ISC Security Events and the Security Industry Association (SIA) are pleased to announce that security and public safety leaders Deanne Criswell and Angela Stubblefield will headline the 2019 SIA Education@ISC East Keynote Series. These keynote sessions are open to all attendees at ISC East – the Northeast’s largest security trade show – taking place Nov. 20-21 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City. Criswell will share her insights on emergency preparedness, crisis management and disaster response
In the Day 1 keynote Leveraging Technology to Improve Decision Making: A New Direction in Emergency Management and Disaster Preparedness, Criswell – commissioner of the New York City Emergency Management Department – will highlight how the department is leveraging technology to make informed, data-driven decisions and discuss the department’s strategic vision and the importance of public-private partnerships.
Criswell will share her firsthand experiences and insights on emergency preparedness, crisis management and disaster response, including lessons learned and best practices to take back to your business and organisation.
FAA Perspectives on Addressing Risks
In the Day 2 keynote UAS Security: FAA Perspectives on Addressing Risks Posed by Errant or Malicious UAS, Stubblefield – who has served as the deputy associate administrator for security and hazardous materials safety at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) since 2013 and will assume the role of FAA chief of staff on Nov. 4 – will discuss the FAA’s holistic approach to aerial drone security, working across the full spectrum of risk mitigation from prevention to deterrence, detection and response.
Stubblefield will highlight how the FAA is working with security partners to consider how to set requirements for the aircraft, airspace and airman in order to help reduce security risks, how intent can be difficult to determine and how different tools help to differentiate the clueless and careless from the criminal, which require different response capabilities.
