly
enhanced our national security.

This panel will allow key national intelligence and information sharing personnel to discuss progress made to date and the path forward. Industry, government and laboratories will be exposed
to the technical and organizational challenges of this process and the programs planned for implementation in the near future.

Panelists: Mr. David Aguilar, Chief of the United States Border Patrol, Mr. Robert Mocny, Director, US Visit, Admiral Terry Cross, Vice President Homeland Security Programs, EADS North
America and Former Vice Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard

An impressive collection of top Homeland Executives from Federal and State levels will share their respective breakdown and insights on a number of elements that affect the security of our
borders. Experts in the field will discuss the integration of Biometric Technology, the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, and U.S. VISIT. The panel will discuss ongoing programs, as well
as solutions we have yet to identify. Included in the discussion will be the necessity of interfacing with state and local authorities as well as new threats facing the border security.

Attendees will be encouraged to interact with panel members and ask direct questions. After a short break, during which attendees can interact with the panelists on a personal basis, we will
have one final presentation on this important component of the homeland mission .

Panelists: Dr. Jon Krohmer, Assistant Secretary (Acting) and Chief Medical Officer, Office of Health Affairs, Mr. Seth Stodder, President and CEO, Palindrome Strategies, LLC,
Dr. Robert Kadlec, Vice President, PRTM

Our experience with H1N1 this past spring and our expectations for the re-emergence of this virus in the upcoming fall flu season has served as a remainder about the importance of our
public health preparedness. This panel will discuss DHS, state, and local preparations for the upcoming flu season as well as discuss the overall state of our public health preparedness.
The panelists will discuss their thoughts on a bio-detection architecture, how technology can assist our defenses and our preparedness, and finally the role of coordinated plans to facilitate a
response to a public health event whether natural or man-made.

Highlights of the conference include panel discussions from leading government officials. Each panel will offer valuable insight into the
latest homeland security technologies, leading edge solutions, emergency response systems, network and information security, and
more. These featured panel discussion are outlined below. In addition, there will be opportunities to socialize and network with other
participants, including networking lunches, an opening night reception, and a poster/demo session. On the last day of the conference,
following the special briefs, private lab tours have been set up for our conference participants at the Naval Postgraduate School.
