The morning keynote will be moderated by Dave Turtletaub, CEO, Capstone Inc. Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Donna Bennett and Zach Carwile will present "Domain Initiative" and "Economic Espionage."

The luncheon keynote, "Securing Digital Identities & Information" will be delivered by Bill Conner, CEO, Entrust. Conner is among the most experienced security and infrastructure executives worldwide with a career that spans more than 20 years across numerous high-tech industries. As a corporate turn- around and cyber security expert, Conner has achieved a number of milestones since he joined Entrust as President and CEO in April 2001. He immediately reset the company's priorities in order to regain momentum and return to profitability while also changing the business model by reorganizing the organizational structure and products to focus on extended governments, and the global 1000 extended enterprises. These moves have helped Entrust regain competitiveness as a global leader in securing digital identities and information. Under Conner's leadership, the company has delivered more new products, capabilities and solutions than in any period in the company's history, while also creating an industry-leading service and support organization.
